How to Assign Macros to Spells in WOW
Macros are one of the more advanced features of the interface of "World of Warcraft." They allow you to create complex commands that can make your game play more efficient, as well as helping to keep your spells and abilities better organized. Assigning macros to spells is useful for many purposes, such as assigning an entire spell rotation to the convenience of a single key. You still will need to press the macro button each time you want to cast the next spell in the sequence, however. Macros cannot in any way automate any aspects of the game play.
