Right now I have the following all at level 73:

Prot Paladin (Blood Elf)

Button #1

#showtooltip
/startattack
/castsequence reset=target/3 Avenger's Shield, Hammer of the Righteous, Judgement, Hammer of the Righteous, Shield of the Righteous, Avenger's Shield, Hammer of the Righteous, Shield of the Righteous

Button #2

#showtooltip
/startattack
/castsequence reset=target,15 Holy Wrath, Hammer of the Righteous, Consecration


Frost Mage (Undead)

Button #1

#showtooltip
/stopmacro [channeling]
/target focustarget
/petattack [@pettarget,noexists]
/castsequence reset=target,7 Ice Lance, Ice Lance, Ice Lance, Cone of Cold, Fire Blast, Frostbolt

Button #2

#showtooltip
/stopmacro [channeling]
/target focustarget
/castsequence reset=target Deep Freeze, Arcane Missiles


BM Hunters (Blood Elf)

Button #1

#Showtooltip
/target focustarget
/petattack [@pettarget,noexists]
/castsequence reset=combat/6 Hunter's Mark, Serpent Sting, Kill Command, Concussive Shot, arcane shot, Widow Venom, Focus Fire, steady shot, arcane shot, steady shot

Button #2

#Showtooltip
/target focustarget
/castsequence reset=combat/6 Bestial Wrath, Fervor


I'm mainly planning to do dungeons, PvE only, I just rebuilt the team from having 4 hunters, so I'm figuring it's probably better to move the remaining hunters into Marksmanship. I also just came back aftera year away so i'm feeling terribly out of the loop.

Any suggestions at all are appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm not awake yet, but one thing I noticed is you don't have the hunters resetting on target so Hunter's Mark and Serpent Sting aren't always up. Anytime I have something that should be cast once per target like long debuffs or DoTs, I use stacked castsequences with a null (http://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/46393-Khat-s-Newbie-Guide-for-Multiboxing-Vol-2?p=354393&viewfull=1#post354393).


/castsequence reset=target/alt Hunter's Mark, Serpent Sting, null
/castsequence reset=combat/6 Kill Command, Concussive Shot, arcane shot, Widow Venom, Focus Fire, steady shot, arcane shot, steady shot

Concussive Shot and Widow Venom are pretty situational in PVE and I probably wouldn't put them in a spam macro. They're costing you globals and focus for pretty much no return. You're already getting slows from the mage frost spells and you'd be better off interrupting heal casts with the paladin through AS/HoJ/Rebuke and using the Blood Elf Racial Arcane Torrent on Round Robin than letting whatever heals you do see go off at all. Just throw Widow venom on a separate button for situations where the heals won't be interruptible.

You don't have Kill Shot in your macro. You can add it as a Fall-through on your second macro. Same with the Paladin and Hammer of Wrath.


/castsequence reset=combat/6 Bestial Wrath, Fervor
/cast Kill Shot
