Rogue macros

Rogues are masters of stealth and assassination, using their cunning and agility to strike from the shadows and eliminate their enemies.

20 macros

  • #showtooltip Blind
    /focus [mod:shift]
    /stopmacro [mod:shift]
    /cast [@focus,harm,nodead][] Blind

    Blinds your focus without touching your current target. Holding Shift instead sets your target as the new focus, so setup and use share one key.

  • #showtooltip Sinister Strike
    /startattack
    /cast Sinister Strike

    Guarantees your auto-attacks are running whenever you press your builder. Rogues lose a surprising amount of damage to auto attack quietly switching off after a stun.

  • #showtooltip Adrenaline Rush
    /cast Adrenaline Rush
    /use 13

    Fires your damage cooldown alongside your first trinket. Swap Adrenaline Rush for Shadow Blades or Deathmark depending on the specialisation you are playing.

  • #showtooltip Cheap Shot
    /cast [@focus,harm,nodead][] Cheap Shot

    Opens on your focus target from stealth without giving up whatever you had selected.

  • #showtooltip Cloak of Shadows
    /stopcasting
    /cast Cloak of Shadows

    Cancels your queued ability and wipes magical effects off you straight away. Cloak is a response to a debuff that has already landed, so speed is the whole value.

  • #showtooltip Distract
    /cast [@cursor] Distract

    Turns enemies at your cursor away from you. Distract is entirely about placement, so removing the reticle step makes it far more usable while stealthed.

  • #showtooltip Feint
    /stopcasting
    /cast Feint

    Drops your current ability and takes the damage reduction now. Feint is pressed in reaction to an area attack that is already on its way in.

  • #showtooltip Grappling Hook
    /cast [@cursor] Grappling Hook

    Fires the hook at your cursor with no confirmation click. Outlaw uses this as a movement ability constantly and the second click is pure friction.

  • #showtooltip Kick
    /cast [@focus,harm,nodead][] Kick

    Interrupts your focus target if you have one, otherwise your current target. Rogues are usually the assigned kicker, which makes this the most-used macro in the class.

  • #showtooltip Kick
    /cast [@mouseover,harm,nodead][] Kick

    Kicks whatever your cursor is over. In dungeons where the caster changes every pull, hovering is faster than keeping a focus up to date.

  • #showtooltip Kidney Shot
    /cast [@focus,harm,nodead][] Kidney Shot

    Spends your combo points stunning your focus target. Usually pointed at a healer while you keep building points on someone else.

  • #showtooltip Sap
    /cast Pick Pocket
    /stopcasting
    /cast Sap

    Pockets your target and then saps them in the same press, so you get the loot without the pickpocket pulling aggro. Works on anything humanoid worth robbing.

Every class shares the same macro syntax, so a good idea usually ports across.
