so i've got most of my macros set up the way i'd like them however there are a few general things i'm having an issue with. Let me first explain that i run Enhance Shaman (Main), Prot Pally (Healbot), Demolock (nukebot).

Here are the macro's that are giving me trouble:

1) I want to enchant Windfury on my main hand and frostrbrand on my off hand. I don't want to do this with clicking and i don't want to do this with any alt or ctrl modifiers if possible. It could be done across 2 seperate macro's if neccessary. It just seems that i'm limited to only left or right clicking the icon...

2)I am currently using the following general Melee macro for my enhance shaman. I would like to find a way to incorporate Shamanistic Rage and or Bloodlust if it is up, but i'm having problems with the global cooldown:

/startattack
/use Core of Ar’kelos
/castsequence reset=combat Stormstrike, Earth Shock, Grounding Totem, Tremor Totem, Earth Shock, Stormstrike, Earth Shock, Earth Shock

3) I'm using this macro for mounting on my pally... however i would like to modify it so that it will cast crusader when mounted(or mounting) and concentration when not mounted(or dismounting)

/cast [nocombat,outdoors,nomounted,flyable] Tawny Windrider
/cast [nocombat,outdoors,nomounted] Summon Charger
/dismount [mounted]

4) I can't seem to get the following macro's to pass:

/castrandom [target=demolock] heal
or
/cast [target=demolock] heal

5) I have a general healing button for the pally, however i would like to create an additional one specifically for assist healing in panic situations. This is what i have so far however i can't get it to work because of the GCD, any suggestions?

/assist focus
/cast [target=demolock] Blessing of Protection; [target=pally] Divine Shield;
/stopcasting
/use Ribbon of Sacrifice
/use Essence of the Martyr
/cast [help] Flash of Light; [target=tarettarget] Flash of Light

any suggestions at all would be greatly appreciated.

/cast [nocombat, nomounted] Crusader Aura; [mounted] Concentration Aura;
/cast [nocombat, nomounted] (put your mount here);
/dismount

/castrandom [targetexact="Demolock"] Flash of Light,Holy Light

/cast [targetexact="Demolock"] Flash of Light

/cast [targetexact="Demolock"] Holy Light

Paladins do not have a spell called "Heal"

Try

/castsequence reset=300
[targetexact="Demolock"] Blessing of Protection; [target=player] Divine Shield; Ribbon of Sacrifice; Essence of the Martyr;[targetexact="Demolock"] Flash of Light; [target=player] Flash of Light

You have to mash the buttons a few times.
It BOPs the lock, then Shields you, uses 2 trinkets, and Flash the lock, then you. So that's 6 button presses.

/cast [nocombat, nomounted] Crusader Aura; [mounted] Concentration Aura;
/cast [nocombat, nomounted] (put your mount here);
/dismount

The problem i think i'm having here is the Summon charger shares GCD iwth crusader Aura. Would this work?

/cast [mounted] Concentration Aura
/dismount [mounted]
/cast [combat] Concentration Aura
/castsequence [nocombat, nomounted, flyable] Crusader Aura, Tawny Windrider
/castsequence [nocombat, nomounted] Crusader Aura, Summon Charger

Would take 2 clicks i think to mount up but that's ok i suppose.

AHAH!!! That's what i was missing, [targetexact="name"] Thank you so much!!

And yeah i know there's no "heal" just a generalization. LoL.

Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Instead of using the names of your trinkets, just do:

------
/use 13
/use 14
------


The only thing you really need to worry about is if you are in pvp and you have your pvp trinket.

/castsequence reset=300
[targetexact="Demolock"] Blessing of Protection; [target=player] Divine Shield; Ribbon of Sacrifice; Essence of the Martyr;[targetexact="Demolock"] Flash of Light; [target=player] Flash of Light

You have to mash the buttons a few times.
It BOPs the lock, then Shields you, uses 2 trinkets, and Flash the lock, then you. So that's 6 button presses.

In my other macros the trinkets never disrupt the GCD for spells further down the macro. So i think i should be able to remove these from the cast sequence simply by doing a /use earlier on.

Also, Divine Shield is self only so I can probably remove the target player.

Would this work?


/use 13
/use 14
/target focustarget
/castsequence [targetexact=”Demolock”] Blessing of Protection; Divine Shield; Flash of Light; [Target=Player] Flash of Light

/castsequence spells are seperated by commas not semicolons. semicolons are for commands when doing /script or /run :)

If its going to take two clicks anyway why not separate the crusader aura and the mount macro?

Admitedly not used this on a pally, my highest being level1 but worked well on a hunter:
[code:1]#showtooltip
/use [flyable,nocombat]Snowy Gryphon;[nocombat]Swift Gray Ram;
/cancelform
[/code:1]
I adapted it from a druid form macro on the wowwiki, try here...

It would be so doable if you could /cancelaura <weapon buff> but sadly no idea how it's done.

This might provide some ideas, though -- this is used to put sharpen stones/poisons on a specific weapon:
/script UseContainerItem (#,#);
/script PickupInventoryItem (16);


2)I am currently using the following general Melee macro for my enhance shaman. I would like to find a way to incorporate Shamanistic Rage and or Bloodlust if it is up, but i'm having problems with the global cooldown:

/startattack
/use Core of Ar’kelos
/castsequence reset=combat Stormstrike, Earth Shock, Grounding Totem, Tremor Totem, Earth Shock, Stormstrike, Earth Shock, Earth Shock
Some trinks use a click, some don't. My Ancient Draenei Arcane Relic uses 2 clicks, my Vengeance of the Illidari does not. This is what I've used to compensate:

/target [target=focustarget,harm,nodead][target=party1target,harm,nodead]
/castsequence [combat] Vengeance of the Illidari, Ancient Draenei Arcane Relic
/castsequence [nocombat,harm] reset=5/combat Totem of Wrath,Lightning Bolt,null; Lightning Bolt



3) I'm using this macro for mounting on my pally... however i would like to modify it so that it will cast crusader when mounted(or mounting) and concentration when not mounted(or dismounting)

/cast [nocombat,outdoors,nomounted,flyable] Tawny Windrider
/cast [nocombat,outdoors,nomounted] Summon Charger
/dismount [mounted]
[code:1]/cast [nocombat, nomounted] Crusader Aura; [mounted] Concentration Aura;
/stopcasting
/cast [nocombat,outdoors,nomounted,flyable] Tawny Windrider; [nocombat,outdoors,nomounted] Summon Charger
/dismount [mounted][/code:1]



4) I can't seem to get the following macro's to pass:

/castrandom [target=demolock] heal
or
/cast [target=demolock] heal
Try /cast [target=demolock,help] Heal -- if worse comes to worse you can also try
/target demolock
/cast heal

As another alternative, use party leader and do [target=party1]


5) I have a general healing button for the pally, however i would like to create an additional one specifically for assist healing in panic situations. This is what i have so far however i can't get it to work because of the GCD, any suggestions?
/cast [target=party1target,help,nodead][target=party1,help,nodead] Flash of Light
Assist your party leader and heal the target, only if it's friendly. Otherwise, heal the party leader.


/assist focus
/cast [target=demolock] Blessing of Protection; [target=pally] Divine Shield;
/stopcasting
/use Ribbon of Sacrifice
/use Essence of the Martyr
/cast [help] Flash of Light; [target=tarettarget] Flash of Light

I think you've misunderstood the use of [target=

[target=<something>] is the same as /target <something>
There are no "if" statements, really, so if you wanted to /assist demolock and heal something, youc an do that, if you want to target demolock and do something, you can do that, if you want to assist demolock and cast something only if demolock is targeting himself, you can't do that.
