A Classic World of Warcraft 1.12 guide by WatchYourSixx-Raziya. 3.2.4 - SPECIALIZATIONS. Below you'll find PvP Specs: Intimidate scatter, can mix some points around in BM and the 1 point in imp arcane but I personally use arcane shot a lot while moving. This will use the trinket in slot Z, unless you click button 2, in which case it will equip the trinket at bag coordinates X,Y. Useful for engineers with multiple trinkets on separate cooldowns (i.e. Poker asia 888. Goblin Mortar and Goblin Dragon Gun in slot 13, Goblin Bomb Dispenser and Mithril Mechanical Dragonling in slot 14). Use either trinket.
I was wondering if there is a way to first check if my trinkets are off cooldown and THEN use /use them.
Here is what the problem is.
My macros look BASICALLY something like this.
Problem with this method is when my trinkets are on Cooldown I get bombarded withItem is Not Ready YetandSpell Is Not Ready Yeterror messages, which significantly reduce my casting speed, which is a BIG problem in PVP. You know every failed spell or trinket use trigger a GCD of like 0.5 or more.
I need some way to check if the trinkets are ready before executing the /use command and if they are still on Cooldown, the macro should skip the /use 13, 14 part and proceed directly with the spell-cast.
Here is how I imagine it, USING PSEUDO-CODE to just represent my idea.
Anyone got any idea how to resolve this ? I used the Search function but didn't find anything relevant to my problem.

THISTLE TEA MACROS
This will drink your Thistle Tea then follow up with a Cold Blood and Eviscerate.
#show Thistle Tea
/use Thistle Tea
/castsequence reset=180 Cold Blood, Eviserate
Alternatively, you could designate a Button-Click or a Modifier ¡°[modifier:shift/ctrl/alt]¡± for using your Thistle Tea..
/use [button:2] Thistle Tea
/Castsequence reset=target Premeditation, Ambush, Eviscerate, Thistle Tea, Backstab, Sinister Strike, Hemorrhage
This macro will Premed -> Ambush -> Evis, then use your Tea, then Backstab -> Sinister Strike -> Hemorrhage. The nice thing about this macro is that you could simply use it for Thistle Tea at ANY TIME by just Right-clicking the Macro! This can help save space on your action bar.
To watch the Thistle Tea cooldown, just use the ¡° ¡± macro icon and add ¡°#show Thistle Tea¡± as the first like of your macro.
USE TRINKET MACROS:
I generally use the Equipped Macro Icon addon for these so that I can see exactly what trinkets I have equipped, but I am waiting for the addon to be debugged for 2.0, as it currently interferes with Stealth-Bar toggling.
These lines can also be added to the beginning of other macros, for that ¡°trinket boost¡± prior to putting the smack down!
Use Trinket in Top Slot:

This first one will apply poison to the MH with a ctrl-click and to the OH with an alt-click. It will also show how many doses of poison you have left in your bags.

/use [button:1] 16; [button:2] 17
Left-click it for main hand poison, right-click it for offhand poison. Also, because it is a ¡°/castsequence¡±, if you use the ¡° ¡± macro icon the icon changes to whichever poison you just applied and shows how many uses are left as well!
