Targeting and features
Living hostile target → No living hostile target: no action
Requirements
- Learned Primal Bite; the source reports its first rank at level 25. Confirm each later rank in your own spellbook.
- Primal Bite selected at rank 1 in Feral Combat, row 4; at least 16 points in a valid allocation are needed under the source calculator rules. Choosing a spec label does not grant this talent.
- Fully rank the source prerequisite for Primal Bite: Savage Fury.
- Bear Form or Dire Bear Form and enough Rage.
Known limitations
- Research-supported beta design; no recorded Forever client macro tests. English spell names need localization on other clients.
- The first matching target wins. Range, line of sight, immunity, resources or a failed cast do not make the macro try the next target.
- No explicit form-change command is included. Confirm the client automatic-unshift setting and enter the required form yourself. Form, cooldown and global-cooldown restrictions still apply.
- This is the current renamed bear ability, not a Cat Form attack or a rotation selector.
- No separate attack-start command is included. Automatic attack behavior, including when the ability cannot be cast, still needs testing in the Forever client. Avoid pressing this key while preserving crowd control.
Notes
- Reference IDs identify the source first ranks. Unranked macro names ask the client to use a learned rank; they do not force rank 1.
- Talent point eligibility and source spell-learning levels are separate. Earned Legacy Talented can alter the point budget, but earlier acquisition or casting remains unverified.

- 4 October 2026, version 1.1.0: removed the separate /startattack command following player feedback. This changes the explicit attack-start behavior; it does not establish that every melee ability starts attacks automatically.
