Saw a couple of what looked like really interesting and simple spam macros for Rogue and Mage attacks while boxing normal instances leveling. Spent an hour or two looking for them again and now can;t find them.
Anyone able to either point me towards those posts or recommend what they've found useful please ?
Using three Rogues, one Mage, tanked by a lvl 50 Warrior. (presently lvl 24)

Nothing terribly complicated. They almost all look like this:
suppressmacrofailures
cast <15+ second cooldown ability>
cast <10 second cooldown ability>
cast <5 second cooldown ability>
cast <no cooldown ability>

What Ugh said :)
I go one step further and make sure that my Shamacar macro uses all/mostly abilities that build conviction points, so that she never runs out of conviction points if she has to cast more heals than usual on my warrior tank in between her dpsing. So if your mages always have a buff to their fire dmg for example, you don't want the rest of the abilities to be earth dmg or whatever if you can help it.
You can also use more than one of each CD length, i.e.
#show <no cooldown ability>
suppressmacrofailures
cast <15+ second cooldown ability>
cast <other 15+ second cooldown ability>
cast <10 second cooldown ability>
cast <other 10 second cooldown ability>
cast <5 second cooldown ability>
cast <no cooldown ability>
Just keep in mind that the game always tries to fire them off from top to bottom, so it won't work to put more than one non-CD ability in one macro... which is actually a bit of an issue with my current warrior build, i need 2 diff instant/no CD skills to get all her DoTs up, but having two buttons rather than one is not the end of the world.
