I was wondering if it is possible to block a macro for a set amount of time.
If I would have a macro like:


/target tankchar
/stopcasting
/cast healing wave

Bad thing about this macro is the part that you have a chance of spamming it in panic situations. Resulting in no incomming heals at all.
So I`m wondering if I can block the macro for a set amount of time, offcourse untill the spell landed. That way I can still spam it :-)

/target Character
/stopcasting [nomod:shift (Or another modifier)]
/cast healing wave
There ya go. This doesn't ''block'' the macro, but it will ignore your /stopcasting line if you have shift pressed.

/cast healing wave

you can do a castrandom instead

/castrandom healing wave, ,

will cast healing wave on average 1 in 3 times you hit the macro

and you can use a shift modifier to make it cast 100% of the time

I use this on my resto shaman so I don't overheal the tank and waste all my mana

#showtooltip Mend Pet
/castsequence reset=15 Mend Pet, ,

I had found this macro once while looking up a feed pet macro for my hunter. I use a variation on it for my Holy Paladin so that she doesn't waste mana re-casting Beacon of Light (while 5 boxing, I had it bound to 5 keys). I'm at work so this might not be 100% correct but should give you the general idea.


#showtooltip Beacon of Light
/castsequence [target=focus] reset=60 Beacon of Light, ,
