What it does

Uses the poison you name, then applies it to your main-hand weapon (slot 16), or to your off-hand weapon (slot 17) while Shift is held.

How to use

Make one macro per poison (for example Instant on the main hand, Deadly on the off hand), type the poison's exact name, and press it out of combat.

    • The button shows whatever the macro will cast: its icon, cooldown and tooltip

  3. /use [mod:shift] 17; 16
    • Option 1:Use the item in equipment slot 17When:Shift is held

Limitations
