I think that those in the German forum know what Gewitter is whereas we dont lol ...

Anyway:

IsBoxer
Keymaps
Mapped Keys
Action
Step 1 target=Char 1 /cast Gewitter (check box do not advance to next step for Gewitter Abklingzeit / total characters in Sekunden)
Step 2 target=Char 2 /cast Gewitter (check box do not advance to next step for Gewitter Abklingzeit / total characters in Sekunden)
Step 3 target=Char 3 /cast Thunderstorm (check box do not advance to next step for Thunderstorm Cooldown divided by total characters in Seconds)

etc.

This way you can spam the single key and get maxium thunderstorms evenly spaced from it.

At this point in time IsBoxer blows away all competition.

Keyclone, HKN and ******** are provided by quality individuals with excellent goals and exceptional customer service but IsBoxer is just the superior program. People who don't use it have just no concept of its power.

If your oppenet is using IsBoxer and you are not .... well they have an advantage plain and simple.



Google

"round-robin" wow macro

or round robin wow macro

or thunderstorm round robin wow macro

for the best possible way to find a macro solution (you will probably get a hit back to this site heh...)

I have no idea why you have 'Stop casting' written out in your macro but I'm pretty sure it doesn't work that way. /stopcasting (http://www.wowwiki.com/Making_a_macro#Stopping_a_cast) is a slash command and not something that you can just type out in your macro. You should try removing that from your macro altogether.

Pretty sure this isn't working since Thunderstorm triggers a GCD.

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/basics/macroguide-one.html


The /stopcasting command only works in conjunction with instant spells and abilities that do not trigger the global cooldown. These include trinkets and other items that have an "on use" ability. Experiment with your own arsenal of instant spells and abilities to see which ones do not trigger the global cooldown.

And don't talk about that software here. If you want to get help here, you must respect our rules and guidelines.

i didnt talk about any software.. but anyway.. /stop casting should stop the dmg spell or what ever it does and cast Thunderstorm ... so i dont need to spam that button.. i have no idea what it has to do with gcd hm

I have used it and I am more than happy with the power of HKN instead.

Rage, I'm guessing you're looking for an ingame macro to do this? You're not going to find an ingame means to stopcasting only if it that toon's turn to cast Thunderstorm.

The proper format for the macro is

/stopcasting
/cast whatever

Stopcasting is not a valid spell, nor is it a conditional, therefor it cannot go in the body of a cast or castsequence line. If you try to do it like this :

/stopcasting
/castsequence reset=45 Thunderstorm,,,,,

/stopcasting
/castsequence reset=45 ,Thunderstorm,,,,

/stopcasting
/castsequence reset=45 ,,Thunderstorm,,,
etc

Everyone is always going to stop casting. You will have to do it externally, or you will have to use separate macros, or you will have to live with everyone or no one stopping.

It is easy if you create the following macro on all characters and map it to a key.

Then use the "keypress-send to all - tool" of your choice like HKN, ISBOXER, Keyclone ...

look up the round-robin keypress function in that tool :

isboxer: steps
hkn: Toggle
Keyclone: ??? (dunno)

and you are ready


/stopcasting
/cast Thunderstorm

hmm.. a pity that there is no way around using one button for each char.. currently i have em all on same button.. its a great aoe dmg burst and the knockback range is awsome.. but for arena i guess i have to make it round robin.. thanks for the help guys :)

Round robin just takes practice to not blow them all at once. I simply press it until one of them goes off.
