Hello everyone, I'm wondering if any of you have experience with creating basic macros for World of Warcraft. Thank you in advance!

Well, this is a 2 way question. Are you thinking a basic macro in wow as in /m and create a simple /use healthstone or are you aiming for GSE creation. First one I've known of since early TBC (Vanilla player here). GSE I started mid Shadowlands all thanks to you. I've learned thro decompiling your macro's and tried and failed that way :) What took me the longest to grasp was keypress and keyrelease xD That it could be anything xD

I remember in WoTLK I made a macro sequence for my friend, so he only had to press 1 key for his druid tank xD He tanked the entire icecrown with just 1 key back then spamming it to Narnia and beyond xD

Yup, and still do for targeting macros, and support macros, for long fights as an example I will use innervate on my assist target, or named on cd for long healer fights to help off set mana on long fights, or battle rezes for assist targets, or have several set up for target character name to brez on the fly for mythic +, or cancel aura macros for ice block or pally shield, or interevene/taunt for adds if tank goes down, off setting equip macro for sword and board, and a cobbeled tanking macro for fury/arms spec on my warrior, short cut hot keys for chains, it can get crazy, but the things we do to save a wipe :)
