    Default Soulstone macro for a 4xlock 1x priest team.

    Wanted to make a macro to round-robin casting a soulstone on my priest AND create a soul stone.

    Think this will work?


    [code:1]
    Warlock 1:/castsequence Create Soulstone, [target=focus] Minor Soulstone,,,
    Warlock 2:/castsequence Create Soulstone,, [target=focus] Minor Soulstone,,
    Warlock 3:/castsequence Create Soulstone,,, [target=focus] Minor Soulstone,
    Warlock 4:/castsequence Create Soulstone,,,, [target=focus] Minor Soulstone
    [/code:1]

    The idea is that if the priest goes down he comes back up with the first locks soul stone and then lock two puts a soulstone on him... and so forth.

    Hmm..I was pondering this last night. Great minds...

    I'll ask Oathbreaker tonight if he has something like this going. My initial impression is you can't do it at all as one is a /cast <spell> and one is a /use <item>. I would think that if anything worked, the following would:

    /target <priest>
    /use Minor Soulstone
    /cast Create Soulstone

    This would try to use the soulstone first and then cast one if the /use part failed, BUT it wouldn't be able to be sequenced like you have it there. I'll give it a try tonight and let ya know if I can get it working or if Oath knows.

    Well this is directly from wowwiki:

    This macro will on right click make a soulstone (change for appropriate level), left click, use it and on alt left click cast it on yourself.

    #showtooltip Minor Soulstone
    /cast [modifier:alt,target=player] Minor Soulstone; [button:1] Minor Soulstone; [button:2] Create Soulstone
    Notice he uses a /cast for the soulstone, not a /use.

    /use and /cast are the same thing for items that can be activated

    Correct because I can cast my dreadsteed spell or cast my mistsaber pussycat spell.

    Default

    I didn't test the macro last night, was in the middle of deadmines when I thought of it so not a good time to write macros, but I did test /cast minor soulstone. That worked so I see no reason that this macro wouldn't work. I'll play with it tonight but if it works I think this would be a macro everyone running multiple locks would want in their arsenal.

    Just tried this. No worky. If you split up the two spells, though, it seems to. I'll confirm later tonight once I've used it for a few hours.

    [code:1]/castsequence [target=focus] lesser soulstone,,,
    /cast create soulstone[/code:1]

    [edit] Hmm...seems to do nothing quite often. Must need some tweaking.

    Have you tried something like this? It only works if you have some random trash spell that you can throw in between to use up a global cooldown. Anything works - I just find the cheapest spell that doesn't have a cooldown.

    Of course, you would run into issues with sync'ing them all up if, for example, you press this before the 30 min SS cooldown is up

    /target <priestname>
    /castsequence Create Soulstone, Minor Soulstone, Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Find Minerals

    /target <priestname>
    /castsequence Find Minerals, Create Soulstone, Minor Soulstone, Find Minerals, Find Minerals

    /target <priestname>
    /castsequence Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Create Soulstone, Minor Soulstone, Find Minerals

    /target <priestname>
    /castsequence Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Create Soulstone, Minor Soulstone



    Or you could try something like:
    /target <priestname>
    /cast Create Soulstone
    /castsequence Minor Soulstone, Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Find Minerals

    /target <priestname>
    /cast Create Soulstone
    /castsequence Find Minerals, Minor Soulstone, Find Minerals, Find Minerals

    /target <priestname>
    /cast Create Soulstone
    /castsequence Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Minor Soulstone, Find Minerals

    /target <priestname>
    /cast Create Soulstone
    /castsequence Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Minor Soulstone



    Final alternate (since I don't really know how soulstones work as items and not spells, the above two might not be ideal)

    /target <priestname>
    /castsequence Create Soulstone, Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Find Minerals
    /use Minor Soulstone

    /target <priestname>
    /castsequence Find Minerals, Create Soulstone, Find Minerals, Find Minerals
    /use Minor Soulstone

    /target <priestname>
    /castsequence Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Create Soulstone, Find Minerals
    /use Minor Soulstone

    /target <priestname>
    /castsequence Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Find Minerals, Create Soulstone
    /use Minor Soulstone

    Update: I just tried "lesser soulstone" in a bunch of different configs and could never get it to work with /castsequence unless it was the only spell and had no modifier. /sigh

    yeah, I got the same results in testing today... guess it's just gonna have to be four separate key bindings, one for each of the locks.
