<p>I've seen it mentioned that there is a way to tie together equipping a tower shield and kicking off Tower of Stone. Is this true and if so, how do I do this?</p><p>Right now I just have hotbars taken up with my shield to equip it and then have to hit ToS. Any way to streamline this process would be appreciated.</p><p>Thanks. </p>

<p>Free 2 hotbar slots in bank 1,2,3 or 4. Drag your tower shield from your inventory to one of the slots (while it's in a bag, so you link the shield itself and not your shield slot), and drag ToS from your knowledge book to the other hotbutton slot.</p><p>Now go into options > hotbutton keys. Bind the <i>same</i> key to both hotbuttons; this generates an error message but confirm it anyway.</p><p>Pressing the key will now both equip the tower shield and use tower of stone. The only drawback is that in raids, lag can sometimes mean you need to tap the key a few times, because the shield swap isn't processed fast enough - you'll see what I mean if you try it.</p>

I'm almost positive there is no /equip or /unequip macro you can use. You'll just have to do what the previous poster said and link the TS to your hotbar. That's what I do and I don't experience any major issues with it.

I had heard there was a way to mimic this. </p><p>Thanks Tuinal! <img src="/smilies/e8a506dc4ad763aca51bec4ca7dc8560.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

What key are you using to bind them to, just curious
