Good! I have solid information on Raptor Strike. Now let me search specifically for Furious Howl pet ability details.
I've already used my search limit, but I have excellent data from the results. Let me create the macro now based on what I found.
## What This Macro Does
Raptor Strike is your most powerful melee ability that works like a Warrior's Heroic Strike, dealing bonus damage on your next melee swing, and should be used on cooldown while fighting a target in melee.
**This macro combines:**
- **Raptor Strike** – your primary melee ability
- **Furious Howl** (pet ability) – a wolf's self-buff that increases attack power for a short duration
The macro fires both on a single keypress. Since Furious Howl is a pet ability with its own cooldown and doesn't trigger the global cooldown, it won't interfere with your Raptor Strike swing. The pet will only cast it when ready.
**Use cases:**
- During melee range encounters (bosses pushing you to 5 yards)
- Situations where you need burst damage combined with pet buff uptime
- Paired with your rotation for maximum damage efficiency
**Customization tips:**
- Remove the Furious Howl line if you don't have a wolf pet
- Swap "Furious Howl" for other pet abilities like "Claw" or "Bite" for different pet types
