🚀 Getting Started with AutoSpec

🚀 AutoSpec: Getting Started

    Your essential setup guide: install addons, configure your mouse, bind modifier keys, and import GSE sequences and WeakAuras.

📈 What Sets AutoSpec Apart

AutoSpec Is Not Just Another Damage Macro

    AutoSpec is a complete replacement for Blizzard’s standard combat experience, built from the ground up. Where most WLM posts offer basic GSE sequences focused only on damage, AutoSpec handles all your class and specialization abilities with custom sequences, a fully integrated WeakAura user interface, and real-time detection triggers for every situation.

Next-Level Optimization

    Instead of leaving you with a static macro and no dynamic feedback, AutoSpec uses responsive triggers and custom HUD elements to provide clear, on-screen guidance exactly when you need it.

    It replaces the standard UI and rotation guesswork with an adaptive combat engine—offering a smarter, cleaner, and more interactive way to play than anything else on WLM. Every detail, from live automation logic to in-game prompts and event-based triggers, is hand-built and maintained with a game developer’s mindset.

🔍 Preview & Guide

⏹️ Center Display

    The Center Display contains everything you need to see for core combat decisions, organized by priority:

1. Priority Display: Urgent abilities like defensives or major heals that override everything else.
2. Core Abilities: Your main rotation and combat logic, visible when nothing urgent is active.
3. Progress Bars: Shows active buffs, defensives, or movement effects you need to keep track of—always displays the most important bar.

⬇️ Action Button

    Shows you when to use interrupts or key cooldowns that aren’t part of your main attack sequence.

⬅️ (💎 AutoSpec +) Global Utility HUD

    Started as a slot for general, non-spec-specific abilities—now includes raid buffs, racials, trinkets, and resurrection spells used to support the group.

➡️ (💎 AutoSpec +) Conditional Utility HUD

    Displays only when a support ability (cleanse, dispel, save, focus-cast) must be used—if it appears, you’re expected to press it.

↔️ (💎 AutoSpec +) Situational Utility HUD

    Appears only when relevant—glows when crowd control, interrupts, or utility actions are suggested. Designed for situational tools you need to react to enemy abilities or specific scenarios.

HUD shown expanded for reference—actual gameplay uses a smaller, minimalist display.

Beast Mastery: Hunters with a god complex.

📝 Ability Overview

Ability	Description
Kill Shot	Disabled by default in line with top guide recommendations. You can manually enable it in the GSE NOMOD sequence if desired.
Multi-Shot	Triggered when three or more enemy nameplates are within range and Beast Cleave is not active. Uses ranged detection to prompt casting for AoE activation.
Hunter’s Mark	Auto-applied to your target on swap while solo or in PvP; in dungeons/raids, automation is disabled to prevent overwriting boss marks. WeakAura will prompt you if your boss target is missing the mark.
Flare	Auto-casts at @cursor in PvP combat to reveal stealthed enemies as you engage.

📥 Imports & Builds

AutoSpec: WeakAura

AutoSpec: GSE Sequences

🧬 Approved Talent Builds

    Approved talent builds are included in the ‘Talents’ panel of the ..._NOMOD GSE sequence. Each specialization provides, at least, an AoE and single-target PvE build.

• Builds are based on top PvE/PvP guides and tailored to AutoSpec’s logic.
• You may use other builds, but stability is only guaranteed with included imports.
• Build requests for PvP or leveling are always welcome when based on trusted, reputable guides to ensure smooth integration with existing builds.

ℹ️ About /macro Imports

    Importing the GSE sequences adds a set of standalone macros to your /macro panel. These one-off tools are not part of the rotation but assist with targeting and utility. Examples include stance switching, context-sensitive casts, and focus or mouseover support.

🕹️ Controls & Keybindings

	Combat	Combat	Enemy	Ally
Nomod	Damage
Shift	Multi-Shot	Initiate Combat
Ctrl	Cobra Shot
Alt	Traps

⌨️ Keybinding Detection

    AutoSpec automatically scans your action bars on login or when you use /reload to detect and display your current keybinds.

    If you move abilities after this scan, the display will not update until you reload your UI again.

---

    To disable keybind text, remove %c from the Text 1 field on the Display tab of the relevant WeakAura. Do not delete the field entirely.

Druids & Warriors:

• Use identical keybinds across all combat stances/forms.
• Avoid placing combat abilities on Travel Form bars (Druids).

📚 Quick Answers & FAQ

🔻 What key should I bind for the macro?

Bind a mouse button to Numpad + using your mouse software (Razer Synapse, Logitech G Hub, etc). Avoid binding to 1, Q, or function keys.

🔻 Why is nothing firing when I hold the button?

Check the following:

1. Continuous input is enabled (50ms)
2. All four GSE sequences are bound to Numpad +
3. No conflicting keybinds
4. You’re holding the button, not tapping it

🔻 Why won’t modifier prompts go away?

Make sure your mouse sends continuous Numpad + while holding the button and pressing modifiers. Double-check there are no in-game modifier keybinds and that the WeakAura is imported.

🔻 Why do I need repeat functionality?

GSE macros need steady, repeated input. Set your mouse to turbo/continuous on Numpad + (suggested: 50ms).

🔻 Where do I find talent builds?

Talent builds are included in the NOMOD GSE sequence’s Configuration panel. Some spec pages also link recommended builds.

🔻 How do I update specializations?

Re-import the latest strings from the WLM spec page. Use the Wago Companion app to stay synced.

🔻 Do I still need WeakAuras with GSE?

Yes. GSE handles macros; WeakAura manages HUD, prompts, and tracking.

🔻 Why don’t I see movement abilities or cooldowns?

AutoSpec does not automate movement abilities or long cooldowns. Use those manually or as prompted.

🔻 Can this get me banned?

No. AutoSpec only uses Blizzard-approved addons—no bots or API manipulation.

Updated during Patch 11.1.5 - Managed via Obsidian

[Feros]

What speed you run this at ? I’d give it a try later ^^,

[Jasper]

Tested it.

ilvl 466.38
crit 41%
haste: 25%
Mastery 35%
Vers 9%

6 mill dps run on training dummy: 93.2 k dps with lust, food, rune, flask.

Is around 35-55k lower than the Gimli one… It also does NOT fire off Cobra shot. If you weave that in manually, then it bumps the dps up a bit.

Good attemt tho at a all inclusive, no matter what talents, macro.

Ran at 80ms, with these talents: B0PA5ZKiUcehijAKxoiI1CP3g6AgWSAoQAAAAAAAAAAAoBhEaikQC5AJhmQaRJJRiQoFJJB

Macro seems to hang and wait alot on abilities to be fired of.

[drupollo_2540]

thanks for your macro, i however do not play all-in-one macros do not work unfortunately. i have some problems gse does not translate the macro in the language i do not know why

[Aerrek]

Hey Jasper,

By design it does not autonomously use Cobra Shot. Cobra Shot cannot be efficiently sequenced because it is power based. That’s why my accompanying Weakaura will prompt you to use Cobra Shot when you are approaching focus cap.

As to ‘hanging’ on some abilities: During the initial sequencing of the macro at the start of combat (especially after waiting for all CDs to be ready), it is attempting to cast many spells at once. You’ll notice that during actual gameplay the queue is much smoother. Additionally, the more non-passive talent choices you make will alter this ‘hanging’ period.

If you look into how I setup the Cooldown loops, you’ll notice two loops in particular:

1. The First loop houses long cooldowns
2. The Second loop houses shorter 'regular dps’ cooldowns.

As it is more important to prioritize getting your short (10-30sec cooldowns) out first for long term dps, the macro spends more time repeating this loop. It then moves to the longer cooldowns because it’s not as detrimental for a 2min cooldown to be on hold for 1-5sec as it is for a 10 sec cooldown to be on hold for 1-5sec.

You can adjust this priority ratio, if you’d like, by changing the number of times the macro repeats each loop.

• Note that Priority List Step Functions (short CD loop) take much longer to run than Sequential Step functions (long CDs).

Admittedly, the biggest downside of this macro is that when Beast Cleave is known it will use Multi-shot more regularly, even if you’re doing single target damage. However, this cannot be avoided as GSE cannot detect proximity based targets, especially for ranged DPS.
I’ve countered this by implementing a [known:Beast Cleave] conditional.

I use an array of [known:XXXXX] and [noknown:XXXXX] conditionals to help the macro make smart decisions on priority based casting. This is how I achieve all talents.

Also, I’ve checked out Gimli’s ST macro. I’m achieving the same DPS. (within +/- 3%) so I’m not sure where the 35-55k DPS loss is coming from. That macro functions as a straight sequence (no priority cast looping) with [known] conditionals. Respectfully, it is more rudimentary, which is why I cannot understand the ~30% DPS loss you are experiencing with mine.

Thanks for you feedback! I’ll update the usage description in the future

[Aerrek]

Hey drupollo,

I use [known:XXXXX] and [noknown:XXXXX] conditionals to help the mcaro efficiently decide between rotation priority based on your talent choices. Is there any specific instance of a talent not working in your case? I’d be happy to look into it for you.

Thanks

[Aerrek]

Hey Feros,

I’m running this at 50ms.

I think it’s important to understand that the GCD is character specific, based on your gear. Essentially, GSE macros are not ‘timing’ based, they are ‘probability’ based. Long story short, the macro should work at a range of different speeds.

I hope you enjoy and would love to hear your feedback!

Thanks

[robadabobada]

hi mate i gave this a whirl and im getting zero barb shots going off so the dps is very low i also ran it at 50-150ms

[Aerrek]

I keep hearing about this barbed shot issue but it’s working for me

Can you send me your talents?

I went ahead and updated the macro priority loop while testing.

GSE updated

[Shayu]

It’s also not firing for me; my talents are the ones from Wowhead Mythic+ build. It also doesn’t appear to be casting Cobra Shot when I’m holding Shift, only Multi Shot. On a different note, what addons are you using? I’d love to get my WoW to look like that.

[robadabobada]

I use the archon M+ and raid talents but I just read that comment and cobra isn’t firng only multi as well

[robadabobada]

just gave it another go and Definity no cobra shot and its only doing multi shot over the cobra and the barbed is falling off with but its in the bar ready to go

[Aerrek]

@shayu @robadabobada,

When the servers come back up I’ll give it some more attention, figure out whats happening

[Aerrek]

@shayu, @robadabobada,

I wish I could tell you that I found the source of your issue. No matter what talents I select, the macro seems to be working as intended. If you are still having the issue after update please message me with specifics

Multi-shot as SHIFT mod if Beast Cleave is known

• This is a good indicator that you are doing primarily AoE content, also to refresh Beast Cleave buff)

Cobra Shot as SHIFT mod otherwise.

However,

I made huge updates to the GSE and small updates to the WA.

Big changes: Barbed Shot is now on SHIFT and Multi/Cobra are on CTRL. Binding shot has been removed from modifier usage.

Key barbed shot WA triggers are coming straight from wowhead:

Should be a DPS boost

[Bigant]

would one of these combat systems be possible for cata?
one for SV in cata classic would be incredible

[Aerrek]

@Bigant

for cata

Maybe in the future (distant future) I will get around to Cata but for now I have my hands full with creating a system for every Retail spec.

[ikory]

Hey Aerrek, your WeakAura links in here goes to shaman

[Aerrek]

@ikory

goes to shaman

Oops fixed it

[ikory]

I played around with this. It’s outperforming the others, including my own BM macros. Nice job.

[iSaekko]

I use your fury war macro and it works great. But I’m trying to set up the BM one for my gf and I couldn’t get it to work on hers so I tried the same on mine and it doesn’t work. On hers it just spams mend pet and on mine I just get a Lua Error that says something about CastSpellByName(name[, target])
