Editing WoW:Making a macro (section)

===Equipping items===
There are three commands for equipping items: /equip, /equipslot, and /equipset. /equip simply takes an item name and will equip it to the default slot as if you had right-clicked it in one of your bags (i.e., a one-handed weapon will be equipped to your main hand). /equipslot takes an [[InventorySlotId|inventory slot ID]] and an item name, and equips the item to the specified slot. Note that when using /equipslot, you must respecify the slot for each set of conditionals. If you use the Blizzard equipment manager and save an equipment set, you can use the /equipset command to use it.  Examples:

Equip a weapon to default slot:

 /equip Honed Voidaxe

Equip a trinket to the lower trinket slot:

 /equipslot 14 Carrot on a Stick

Save two equipment sets.  One called Tank that has a sword and shield equipped, one called DPS that has a two handed weapon equipped.  Use this macro to switch between the two:

 /equipset [equipped:Shields] DPS; Tank

If you have a shield on, it'll equip your saved DPS set, otherwise it'll equip your saved Tank set.


Swap between your offhand and a shield:

 /equipslot [equipped:Shields] 17 Merciless Gladiator's Cleaver; 17 Crest of the Sha'tar

'''Note:''' If you are trying to equip two of the same weapon simultaneously into different slots, your macro will not work properly.

'''Note:''' AddOns are allowed to use the equipping functions directly, even during combat. By the same mechanism, you can use the equipping slash commands with AddOns like AfterCast or Chronos. You might have some trouble if the AddOn first checks whether the command is secure; the equipping commands are in the secure command list, though they aren't inherently secure.
