Every ability, as a macro that keeps its rank current

Each row is a complete macro: #showtooltip so the button wears the right icon, then a /cast with no rank in it. That is what makes the rank self-updating — on Forever a /cast without a rank always uses the highest one you know, while a spell dragged onto your action bar stays on the rank you dragged.

Nothing to update after a trainer visit. Make the macros once, drag them onto your bars, and forget about ranks for the rest of the class's life. The rest of the macro rules — what one press can do, and the auto-attack pairing — are on the macros page.

14 of the abilities here are written with /startattack in front, which is the source's rule for the melee half of the class rather than a judgement about each ability. Stealth openers and finishers are plain casts.

Why /startattack is sometimes after the cast. On a stealth opener the source puts it after the ability, which is not a mistake: the opener is cast from stealth first, and the swing starts on the way out. Both orders work, because /startattack is off the global cooldown — the order shown is the source's, kept as it is so a row matches what you would find there.
