/run for i=1,GetNumTrackingTypes() do local a,_,b=GetTrackingInfo(i) if select(1,a)=="Track Demons" then if b==1 then SetTracking(i,false) elseif b==nil then SetTracking(i,true) end end end

Updated: Macro script to toggle Track Humanoids. Works for Dragonflight

/run for i=1,C_Minimap.GetNumTrackingTypes() do local x,_,y=C_Minimap.GetTrackingInfo(i) if x==GetSpellInfo(19883) then C_Minimap.SetTracking(i, not y) z='OFF' if not y then z='ON' end DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("| Track Humanoids |---> "..z) end end

Once used with a HUD display such as Minimaphuge or gathermate's on-board tracking ability the power of this skill is easily underestimated. It is definitely your number one hunter (and druid, of course) skill in battlegrounds. It's radar for your hunter.

Even without this, those HUDs will show you when you are exposed and unprotected by your team, but turn this on and additionally you get the offensive advantage of knowing when the bad guys are vulnerable, when you are getting closed in... and how to get out of it.

Humanoid tracking is like a secret weapon in battlegrounds.

For some reason, even though the spells have been combined into Tracking and no longer appear in the spellbook. I keep seeing "You have learned Track Humanoids" etc in my log while leveling up. I was able to actually select Humanoids from the tracking list and track them from the moment I learned Tracking, but I hadn't yet learned Track Humanoids!

This macro doesnt work anymore since patch 11. Any idea how to fix ? :(

Those looking for a toggle button for hidden and humanoids should use this instead. It toggles humanoid tracking on and off:

/run C_Minimap.SetTracking(10, true)
/run C_Minimap.SetTracking(4, true)
/run C_Minimap.SetTracking(10, false)
/run C_Minimap.SetTracking(4, false)

Find Herbs, Find Ore, and Find Fish can all be used at the same time as any of the Hunter tracking abilities.

Track Beasts will get almost all of the druid forms (except tree, i assume elemental would work, but have not checked) along with shaman wolf, warlock will of course be track demon, death knights will be track undead.

Thanks, those are helpful macros.

This macro only affects Track Hidden, so I changed 9 to 10 and it works perfectly. Thanks!

For me Humanoids are on 9

Works great! Thank you, ever so much. Really makes it easy, especially in cities and such.

This is trainable for 3 silver 60 copper.

is this spell passive now? Seems I can track humanoids at the same time as I'm tracking herbs..

Same here, the minimap is very messy, and the GM keep sending me the mail (third time) telling to delete the wtf-interface-cache folders....doesn't work.
