FAQ
How can I improve my poison application with macros?
You can create macros to apply specific poisons to your weapons. For example, a macro can combine applying Instant Poison to your main hand and Crippling Poison to your off-hand with a single button press.
Are there macros for managing stealth abilities more effectively?
Yes, macros can be used to cast stealth abilities like Sap or Cheap Shot on your current target or a focus target without breaking stealth. This improves opener efficiency.
Can macros help with energy management as an Assassination Rogue?
While macros can't directly manage your energy bar, they can help by chaining abilities together, ensuring you're not overcapping energy or wasting global cooldowns. This leads to more efficient energy expenditure over time.
