im pretty sure there is no way you can insert a pause. for its against the rules.. or w/e..
but..
if you dont mind smashing the same button multiple times.. you can maybe do this...

/castsequence reset=15 ,,Tremor Totem,


by doing that.. it will only cast the totem after your 3 time of pressing the button.. so.. if you smash it 5 times.. it will take it about 1 second of so, to cast from the first time you pressed the button.
any way to add a pause into casting by only pressing a button a single time is against the rules and can get you in trouble. im pretty sure..

work with what you got. search the wiki.. i mean.. im new myself and i find everything i need in there...
its all in there.. : )

well, thats what i think at least. I might be wrong. Im a noob, btw. :P

Nope, no delays, no timers, no schedules.

Why would you want to do this?

because it pulsates, like magma..

Round robin casts

In a round robin cast, each character takes its turn to do a
specific job. This can only be accomplished by having a different macro
per character.
It will look like this:

Character1:


/castsequence reset=15 Earthbind Totem,,,

Character2:


/castsequence reset=15 ,Earthbind Totem,,

Character3:


/castsequence reset=15 ,,Earthbind Totem,

Character4:


/castsequence reset=15 ,,,Earthbind Totem

'reset' means that the macro will reset itself after 15 seconds.
I use this type of macros for:


EarthBind Totem
Flame Shock
Frost Shock




ps... is this waht you want to do? set them all at different times so that they pulsate differently? this is ken's shaman macros or something.. .. in the wiki

wiki FTW... use it..

if this isn't what you want to do.. then... i have no idea what your talking about.

You can either cast sequence the macro as stated above, or simply round robin the key, or set it up in your totem rotation

/castsequence Tremor totem, Searing Totem, Mana spring Totem, Grounding Totem
/castsequence Grounding Totem, Tremor totem, Searing Totem, Healing Stream Totem
/castsequence Healing stream Totem, Grounding Totem, Tremor totem, Searing Totem
/castsequence Searing Totem, Healing stream Totem, Grounding Totem, Tremor totem

that way you are not wasting time between casting, as you'll be setting the other totems down aswell, although it can be a mana sink during combat

Ive made it like that actually after i heard i could not pause or make a delay, but is searing better than magma or ?

Searing is 1/4 the mana cost but sucks for AoE targets. On single targets, it's definitely a better option.

Hehe, as long as the tremors are put so they pulse differently, u can allways change the other totems for the situation at hand hehe + fear trinket it should relative hard to get the group scattered ^^
