/click Macro help needed

Hello everyone,

I previously post on pvp forum but I have more chances to get help here. So to start with sorry for double post.
I want to switch to /click since I find many advantages on that.

Here's what I want:
0 - Spam Wind Shear
1 - Cast Flame Shock and Use Trinket
2 - Use Berserking and cast Chain Lightning
3 - Cast Elemental Mastery and Cast (instant) Lava Burst
4 - Fill in with Lightning Bolts and throw Bloodlust

I have (note: not yet the arena targets, this is just to test in dummies):

0 - Spam Wind Shear
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/cast wind shear
/click BonusActionButton1
/click BonusActionButton2
/click BonusActionButton3
/click BonusActionButton4
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

1 - Cast Flame Shock and use Trinket
#showtooltip Flame Shock
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/use Platinum Disks of Sorcery
/castsequence reset=5 Flame Shock,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

2 - Use Berserking and cast Chain Lightning
#showtooltip Chain Lightning
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/cast berserking
/castsequence reset=4 Chain Lightning,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

3 - Cast Elemental Mastery and Cast (instant) Lava Burst
#showtooltip Lava Burst
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/cast elemental Mastery
/castsequence reset=8 Lava Burst,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

4 - Fill in with Lightning Bolts and throw Bloodlust
#showtooltip Lightning Bolt
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence reset=300 Bloodlust, null
/cast Lightning Bolt
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

Everything is working just fine, waiting for the correct cds and all except that it's the chain lightning that's getting the Instant effect from EM. Maybe it's because I'm bashing maybe another reason but I'd like to know if someone can help me here.
What is happening is that as soon as I press the /click macro it uses both berserking and EM immediately.

Another note, I really intend to put chain lightning before the Instant LvB. Since it's an instant I'm pretty sure (well...) I'll be able to cast it and hopefully I can cast CL while they're coming. Teams are really aggressive (imo) in my BG.
Also, throwing the CL before the instant LvB also puts more pression on the opponent team and hopefully increases doubt on who am I REALLY targetting first.

I put Bloodlust on auto for now since so far I really don't use it much (due to lack of skill/reaction). Normally if I use the IWIN macro it means it's an intense moment in the fight so maybe it's not bad to put BL here. We'll see...

Thank you in advance.

What you are trying will not work as EM is off the GCD. It will cast on the first press so will be up when you cast your CL. You need to add an artificial delay to prevent this ie

/castsequence ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,EM,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, (etc)

Tried it but I can't find a suitable amount of commas to put before the EM tu assure 100% efficiency on casting it at the right time.
I always thought that /click, "clicked" the buttons one at a time in the sequence given but it doesn't seem to be the case since he's activating a spell in the 3rd button at the same time as the one in the first. Maybe because it's out of the gcd, maybe not, I don't know.

If impossible with the /click is there any other way to do it, binded to a single button?

Thank you

I think it works on something like:

/use 13
/cast berserking
/castsequence reset=combat flame shock, chain lightning, elemental mastery, lava burst, lightning bolt

It's just not mashable till EM is up again or you make a really really long macro :)

This is a longshot, but what about another click to force the proper sequence? Like :

Code:

---

2 - Use Berserking and cast Chain Lightning
#showtooltip Chain Lightning
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/cast berserking
/castsequence reset=4 Chain Lightning, Elemental Mastery, null
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

3 -  Cast (instant) Lava Burst
#showtooltip Lava Burst
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence reset=8 Lava Burst,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

New #4 - Chain Lightning
#showtooltip Chain Lightning
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence reset=4 ,,,,,,,Chain Lightning,,,,,,,,,,
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

5 - Fill in with Lightning Bolts and throw Bloodlust
#showtooltip Lightning Bolt
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/castsequence reset=300 Bloodlust, null
/cast Lightning Bolt
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

Leading the second Chain Lightning with commas should let you drop LBs until CL is up again. Like I said, longshot, but maybe? *shrug*

No click just allows you to extend macro length (with the additional benefit of modularising your macros)

/Click button 1
/Click button 2

Button 1
/Cast LB

Button
/Cast EM

will have the exact functionality of

/Cast LB
/Cast EM

you could try adding EM to your second /click ie

2 - Use Berserking and cast Chain Lightning
#showtooltip Chain Lightning
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/cast berserking
/castsequence reset=4 Chain Lightning, Elemental Mastery,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

but again its not really spammable except at the start - you probably want to keep you spam button seperate from your blow someone up every 3mins button

Thank you for your help. You might have pointed the right direction but it's not that yet :).
It's casting EM just after the Lava Burst but I just fell we have something here :).

OC the other solution is as you say keep it separate but in any case since it's a every 3m macro that takes few seconds to cast, /click might not even be worth it.

If you have any more ideas I still want to go for it :)

Ok, what if you make it a whole string?

#3 = /castsequence reset=4 Chain Lightning, Elemental Mastery, Lava Burst, null
#4 = /castsequence reset=4 ,,,,,,,Chain Lightning,,,,,,,,,,
#5 = /castsequence reset=4 ,,,,,,,Lava Burst,,,,,,,,,,

Commas adjusted accordingly and all that.

Basically with Click, you are doing every macro at once.
But it executes top down, so the first click will have priority over the second click, if both share the GCD.

An ability like Elemental Mastery, which is not on the GCD, is activated on the first click, because regardless of which button its on, it does not interfere with other spells.
It is not consumed by Flame Shock because that is already an instant cast.
So the first non-instant cast on any of the buttons gets Elemental Mastery.

If the primary purpose of this macro is for pvp, I'd have two macro's.

The first would be your spam dps macro, which wouldn't include Elemental Mastery.
Basically, go with Flame Shock, Lava Burst, Chain Lightning, Lightning Bolt, as your dps spells.
You can weave Wind Shear in, probably staggered for each shammy so you're not casting all of them at once.
You might place Frost Shock into this macro, for the snare/inconvenience on others.

The I-Win macro would be easiest to execute as a castsequence and not a click spam.
Go with:
#show Elemental Mastery
/castsequence [target=focus] Elemental Mastery, Flame Shock, Lava Burst, Chain Lightning, Frost Shock.
It will show Elemental Mastery, so you know when its off of cooldown; the target is focus, so you just need to target someone and have every shammy lightning bolt or purge them, thereby acquiring them as a target. Then do the same to someone else. One of the targets is marked as everyone's focus, and gets to be obliterated when the time is right.
