I'm 5 boxing DKs on The Forgotten Coast. I must say, its very fun and not as difficult as you'd think, especially with Death Grip. I use a 1 button macro to rotate abilities through the group. Its awesome pwning a lvl 73 at lvl 60.

Anyway, I don't hava a Death Grip Macro. Is there any way I could make a 1 button macro that would rotate my death grip through the group, i.e., the first time i push the macro would activate DG in DK 1, the second button push would activate DG in dk 2... etc to dk 5, then reset?

Thanks!

sounds like a castsequence macro (or RR feature in keyclone) is what you want. /castsequence death grip,,,, on toon 1, then /castsequence ,death grip,,, on toon 2, etc. lots of examples. I think theres a earth shock rotation (or maybe tremor totem rotation) macro in the wiki (http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/Macros ) thats easily adaptable...Not entirely reliable (susceptible to lag, and if you spam they all get on the same 'step' since if it fails (due to a CD) castsequence doesn't progress. So you might wanta reset=cooldown_of_dg. also [target=focustarget] et al would probably be helpful...

might behoove you to read the wow macro guide at wow wiki: http://www.wowwiki.com/Making_a_macro Since its unlikly that you will be able to find all the premade macro's you need.

This macro with death grip is awsome!

#showtooltip Death Grip
/cast Death Grip
/cast Gnaw

If you get the major glyph that adds a 1 sec stun to DG you will get an additional 3 sec stun from your ghouls gnaw. That is if you are speced for unholy.

Here is a good list of other macros.

I have Death Grip on Round Robin with keyclone,(kyclone really makes life easy for this kind of thing).
This also extends to other things,and saves alot of time :) fiddling setting macros up x5.

KK sounds good. Also, anyone know if an action bar rotation, or a macro that says, press numberpad 1, then press numberpad 2 for each press... I have my insignia and will of the forsake bound to numberpad buttons 1 and 2 for all my toons. Having a 1 button macro would be nice.

Suggestions.

Suggestions.I found my problem, and made a macro to do this with 1 button (I had my trinket slot wrong). For those who want to know:

/castsequence reset=10 Will of the Forsacen, 13

Use bindpad to bind it to a key. >) woot.
