WoW Forever Hunter Macros

Before You Copy These

The macro builder and general examples cover how to create a macro, the 255-character limit, Mend Pet, and a conditional Hunter's Mark button. This page adds the hunter pet and utility jobs.

Each spell below exists for Hunter in client build 1.60.1.70862, and each command is in that client's slash command strings. Those checks don't run the game, so try each button on a safe target first. Macro conditions can't be read from those tables, so each one here traces to a Forever guide or a sourced pattern.Confirmed, a first-party sourceSource: Wago Tools: SpellName and SkillLineAbility, checked Nov 8, 2026.

Pet Attack Macros

Send the Pet With Your First Sting

#showtooltip Serpent Sting
/petattack [@target,harm,nodead]
/cast [@target,harm,nodead] Serpent Sting

The pet goes in on the same press as the shot. RankedBoost's Forever hunter page uses this shape for Arcane Shot and notes the pet attacks whatever the key fires at, so pick your target with care in a group. Serpent Sting is listed at level 4.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: RankedBoost: Hunter macros; Wago Tools: SpellLevels, checked Nov 8, 2026.

Summon Hawk and Send the Pet

#showtooltip Summon Hawk
/petattack [@target,harm,nodead]
/cast [@target,harm,nodead] Summon Hawk

Summon Hawk needs 15 points in Beast Mastery, and the client lists its first rank at level 25. RankedBoost's Forever Beast Mastery page pairs the same /petattack line with this talent.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: RankedBoost: Beast Mastery Hunter macros; Wago Tools: TraitCond and SpellLevels, checked Nov 8, 2026.

Intimidation With a Pet Order

#showtooltip Intimidation
/petattack [@target,harm,nodead]
/cast [harm,nodead] Intimidation

Intimidation is a Beast Mastery talent on row 5. RankedBoost's Forever Beast Mastery page pairs it with this /petattack line.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: RankedBoost: Beast Mastery Hunter macros; Wago Tools: TraitNode, checked Nov 8, 2026.

Attack and Recall on One Key

/petattack [nomod:ctrl]
/petfollow [mod:ctrl]

Press to attack, Ctrl-press to recall. The client's /petfollow handler reads macro conditions, and RankedBoost's Forever pages use both of those modifier forms. We found no page showing this exact pair on one key.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: Blizzard UI source: PET_FOLLOW; RankedBoost: Hunter macros; RankedBoost: Paladin macros, checked Nov 8, 2026.

Utility Macros

Feign Death With a Pet Recall

#showtooltip Feign Death
/petfollow
/cast Feign Death

Use this when you want out of the fight, because it recalls the pet on every press. The client stores no global cooldown on Feign Death and lists it at level 30. RankedBoost's version holds the recall behind Ctrl, which leaves the pet fighting on a plain press.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: Blizzard UI source: PET_FOLLOW; RankedBoost: Hunter macros; Wago Tools: SpellCooldowns, checked Nov 8, 2026.

Melee Key for Survival

#showtooltip Raptor Strike
/cast [harm,nodead] Raptor Strike
/cast [harm,nodead] Mongoose Bite

The client stores no global cooldown on Raptor Strike, so the second line isn't blocked by the first. RankedBoost notes that Mongoose Bite lights after a dodge, and that Survival's Expose Prey can light it on a marked target. The client lists Raptor Strike at level 1 and Mongoose Bite at level 16.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: RankedBoost: Hunter macros; Wago Tools: SpellCooldowns, checked Nov 8, 2026.

Two Traps on One Key

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:ctrl] Frost Trap; Freezing Trap

Bare press casts Freezing Trap, and Ctrl casts Frost Trap. This combines RankedBoost's [mod:ctrl] pattern with two checked traps. The client lists them at levels 20 and 28.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: RankedBoost: Hunter macros; Wago Tools: SpellLevels, checked Nov 8, 2026.

One Aspect Key by Combat State

#showtooltip
/cast [combat] Aspect of the Hawk; Aspect of the Cheetah

Hawk in combat, Cheetah out of it. RankedBoost's Forever hunter page builds its Aspect key on [combat]. Each press casts again, so press it once and leave it. The client lists Aspect of the Hawk at level 10 and Aspect of the Cheetah at level 20.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: RankedBoost: Hunter macros; Wago Tools: SpellLevels, checked Nov 8, 2026.

Pet Behavior These Macros Assume

The first three rows come from RankedBoost's Forever hunter page. A beta tester reported the chain-pulling behavior on a Voidwalker and said the same happened on Hunter. Check how your pet behaves on a safe pull.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: RankedBoost: Hunter macros; Blizzard forums: Warlock petattack behavior, checked Nov 8, 2026.

Why a Hunter Macro Does Nothing

Swipe sideways to see all columns.

The keybind row comes from a community macro guide on Blizzard's forums, which notes Shift 1 to 6 and Ctrl 1 to 6 have default bindings. It isn't Forever-specific. The rank and language rows come from Kami Labs' Forever guide.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: Blizzard forums: Useful Macro Templates; Kami Labs: WoW Forever Macros, checked Nov 8, 2026.

How to Adapt These Macros

RankedBoost leaves Alt free for self cast on its class pages, so Ctrl and Shift are the safer modifiers if you use self cast. The (Rank n) ending is documented in the client's macro help.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: RankedBoost: Hunter macros; Wago Tools: GlobalStrings, MACROHELPTEXT_LINE4, checked Nov 8, 2026.
