Rogue Assassination Macros

Ready-to-paste macros for Assassination Rogue: 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.

This Assassination Rogue page does not show a burst key yet. The key is normally derived from the openers of top WarcraftLogs parses, folding in the off-GCD cooldowns that several of those openers press together, and for Assassination there are not yet enough sampled openers to separate cooldowns from the regular rotation with confidence. Rather than guess, the page leaves that section empty until the data supports it, and the spec macros below stand on their own. Check back after the next data refresh if you want a ready-made burst button. Four spec macros are listed. Deathmark is paired with /use 13, so your top trinket slot fires on the same press. Kick goes to your focus when the focus is a living enemy and otherwise hits your target, which suits assigned interrupts in Mythic+. Shadowstep checks your mouseover first, letting you jump to a unit without retargeting. Tricks of the Trade uses an @NAME placeholder: replace NAME with your tank's character name before saving, or it falls back to your current target. Copy the text, set this site to your client language so names match your spellbook, and paste it in game.

Burst key

No burst key for this spec yet — it needs enough sampled openers to tell off-GCD cooldowns apart from the rotation.
