My Action Bars and Macro List
Hi,
First post so be gentle;)
I run 5 shammies or 4 shammies and a paladin. Mosty with the pally now, its actually harder to hold in my head what everyone is doing but I figure I should start learning it now for heroics, etc. I will be levelling the fifth shammy to for PVP. We are currently level 61 on ShadowsongEU and just cleared Rampart. Some deaths but no major wipes.
When I was setting up my team I used this place a lot, but what would have helped would be a full listing of actionbars and macros and how people actually went about doing this. Since the community has unknowingly helped me so much I thought I'd post mine to help anyone in my situation.
First off: Wutang is my Pallie, he is fully protection specced. Tollie is my, healer she is fully resto specced, the other three are elemental. Tollie and Wutang have two action bars listed because out in the world tollie just dpses and wutang doesnt do much of anything, most stuff is dead long before it reaches me, so when his action bar 1 is lit he just tries to do dps. Tollie likewise will just use "lightheal" which casts lightning bolt unless a modifier key is held in which case she heals wutang. In instances this is just swapped with "HealLight" which is the other way round, she defaults to healling wutang.
In instance I pull by hitting my pull macro 3 times. this uses avengers shield, holy shield and drops consecrate while also dropping my "prefight" totems, then i can switch to dps and tanking. I also have some in fight totem macros which sequentially drop grounding totem from each shammy.
I have action bar "7" also mapped to my "F" key for emergencies (i dont need assist). This casts chain heal on the shammies and righteous defence on tollie, she has a habit of drawing agro from casters.
Two action buttons are to set focus and cast lightning on focus rather than wutang's target, this i first made to kill of the healers on the first boss in ramparts while wutang tanks the boss but Ive found it useful so it got promoted to my primary actionbar.
Button 0 is clear because i use it for quest items.
I have the bottom left actionbar turned on, and mapped shift+ 1 to = to these actions, for mounting up, buffing, dropping mana tide, etc. I havent shown these buttons because they are all fairly self explanatory. Some macros appear in the listing but not on the actionbar because they are on this extra bar. I run jamba on all of my accounts for looking after partying, chatting, warnings, quest management and all that jazz and omen and ctmod on the primary for agro watching and map coordinates, etc. To actually mb I run keyclone on a single machine with 2x24" widescreen monitors, primary on one monitor, the other 4 tiled on second monitor.
Major problem right now is mana efficiency on Wutang. He runs oom in seconds and in long fights relies entirely on healling and mana spring to replenish it. I will have to think about my "Tank" macro to see if I can make it more mana efficient.
I should point out none of these macros are my own work, They all come from these forums.
All this might be usless and folks may want it deleted, in which case, hey, delete it. Or people may want to suggest improvements. I dont mind, just trying to help. If anyone wants a copy of the macro-cache files that go with them drop me a line, then to try it out you can just copy em to your wow instance and change some names.
I couldnt get the [table] bbcode to work, guess its turned off so I put the listing at:
