Ever have a problem understanding a WoW macro? Fitzcairn’s Macro Explain-o-matic to the rescue.
![]()
Fitzcairn’s Macro Explain-o-matic is a simple tool intended to help make macros more accessible for World of Warcraft players.
I got the idea for this site after spending hours on the web myself trying to figure out why my macros weren’t working. It turned into an interesting side-project that I puttered on here and there before gestating as the Explain-o-matic.
Macros are an extraordinarily powerful tool that increases player effectiveness. My hope is that the Explain-o-matic will help every World of Warcraft player take advantage of what macros offer.
Oh, and about the name: I picked "Explain-o-matic" randomly one day and just ran with it. It seems to fit the WoW theme better than any of the others I could think of.
Seems like a great niche tool. Just don’t expect it to decode your LuaFu Macros, it’s limited in what it can explain and small add-ons are not in that realm.
If you know of any great WoW tools, please let us know in the comments.
