Raise Dead won't work in a macro with DRW, they both trigger a global cooldown. I personally have Raise Dead in my Hysteria macro, and pop DRW after that, seperately. That way I can be using DRW more often without worry of hitting some other ability or potion prematurely, since it has a shorter cooldown. As for the engineering trigger, I'm assuming it's the hyperspeed accelerator tinker? I use the pyro rocket myself, which should work in that macro I *think*, but am not familiar with the mechanics around the hyperspeed being triggered, whether the trinket triggers a shared cooldown on them or what have you.

There must be something you are trying to say that i miss i suppose...
But if yuo have a reset=10 for example, the sequence will reset after ten seconds of the firt button press.
It does not matter how much you mash the button.

The REAL problem with his macro is that if you have such a macro and you press the button more often than the ability is ready for use, the result will be that the sequence goes to the start again before the death coil is ready.
Because when you step through the sequence to the end it starts from beginning again even if the time 35 is not reached.

The simple, dirty solution to this can be:

/castrandom Horn of winter, Icy Touch

#show Unbreakable Armor
/cast Unbreakable Armor
/cancelaura Blood Tap
/cast Blood Tap
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

Press it twice, when you have no F or D runes up. Prevents ugly bugs with Blood Tap.

Will this work?


Also for pvp, If i use:

/cast [target=target,exists,harm] Leap
/cast [target=target,exists,harm] Gnaw
/stopmacro [target=target,harm]

Will this make my pet leap to my target and stun? Is there a gcd for pets for different abilities? Alot of times in pvp if i have to swap targets my pet ends up on something else or i will leave him on a different target for harassment. Would this still work to you him as a stun for my current target?

I was wondering if it's possible to make a macro that spam Scourge Strike if I can't cast it will cast Blood Strike.

I had one macro to a druid that did +- this. (this is just to click on the same spot)

/cast Mangle - Bear(Rank 3)
/stopcast
/cast Maul(Rank 9)
/stopcast

You can spam a castrandom macro to do this, but it will hurt your damage and is not recommended. Your druid macro worked because maul doesn't consume a GCD.

Hi, I would link to expose my 2 macros and, if possible, start a discussion about them.

I'm a Blood DPS DK (51/0/20) at 3.2.

Since the 3.2 patch I was Using 2 self cooked macros:

Plague-o-matic macro:
Very usefull for me, it is still working. I spam it until I got the 2 plagues up. It resets every 10 seconds and can be forced to reset with shift pressed. The last "nothingg" spell is to prevent it to loop. What do you think?

Spam-do-DPS macro: deprecated
(Note: This macro is spammable, but I don't use it to play spamming, just use it to spam while moving or in other circunstances that I cannot focus in rotation (I think its better than do nothing)).
So the macro is like a castsequence but does a random, if some cast is in cooldown it will "skip" it on the next click of the macro (if lucky, because it is a random). As you can see, there are 2xHS to allow it to have more possibilities to be casted.
Update: CastRandom has been rewrited by Blizzard at 3.2 so now it doesn't "skip" any cast. So this second macro is not working anymore.

Well, sorry for my english, and thank you very much for your time

I used to use a macro that would: "castrandom bone shield, horn of winter." With almost everything keybound, my extra keys are tight, and I found this was a good way to conserve space.

However since the patch, cast random won't skip a spell, so it will sometimes get locked on bone shield with a 2 minute cooldown and lock my Horn of Winter out for two minutes.

I was wondering if a castsequence; reset still works and I could do something like this

#showtooltip Bone Shield
/castsequence reset=3 Bone Shield, Horn of Winter
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()


If that doesn't work, does anyone else have any ideas? Thank you.

No, and you shouldn't do that anyway as you will lose damage. Bone shield consumes an unholy rune that could have been used offensively while HoW is free and actually generates RP. Bind both abilities separately. Cast bone shield when the buff is consumed or is about to run out. Cast HoW whenever you have a free GCD.

Castsequence macros have always been terrible because they couldn't account for misses, parries, movement, and so on. Now in 3.2 castrandom macros are just as bad for any ability with a cooldown. Just say no.

Hello, this is one of the nice macros I wrote for a blood Death-knight in the current guild I am in.

The words with < > around them mean to replace them with whatever is inside them.

Since trinkets do not generate a GCD and same with Dancing rune weapon it will work with Hysteria. ( I am not sure if Hysteria will, I haven't tested. )

-I also know that you can cut the macro down so that it is shorter in lengths with a few different commands.
