View Full Version : Round Robin Cleansing Macro Needed!

I looked around for a round robin cleanse macro and couldn't find anything recent.

Anyone have a macro that cycles through the party and/or just possibly naming names of who to cleanse.

I was using /targetparty but that changes my target and it also tends to have atleast 2 pallies try and cleanse the same target.

I'd like to see something that cycles in order so I can set the order slightly different for each pally (even if i have to specify names). That way I could trinket the first fear bomb with 2 pallies and have everyone else cleansed of fear in one global cooldown, then trinket the second fear with the other 2 pallies and have them cleanse the ones who trinketed last time first.

so basically, can you have a castsequence that cycles through targets, or atleast a way of cycling targets with one spell?

a click macro that looks like this should work

/cast target=party1 cleanse,,,,
/cast target=party2 ,cleanse,,,
/cast target=party3 ,,cleanse,,
/cast target=party4 ,,,cleanse,
/cast target=party5 ,,,,cleanse

The partyN UnitId excludes the player, so you'll have to use player to refer to yourself. party1-4 are ok, party5 isn't.

actually, will this macro advance to party member 2 if party member 1 doesn't need a cleanse, ie, would you not get the message "nothing to cleanse" and since it didn't cast that spell it would get stuck on that step?

non holy Pally cleanse will be pretty much useless in cata and classes can kite you even easier now.

Arctic Winds

When below 35% health attackers have a 30% reduced chance to hit you with melee and ranged attacks and your Frost Nova and Cone of Cold cooldowns are reduced by 100%.

i used to use

/castsequence [target=smokingzenga] cleanse,,,,
/castsequence [target=flyingvasco] ,cleanse,,,
/castsequence [target=flyingpoison] ,,cleanse,,
...

though decursive / grid + clique /w cleanse keybound is what i use now

I use Healbot with Cleanse mixed in. That way I don't have to worry about the sequence and can just Cleanse whoever needs it.

Cleanse(non-Holy) is losing its remove magic effect and only keeping posion and disease effect.

bye bye remove fear, bye bye remove snare effects. HoF is your only relief for snare besides posion snares.

All healers are getting remove magic- i.e imo every comp should have a healer. But that is my opinion. ;p

man Fat Tire, your a bearer of bad news today :P

mages will be impossible for melee to catch when they are spamming frost nova, i'm not worried, that will totally get nerfed :P

i'd try the decursive/grid thing but i'm trying to avoid having multiple pallies waste gcd's casting cleanse on the same target. It seems to me like all pallies who cast cleanse at the same time tend to cleanse the same buff so you use 4 gcd's to remove one frost nova from 1 person. Seems the same way with shaman purge, if all shaman purge the same target at the same time they lose 2 or 3 debuff's instead of like 10 as they should.

when I get aoe frost nova'd it just seems to take forever to get all my toons unstuck in pvp. how do you guys handle that?

Well I will say that if they(blizzard) allow Rets to reach 5/5 Reckoning as is available now with 85 points , holy crap just 1 ret could global anyone.

I think the order of the commas needs to be reversed like this maybe?

/cast target=player ,,,,cleanse
/cast target=party4 ,,,cleanse,
/cast target=party3 ,,cleanse,,
/cast target=party2 ,cleanse,,,
/cast target=party1 cleanse,,,,
