I guess this could be for just about any class but what I am trying to do is have 1 button to buff both my guys.

I tryed this and it was an epic phail

Pally:
/cast Righteous Fury
/target (mypalliesnamehere)
/cast Blessing of Wisdom
/target (mydruidsnamehere)
/cast Blessing of Wisdom

As u can see in this one I want it to first cast Righteous Fury on my pally then blessing of wisdom, then i want to cast blessing of wisdom on my druid.
This only cast Righteous Fury and then targeted my druid, hench im an epic phailboat when it comes to writing macros.

I was thinking maybe some sort of castsequence?? I think what I'm trying to achieve would require me pushing that button 3 times to get it all done.

then for my druid I want her to cast Mark of the wild on herself, markof the wild on my pally, and then thorns on my pally.

Basically this would be a 1 button spam every 10 mins and im good button.

Can someone please help me out here because I'm feeling like a total noob on this one. Thx in advance.

i dunno if there is a better way but i use a G15 and i have 2 buttons for buffs...

1. i hit F1 and hit the buff button, hit F2 and hit the buff button, F3 and so on so so all party members get buffs, on each toon i have that "buff" key bound to like, AI, Fort, Blessing of whatever...

2. this key i have bound for ice armor, rightous fury, lightning shield, demon armor...ie whatever self buff the caster has so they all buff themselves at the same time...


i'm sure there is a easier way using cast sequence macros but that would still take up 2 macro spots in the end so i just do it this way.

I'm pretty sure you'll have to push the button 3 times to cast three different buffs. Right now, since I have a group consisting of paladin+priest+mage, there is only the blessing of wisdom to worry about - so I'd do this in my macro:
/targetparty
/cast [nodead, help] Blessing of Wisdom And for my mage, I do the same with Arcane Intellect, and the priest for Power Word: Fortitude - and bound to the same button, key passed through... Three hits and the group is buffed.

Only thing with this, you can't do the self buff spells in the same macro. If only Blizz would let us do conditional tests on the target with macros. Something like /cast [noaura=Blessing of Wisdom] Blessing of Wisdom. But that'd be a bit too easy, wouldn't it?
