Revision as of 15:08, 27 February 2011

A stance is a position that a character can occupy that enables or disables certain abilities. Stances most commonly refer to warrior stances. In macros and some action bar add-ons, a stance also refers to forms that non-warrior classes can take, such as [Stealth], [Shadowform], and [Moonkin Form]. "Form" is a synonym for "stance" in macros. They function exactly the same.

Macro Stance Numbers

	Warrior	Druid	Priest	Rogue	Shaman	Warlock
Stance 1	Battle	Cat	[Shadowform] or [Spirit of Redemption]	[Stealth]	[Ghost Wolf]
Stance 2	Defensive	Bear				Demon Form
Stance 3	Berserker	Aquatic		[Shadow Dance]
Stance 4		Travel
Stance 5		Moonkin or Tree of Life
Stance 6		Flight or Swift Flight

Excluding warriors, "nostance" in macros refers to your default form.

If a priest has both Shadowform and Spirit of Redemption, Stance 2 is Spirit of Redemption.

If a druid does not have the talent for Moonkin nor Tree of Life, Stance 5 is Flight Form or Swift Flight Form.

Note that a druid can have only one of Moonkin or Tree of Life talent at this time. Tree of Life Form is a 41 point investment in the Restoration Druid talent tree. Moonkin Form is a 31 point investment in the Balance Druid talent tree. At level 80, a character is able to have 71 talent points. This is one short of allowing both of the forms to be taken.

Warrior stances

Some warrior abilities require a specific stance. For example, [Intercept] only works in [Berserker Stance]. Changing stance will cause a warrior to lose all their rage. At level 58, warriors can train [Stance Mastery] from any warrior trainer, which lets them retain 25 rage. This can be further increased by an additional 50 rage with two points in [Tactical Mastery].

[Battle Stance] - initially enabled, very flexible
[Berserker Stance] - emphasizes offense and threat mitigation
[Defensive Stance] - emphasizes defense and threat generation

-'''Thora Feathermoon''' <[[Alliance]] Outrunner> was a level 25 [[elite]] [[rare mob]] [[night elf]] found in the [[Barrens]].
+If a priest has both Shadowform and Spirit of Redemption, Stance 2 is Spirit of Redemption.
-Thora Feathermoon was one of 4 Alliance Outrunners who were scouting the Barrens. The others were [[Aean Swiftriver]], [[Marcus Bel]], and [[Hannah Bladeleaf]]. The mounted outrunners rode a patrol from [[Bael Modan]] in the south to the [[Lushwater Oasis]] in the north. The outrunners were [[elite]] fighters around level 25 and fought together. Unless prepared or high-level, [[Horde]] characters were advised to keep their distance.
+If a druid does not have the talent for Moonkin nor Tree of Life, Stance 5 is Flight Form or Swift Flight Form.
-== Trivia ==
+Note that a druid can have only one of Moonkin or Tree of Life talent at this time. Tree of Life Form is a 41 point investment in the Restoration Druid talent tree. Moonkin Form is a 31 point investment in the Balance Druid talent tree. At level 80, a character is able to have 71 talent points. This is one short of allowing both of the forms to be taken.
-Possibly related to [[Shandris Feathermoon]], General of the Sentinel Army.
