First off, I'm not sure how you mean that exactly. Do you want all that done with one button press? If so, you can't. The mark and the sting both use the GCD. So you would do one then the other. That being the case, you might not even want them both in the same macro. Normally, most hunters just use a focus assist macro only to select the tanks targets. They then cast whatever ability is appropriate at the time.

In other words, they get the tank's target before the pull and cast the mark. Then during the fight, when a mob goes down, they assist again. At this point you might not even want to bother placing marks and stings. All that said, I'll post the various commands you're asking about as well as the ones I meant.

This is a good assist macro. You use ctrl as a modifier to set a target as your focus and then no mod to select that focus' target. If you have no focus, it will select your pet's target (if it's in combat). That's handy for soloing.

/focus [mod:ctrl] target
/assist [@pet]
/assist [@Focus]


If you actually want to cast the mark anyway, this would work.

#showtooltip
/assist [@Focus]
/cast Hunter's Mark


Finally, if you still want to cast what you originally asked about, it can be done. But it's not really the best way to go.

#showtooltip
/assist [@Focus]
/castsequence Hunter's Mark, Serpent Sting
