WoW:API CastShapeshiftForm

Submitted by Naliya

Casts Shapeshift on yourself. This is class dependant - not all classes have special abilites.

 CastShapeshiftForm(index);

Parameters

Arguments

index

relates to the different forms:

Druid

• 1 = Bear/Dire Bear Form
• 2 = Aquatic Form
• 3 = Cat Form
• 4 = Travel Form
• 5 = Moonkin Form

Rogue

• 1 = Stealth

Warrior

• 1 = Battle Stance
• 2 = Defensive Stance
• 3 = Beserker Stance

Returns

nil

Example

 CastShapeshiftForm(1);

Result

Shapeshifts caster into Bear Form.

Note

Note, casting the spell again changes back to caster form. So, for instance;

 if (GetNumShapeshiftForms()==1) then CastShapeshiftForm(1);end;

In this case, the script checks if you're in Bear/Dire Bear form, and if so, casts the spell to change you back to Caster form. It has the same restrictions as other casting spells in that the trigger event needs to involve a keystroke or mouse click.

To use a particular shape in a macro and avoiding error messages, use:

 /script icon, name, active = GetShapeshiftFormInfo(index);if (active==1) then CastShapeshiftForm(index);end;

where index is the number of the shape as given above.
