Warlock Fear Rotation

[MGFLA2]

Is there a macro so that i can rotate fears off 5 warlocks with the push of 1 button?

I tried the
/castsequence reset=15 Fear,,,,
/castsequence reset=15 ,Fear,,,
etc

This does not work...once i hit the button 5 times they all cast fear....

I've tried to search for such a macro but am having no luck.

Might try setting up a diff macro in the same slot for all your guys with the mod command. So you just hit 1 and one casts. then shift, alt, ctrl, etc. Its an extra step but might work better. Or stagger fear in your normal cast sequence. I used a cast sequence for my mages and staggered slow in it. It went something like this.

/castsequence reset=target ArcaneBlast, Slow, ArcaneBarrage, ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage, ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage, ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage,

/castsequence reset=target ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage, ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage, Slow, ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage, ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage,

/castsequence reset=target ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage, ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage, ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage, ArcaneBlast, ArcaneBarrage, Slow

Thats not the exact macro but I wrote it all out so by the time it got to the end of the sequence all 3 mages had cast the same number of spells and the mob/boss always had the slow debuff on him.

ok maybe its best to set up a scenario....

5 mob pull...

I want to be able to fear 4 of them each with a different lock (slaves)....

The 4 feared i want to have targeted by the 4 different locks (slaves) that feared but also want to still be able to burn down what ever my main is killing without losing the feared targets incase of needed re-fear.

Don't know if this makes any sense or not lol ...

Anyway if i have to bind 4 different buttons then so be it....but does anyone have an idea how to st this up in the 4 different macros?

The first example is what people use for a rotation spell situation. Imagine that you have 1 spell with a cooldown. If one alt uses it, he can't use it again for a certain time. People use that example so you can use the spell on each of your alts one at a time and give it time (reset) for the spell to cooldown.

What you want is 4 spells going off at the same time. There is no reason to rotate through them, you want 4 fears.

Having a target isn't necessary for almost all spells now (channeling still wants a target most times). So you can have a focus, a target, a different named target and more if you want all to cast spells on. I am going to assume you have your main focused. [target=focus] That is what I do, so I will take out focus out of the list. Next is naming certain mobs. [target=Skullcrusher] That really sucks, since there can be 2 of them, and the names change so much it would take too long to type them all in. Next is your pet. Might not be a great way to do things, but just letting you know it is there. [target=pet-target] Next is just targeting beforehand. Just cast fear on the target the alts have already. (don't need anything, but [target=target]) Now for casting on your main's target. [target=focus-target]

So for you fears, just put fear on your hotbar in a common place. Make a macro on your alts to cast on your main [target=focus-target] and then you can mash fear button and your alts cast fear on the target they have. Bam. Targeting on your main's target and fearing on your alt's target.

Hope that helps. Good luck.

Thanks Electron....

So then this should work..

First i would manually select the fear targets for each of the alts..
Focus is already set up for my main ....

I would then use this macro for my 4 alts and placing it on the same key for all including main..

/cast [target=target] Fear

Now while there feared and still targeted by the alts i would then use whatever spell i have like this on the alts?

/castsequence [target=focustarget] Corruption, Curse of Agony, Shadowbolt

Now what could i put into the fear macro so that once the mains target has died and i now switch to one of the feared mobs to burn down it will not get feared again but still fear 3 of the targets.. Or is this possible? Like something along the lines of If the target=target is the focustarget then no fear...
