Hey guys, looking for a macro that does the following:

If weapon A equipped, equip weapon B;
If weapon B equipped, equip weapon A;
end;

Usecase is rogue switching between dagger and slow 1h

I have supermacro installed but no luck getting anything of the sort to work

It's possible but you're better off using WeaponQuickSwap
http://addons.us.to/addon/weaponquickswap

Be sure to read the included readme.txt file for usage.

Does this manage to avoid a global cooldown? I'm kinda confused about when a global cooldown is triggered (and is that blizzlike on nost?) It seems changing your mh in combat always triggers a gcd, except when you swap your mh/oh directly.

in combat weapon swaps should always trigger a gcd (blizzlike)

There shouldn't really be any way of avoiding the GCD trigger, however what can be done is delay the weapon swap until an instant ability triggered a GCD and then immediately swap the weapon (only triggers, does not require free GCDs)
