Post Dagger/sword switch legal?

Hi,

I've just started playing wow, and during my time as rogue i've heard several people talking about this macro which switches 2xswords to 2xdaggers while in combat.

i.e.
you go stealth, press the macro (so the daggers appear), you do ambush, press the macro again and get your swords back.

That is kinda good, and i've even found the script right on this site. All I want to know is if it's legal, because I don't want a suspension!

The macro goes like this:

/script PickupInventoryItem(16);
/script PickupContainerItem(0, 1);
/script PickupInventoryItem(17);
/script PickupContainerItem(0, 2);


Legal??


Thx. x)
- have a nice day!

That's completely legal. In fact, you can use the mod Weapon Quick Swap if you want to switch weapons by name instead of inventory location.

and the WeaponSwap mod that was mentioned supports multiple switches. In other words, switch to sword/shield, then to sword/sword, then to 2hander, and then back again in one macro...

It is legal, or they wouldn't allow changing your weapon mid-fight (which is true for other items)

what you need is here:
http://capnbry.net/wow/

it is near the bottom and is called WeaponQuickSwap. The image he has as an example should explain how to use it. Post back here if you have any problems...

As an example though, here is what my script looks like:

/script WeaponSwap("1handSword", "Shield", "DualWield1", "DualWield2", "2Hander");

I believe you can use wildcards too, in other words you could do something like this:

/script WeaponSwap("Dagger", "Sword", *, "Mace"); and it would only switch the sword for a mace and leave the dagger alone. The readme included with his addon should explain this in more detail...
