/castsequence [target=targettarget,harm] reset=target/combat Flame Shock, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt


All it does is spam Flame Shock when the Cooldown is up. The stupid part is if I remove the reset=target/combat entirely the macro works but not the way I want it to. I want it to reset each time I change targets as this is the macro I use on the FTL setup.

I use this one as my "Current Leader" Lava Burst Macro and it works fine so I don't understand why the above doesn't work with the reset mod...

#showtooltip Lava Burst
/castsequence reset=target/combat Flame Shock, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt

As for trying a timer I can set the reset timer to any number of seconds and my macros DO NOT reset at all for whatever reason until I run the entire sequence...

Ok here is what I did and I seem to got it to work:

Current Leaders Lava Burst Macro:

#showtooltip Lava Burst
/castsequence reset=6/combat Flame Shock, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt

Slaves Lava Burst Macro
/castsequence [target=targettarget,harm] reset=6/combat Flame Shock, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt
/targetlasttarget

Its seems to work flawlessly if I have to change targets with my tank. Only downside is if I do it (probably cause something dies etc) I will Lava Burst a target without flame shock. Would really just have to apply it manually in that case.

You might have worked this part out, but I think the reason why the first macro wasn't working as expected is because the 'target' for reset=target is referring to your current target, rather than the target of the spells (i.e. your target's target).

Also, reset=# is time since you last pressed the macro button, so if you were spamming the key it might not have had time to reset.

if you can live with actual targetting the mob you shoot and you are using an ftl i would use the following:



/click ActionButtonX
/castsequence reset=target/combat Flame Shock, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lava Burst, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt


with the ftl-assist-macro (/assist [mod:alt,mod:ctrl ..... ) bound on an Actionbutton.
You can fnd this in the wiki, on 'using /castsequences ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/Focusless_Targetless_Leaderless_Setup#Using_.2Fcas tsequences') ' and 'Shorten macrospace / simplify group changes ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/Focusless_Targetless_Leaderless_Setup#Shorten_macr ospace_.2F_simplify_group_changes') '

You may want to review this thread: Lets work on a lava burst macro! ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=16609')

Yeah I have been looking at that forever. The 2nd post of mine works wonders though.
