Monk Windwalker Macros

Ready-to-paste macros for Windwalker Monk: the burst key derived from the current top parses, plus the macros this spec actually uses. Spell names follow the language you pick on this site, so they match your game client.

Every Windwalker burst-key scene on this page folds in Zenith, taken from three top-ranked WarcraftLogs openings per scene, along with trinket /use lines. Raid bosses and Mythic+ AoE pulls both start with Tiger Palm, though the bar differs: in raid Zenith had to appear in at least two of the three openers, in AoE one was enough. Mythic+ single-target pulls start with Rising Sun Kick, again at the two-of-three bar. Whatever the content, the key lines Zenith and your trinkets up with the first global of the pull. The spec macros protect your channels. Tiger Palm without cancelling channels only fires when you are not channeling, or while channeling Spinning Crane Kick, so it will not clip anything else. Whirling Dragon Punch / Strike of the Windlord uses known: checks to put whichever one you talented on the same key, and stops entirely while you channel Fists of Fury or Celestial Conduit. Zenith + trinket + potion uses trinket slot 13 with Zenith, and adds potions only when you hold Shift, so you can choose when to spend them. Detox and Tiger's Lust read your mouseover. Keep spell names in your client language.

A macro can fire only one global-cooldown ability per press — that is the game's limit, not ours. So a burst key is exactly: on-use trinkets + the off-GCD cooldowns top players press in their opener + one opener spell. Nothing else fits.

Off-GCD cooldowns pressed within the first 8 casts by at least 2 of the 3 sampled players, defensives and movement removed. Ends with the first on-GCD opener so everything fires in one press.

Slot 13 / 14: the data cannot tell which slot the on-use trinket sits in, so both are listed; the passive one just prints cannot use.
