Keyboard macros

[MajorTomServo]

I just had a birthday last week, and was the lucky recipient of a mechanical gaming keyboard. I'm in love with it because of the clicky clicky, but it also has five macro keys. Right now, I'm only using one, which I've bound to "X + 5" for easy dispenser requests in TF2. That leaves four that I have yet to find a use for.

So escapees, any of you use keyboard macros? If yes, what and for what game?

First up, where are they located? I have a Roccat Arvo and the three macro keys are under the space bar, so I mapped them to replace shift, control and alt. This is because I only started using a pc for games about 5 years ago, so I never got used to using my pinky finger. This was also my first gaming keyboard so doubly safe to say, I never ever use my pinky for anything other than to press tab. In games that don't already use tab for scoreboard or anything else, that leaves me free to map anything else under the tab key.

In Half-life games I have a separate macro to map crouchjump to one key.
In Cod I sacrifice one of them as 'melee + secondary', once you learn to use it, it becomes second nature to back away after a meleemiss to finish the job with the pistol. Another one I use as 'jump+prone' to easily do the tiger jump thing.
In wow, these were all mapped to my most used spells. As a tank, i used them with the ingame macros to put in some of the more complicated taunt manouvres
