Any Resto Shaman macros or two-step?

[Ualaa]

I couldn't find anything for resto shaman, aside from the old castsequences with the ,,,,,,, chains.

Is anyone doing any kind of two-step or three-step macros with a Resto Shaman.
Or is it pretty much straight heals via Grid/Vuhdo/Healbot and/or Clickbars?

You are not gonna use to many 2 - 3 step macros on any healing class. Healing is on a basic need to heal basis. You don't wanna spam heals because you will go OOM, You don't wanna ignore healing or someone will die. The only way to efficiantly heal is with repeater regions and grid/vuhdo/healbot.

Well, there is a healer step macro for the Resto Druid: http://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/46844-My-resto-druid-four-step-macros?highlight=druid



I'd ideally like something that heals a decent amount, but not necessarily blowing mana in the process.
And then have a toggle key, to enable/disable that... so I can manually manage heals when that's more beneficial.

I guess I'll play around more, and post if I come up with anything that works.

Playing around a bit...
Haven't really played around with this enough... might have to adjust the Reset to Step 1, for reapplication of Earth Shield.
Not sure if six seconds of Riptide, Healing Wave, Cleanse, Chain Heal... out of every 12 seconds is enough healing; could adjust that to be longer or possibly put additional Healing Wave or whatever into that castsequence.
The Lightning Bolt is a filler... do some DPS and restore some mana, until more heals are needed.
Riptide never falls.



Edited the FTL DPS 1 Key.
For everyone else, it is:

Hotkey: 1

Step 1
- Do FTL Assist Me > Current Window
- Send "1" to Elemental Shaman
- Send "1" to Feral Druid
Step 2
- Do FTL Assist Me > Current Window
- Send "2" to Elemental Shaman
- Send "2" to Feral Druid



For the Resto Shaman, it is:

Hotkey: 1
Reset to Step 1 (48.0) seconds, after the FIRST press

Step 1
Do Not Advance to next step for at least 2.0 seconds.
- Send "1" to Resto Shaman
Step 2
Do Not Advance to next step for at least 6.0 seconds.
- Send "2" to Resto Shaman
Step 3
Do Not Advance to next step for at least 6.0 seconds.
- Send "3" to Resto Shaman
Step 4
- Keymap Actions > New Mapped Key Step Action > Reset to Step 2.



Resto, on 1:
#showtooltip Earth Shield
/castsequence [@focus] Earth Shield, Water Shield
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

Resto, on 2:
#showtooltip
/castsequence [@focus] reset=5 Riptide, Healing Wave, Cleanse Spirit, Chain Heal
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()

Resto, on 3:
Lightning Bolt (straight out from the Spellbook).
[She has Telluric Currents trained, and regains mana from casting Lightning Bolts; Resto mana lasts longer than Elemental mana]

These are the macros I used to level my shaman team. Warrior+4 Shamans. 1 resto, 3 elementals.

As pointed out, macroing healers isn't always straight forward, but...

From level 60-80:

#showtooltip Riptide
/script UIErrorsFrame:UnregisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE");
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence [@party1, nodead] [@party1targettarget] Riptide,Healing Wave
/script UIErrorsFrame:RegisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE");
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

Always with the Lightning Bolt filler for step two.

For when mobs are on top of the team, I found this helpful:


#showtooltip Riptide
/script UIErrorsFrame:UnregisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE");
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence [@player] [@party1targettarget] Riptide,Chain Heal
/script UIErrorsFrame:RegisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE");
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

There isn't really a single macro, but if you use a combination of these (that's what i did) you can reasonably level from 1-80.


#showtooltip Lightning Bolt
/script UIErrorsFrame:UnregisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE");
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence [@party1target] Lightning Bolt
/script UIErrorsFrame:RegisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE");
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

Before 60:

Keep the LB in between, but have macros made for Healing Surge and Chain Heal (when you get them.)
For some Bosses, I alternated Healing Surge and Healing Wave (or you go OOM way too quickly)


#showtooltip Healing Wave
/script UIErrorsFrame:UnregisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE");
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence [@party1, nodead] [@party1targettarget] Healing Wave,Healing Wave,Healing Surge
/script UIErrorsFrame:RegisterEvent("UI_ERROR_MESSAGE");
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

I played round with it last night and managaed to get through Tol'Vir normal fairly painlessly just using

/castsequence [@focustargettarget] riptide, healing wave, healing wave, chain heal

With totally undergeared healer I had almost no mana issues during fights (having to drink maybe every 4 pulls) and bosses like the third one where I don't have to worry about damage to the team if I pay attention were easy but fights like the first one where I have to heal someone that may not have agro is a pain. I think that's because the healing macro is on both my normal and aoe spam keys and so it's hard to find a gcd to do other heals as I'm spamming my 2-step.

I'm fairly certain the solution to this is just create another 2-step that will only fire on my tank and dps so I can then use grid healing to do specific heals and cleanses as needed.

I heal manually with mouseovers and use the below 2-step for spamming -



/castsequence [@party1target] reset=target Flame Shock, Lightning Bolt, Earth Shock, Lightning Bolt, Earth Shock, Lightning Bolt


/castsequence [@party1] reset=5 Unleash Elements, Riptide
