ToonA
/castsequence tremor totem,,,

ToonB
/castsequence ,tremor totem,,

ToonC
/castsequence ,,tremor totem,

They started off working fine but now for some reason they are all Blank then once I press my macro button "I" ToonC's button lights up, once pressed again ToonC drops the totem, then once pressed again both ToonA and ToonB drop theirs at the same time.

I mean it was working well (I think) but then after a dungeon it just suddenly stopped working. Any tips?

Try inserting a reset in the macros on your toons.. seems like lagg or something made the macros get out of sync..
Eks.:
ToonA
/castsequence reset=5 tremor totem,,

ToonB
/castsequence reset=5 ,tremor totem,

ToonC
/castsequence reset=5 ,,tremor totem


Might help ya out there.

And you will probably want to just stagger your whole call of etc totem sets like that instead of just the tremors.
Staggered cleansing is handy if you pvp for example.

What is the difference in this macro and just putting tremor on round robin?

lol, there prob is a big difference....but idk.

round robin can be accomplished software wise (i.e. sending a certain key stroke to one particular wow client instead of to all), while this is a macro solution,

result should be same, means are different

I have them separate - it's 1 extra keystroke (1 key to do call of elements, 4 keystrokes to stagger vs. 4 keystrokes to stagger call of elements) in PVE if it's a fight with fears or only 1 keystroke (call of elements) if there isn't a chance of fear.

For PVP, having another call of ___ on stagger is the way to go to handle both cleansing and tremor, I'd think.

I actually use one of my calls for just the staggered totems ie. tremor, blank, cleansing, blank and have this one set to round robin.

The only other thing I would say about your initial macro is that you have one too many commas for a three toon sequence. The macros in the second post are fine to use and will prevent you from ever having a keystroke that will not drop any totems at all.

This doesn't explain why your macros got out of sequence, but as mentioned a reset condition is the best way to automatically resynch them when needed.

Cheers

I like the to stagger everything.
I run with three shammies on one team, and two on another.
If I spam the key three times over the course of half a second, it isn't much different then dropping them all at once.
But when I want to stagger them out, just time my keystrokes for roughly 1 to 1.5 seconds (depending on team) apart.

We also benefit from the staggering the cleansing totem, although tremor is the main reason to stagger.
