This is a repost of http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread.html?topicId=89400854&sid=1&pageNo=1 since it’s getting close to the 300 post limit.
I’ve gathered many of the most useful macros from the original thread and listed them here. Feel free to contribute.

BEFORE YOU ASK ABOUT HOW TO MAKE A SPECIFIC MACRO PLEASE CHECK THE ORIGINAL POSTS FOR THE MACRO YOU’RE LOOKING FOR

I advise to always include the line /stopcasting at the end of all macros which deal with abilities not on the global cooldown. This prevents you from getting „another action is already in progress“ errors, so you can execute actions faster.

Adding # show SKILL NAME to the beginning of a macro will display cooldown info for that ability on the macro button.
Using # showtooltip SKILL NAME will also show the tooltip on mouseover instead of the macro name.


Stance-dancing macros

These are macros that use an ability which only works in specific stances (such as Charge) and switch to that stance if you aren’t already in it.

For abilities in Battle Stance:
/cast [stance:1] SKILL NAME; Battle Stance
/stopcasting

For abilities in Defensive Stance:
/cast [stance:2] SKILL NAME; Defensive Stance
/stopcasting

For abilities in Berserker Stance:
/cast [stance:3] SKILL NAME; Berserker Stance
/stopcasting

Obviously, you must change „SKILL NAME“ to the name of the ability you want to use.
The part in the brackets checks if you are in Battle Stance. If it evaluates true, these macros will cast the ability you specified, otherwise the correct stance.


Berserker Rage tanking macro:
/cast [stance:2] Berserker Stance
/castsequence [stance:3] reset=30 Berserker Rage, Defensive Stance
/stopcasting

Stance Switching in one button (by Snapbone):
/cast [nostance:2, modifier:ctrl] Defensive Stance;
/cast [stance:2, modifier:ctrl] Berserker Stance;
/cast [nostance:1, nomodifier:ctrl] Battle Stance;
/cast [stance:1, nomodifier:ctrl] Berserker Stance;

You only need 1 button bound + ctrl to use all the stances.
Let‘s imagine it‘s bound to "F".
Defensive/Berserker Stance -> Battle Stance: F
Battle Stance -> Berserker Stance: F
Battle Stance -> Defensive Stance: Ctrl + F
Defensive Stance -> Berserker Stance: Ctrl + F

Tanking

Cast Sunder Armor on multiple mobs via mouseover without changing targets (by Puffypaladin):
/cast [target=mouseover, harm, nodead] Sunder Armor

Intervene the party member who’s getting his butt kicked by your target:
/cast [help] Intervene; [target=targettarget] Intervene

Revenge/Shield Block:
/cast Shield Block
/stopcasting
/cast Revenge


Trinkets

Activate the top trinket:
/use 13

Activate the bottom trinket:
/use 14

It’s currently not possible to show the cooldown of the macro you currently have in a trinket slot, but you can show it for a specific trinket. For example:
# show Earthstrike
/use 13

This will always show the cooldown of your Earthstrike trinket, regardless of what you actually equipped in the trinket slot.


Activate the top trinket and Death Wish at the same time:
/use 13
/stopcasting
/cast Death Wish

Same as above, with Blood Fury:
/use 13
/stopcasting
/cast Blood Fury
/stopcasting
/cast Death Wish


Equip stuff

Equip Shield and 1H (by Jimboe):
/stopmacro [equipped:Shields]
/equip Shield of Ownage
/equip Sword of Pointyness

Equip 2H:
/stopmacro [noequipped:Shields]
/equip Big Hammer of Pwnage

Equip Dual Wield (by Jimboe):
/equipslot 16 Main Hand of Mainhandness
/equipslot 17 Jimboe's Leet Off Hand

2H & 1H/Shield Toggle:
/equip [equipped:Shields] Big Hammer of Pwnage
/equip [noequipped:Shields] Main Hand
/equip [noequipped:Shields] Shield


Other

Setting Raid Targets:
/run SetRaidTarget("target",n);

n being one of the following:
0 = no icon
1 = Yellow 4-point Star
2 = Orange Circle
3 = Purple Diamond
4 = Green Triangle
5 = White Crescent Moon
6 = Blue Square
7 = Red "X" Cross
8 = White Skull


Charge/Intercept Spammer (by Jimboe):
/cast [nocombat,stance:1] Charge; [combat,nostance:3] Berserker Stance; [nocombat,nostance:1] Battle Stance; [combat,stance:3] Intercept

An example of multiple conditions having different actions assigned to each.
1) If you are not in combat AND in Battle Stance cast Charge
2) If you are in combat AND NOT in Berserker Stance cast Berserker Stance
3) If you are not in combat AND NOT in Batte Stance cast Battle Stance
4) If you are in combat AND in Berserker Stance cast Intercept


Shield Bash/Pummel macro. Always chooses the correct action for interrupting spell casts:
/cast [stance:1/2,noequipped:Shields] Berserker Stance; [stance:1/2,equipped:Shields] Shield Bash; [stance:3] Pummel
/stopcasting

Dismount -> Charge:
/dismount [mounted]
/cast [stance:1] Charge; Battle Stance
/stopcasting

Cleave/Whirlwind Spam Macro:
# show Whirlwind
/cast Cleave
/cast Whirlwind

IS there any way to equip shield, use defensive stance, spell reflection, equip last used weapon (or maybe a decided weapon, and used last stance (if it doesn't work berserker stance will do well)?

Maybe go on if spell reflect is on cooldown or something?

Equipping two different weapon sets isn't going to work in this macro.

I'll just repost my question here if that's ok (and giving you a bump :) ), sorry about that just hope I can get an answer:


Q u o t e:
I'm using an Overpower macro that looks like this:
#show Overpower
/cast [nostance:1] Battle Stance; Overpower

which works fine to press twice after the enemy dodges.

The problem is that I would like to see the "Overpower ready" lightup on the button, while being in another stance. I thought the #show statement would do that but no. I'm just too slow to catch dodges in the combat log/screen...

Is this possible, or are there any addons around that can show a big blinking light or something when the enemy dodges.

(from the stickied macro thread)

This won't make Overpower light up outside of Battle Stance since it's not usable then. I'd just use Scrolling Combat Text to make it show when my target dodges.

Excellent compilation, very useful. This should replace the current sticky for sure. Good job Fantasio.

Some minor comments.
It might be nice put up a reference to the original posts by Iriel from WoW-US forums

I'd have a use for a macro that casts victory rush if I press the button in 20sec after killing a mob, otherwise it would cast heroic strike.

I have tried to find a macro like that and have even tried to make my own, but I haven't got it to work. I hope you guys can help me.

I have been Arms spec since i created my warrior, now at 70 i would like to go DW fury spec (i am not really bothered what people say is the best pvp spec). Working on th fact that overpower is based on weapon damage i would like an overpower macro that does:

-Switches the Battle stance
-Equips 2h weapon
-Casts Overpower

I can easily switch back to DW afterwards with the macro i already have.

to Shinobi:
The problem is that switching a weapon in combat triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown, so you will lose that time before you can do the Overpower, anyway, knowing that this should work fine:

#show Overpower
/equip [noequipped:Two-Handed Swords] <twohander>
/castsequence Battle Stance, Overpower

I haven't tested this but it should switch the weapon at the same time as going into Battle stance and then do Overpower on the second click (change Two-Handed Swords to whatever twohanded group your weapon is in).

@ Avarice
Charge-stance change macro was in the old thread, but if you don't want to go through that one you can use this one ;) :
/cast [stance:1] Charge; [stance:3] Intercept
/stopcasting
/cast [nostance:3] Berserker Stance


I also include a Bloodrage in this macro, then it goes:
/cast [stance:1] Charge; [stance:3] Intercept
/stopcasting
/cast Bloodrage
/stopcasting
/cast [nostance:3] Berserker Stance

works even if Bloodrage is on cd (although you get the error message)
