Form StanceModifier

Requirements

  • Battle Stance learned; first recorded spellbook level 1.
  • Defensive Stance learned; first recorded spellbook level 10.
  • Berserker Stance learned; first recorded spellbook level 30.

Known limitations

  • Research only: not tested in the Forever client. Beta spell names, parser behaviour and requirements may change.
  • English spell names; check your spellbook and actual learned rank. Source IDs identify reference ranks, not a forced rank-1 cast.
  • Range, line of sight, resources, cooldowns and the global cooldown still apply. A macro does not detect readiness or choose your next combat action.
  • No automatic stance switching is bundled into other keys. Changing stance can lose rage; actual retention depends on trained Tactical Mastery and chosen talents.
  • At early levels only learned branches work; choosing an unlearned stance does not select another stance.
  • Keep the listed modifier combination free of conflicting action-bar bindings. Each chosen spell requires its own keypress; this is not a sequence.

Notes

  • Researched 27 September 2026 against source beta build 1.60.1.70009. Spec lists are recommendations; actual learned spells and selected talents determine eligibility.
