Deadly poison swap to instant poison macro for Assassination ROGUES

Found this on elitest jerks forum:

2 macros:

hit this one when you log on (initialization macro)
/run ws=CreateFrame("FRAME","WS")u=UseEquipmentSet function g()d=nil for i=1,40 do n,_,_,s,_,_,x,c=UnitDebuff("target",i)if n=="Deadly Poison IX" and c=="player" then d=(x-GetTime()>5 and s==5) end end if d then u("IP") else u("DP") end end

this turns weapon swapping on/off
/run if not aso then ws:RegisterEvent("UNIT_COMBAT")ws:SetScript("OnEvent",g)DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage ("Autoswap On")aso=true else ws:UnregisterEvent("UNIT_COMBAT")DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("Autoswap Off")aso=nil end

you'll need 2 item sets in the blizzard itemrack, one named IP and one named DP

For anyone that can't read the code, here is what it does:
- You target something that is in combat that doesn't have a 5 stack of your deadly poison, it swaps to the DP set
- When you hit 5 stacks of deadly poison, it'll swap to the IP set
- When DP has 5 seconds remaining, it'll swap back to the DP set
- When DP is refreshed, it'll swap back to the IP set

You have to do nothing. The only thing on your end is the annoying GCD's caused by the swaps.

There is some debate on weather to use a fast or slow OH for your IP OH set, slow would provide higher burst mutilates while faster more focused attacks and more poison application :/

Been using this with a fast OH and it works pretty awesome!

good deal penatgram

The update in 3.3:

Deadly Poison: In addition to its existing effects, when a rogue applies Deadly Poison to a target which has already reached the maximum number of applications, this will also trigger the poison which the rogue is using on his or her other weapon.

-I think this means the same effect as this macro would be taking place but without the global cool down from the weapon swap!
