target=focustarget + nochanneling? HELP!

[Poolboy]

Gahhhhrggglllrgrlllrllllllrrrrgggrrr *murloc death cry!*

OK, I have been looking high and low!! I use target=focustarget for my Mages offensive spells whenever possible, so that I can have their selected targets free for sheeping when needed.

I cannot for the life of me write a proper Arcane Missiles macro that combines it and nochanneling? I am no coder thats for sure, but I am sure people use one? I've looked high and low here, google, mage boards, everywhere. Sigh.

Can anyone who's better at proper macro writing give me a hand please?

Thanks in advance!

/cast [target=focustarget, nochanneling:Arcane Missiles] Arcane Missiles


/cast [target=focustarget, nochanneling:Arcane Missiles] Fireball


/cast [target=focustarget, nochanneling:Arcane Missiles] Scorch

Not tested but that is how I understand it should look...

They cast Fireball and Scorch respectively. You might not have Scorch yet depending on your level but you should have Fireball. The macros will only cast if you are not currently channeling Arcane Missile.

Pay attention to the "cycles" for your build. These builds and cycles are not optimal but it is a good starting point at optimizing your mage DPS.
