Hey, I wanted to know if there was a way to make a macro that casts all 4 totems you want to use on your shaman one after another. If so id like to see that set up. :thumbsup:

If you mean with one button press, then no. If you mean with one button press per totem...
Code:/castsequence reset=20/combat Stoneskin Totem, Healing Stream Totem, Searing Totem
are you saying with that i can cast my 4 totems but i click it 4 times?
The way that macro works is that the /castsequence command says that "each time I press this button cast the next spell in the list". The reset flag in there tells the game how it should start back at the beginning of the list.Quote:

So if you have:
/castsequence spell1, spell2, spell3 then each time you press the button the next spell will get casted. You need to press the button 3 times to get all 3 to cast.
And if you have:
reset=5 then the game basically resets the macro if you haven't pressed the key for 5 seconds. So lets say you hit the key once, it casts spell1, you immediately hit it again, it casts spell 2, then you don't do anything else with that key. After 5 seconds the macro goes back to the start.
The reset flag doesn't have to be a timer, it can be a key that you hit to reset your macro, like escape.
I dont have my macros file at work obviously, but I will post up my totem drop macros (have 2 for pve, 1 for pvp) that allow for a button-mashing-totem-forest-of-fun when I get home.
Also, I would highly suggest checking out a totem manager addon like YATA (ace) or something similar. This makes setting up your totem weaves much easier.
Example: for pve I want windfury, GoA, grounding, grounding for my winds, fire is 4x Tot of Wrath, earth is stoneskin, tremor, strength and earthbind and Water is healing, healing, mana, poison/disease/healing depending on the dungeon. Each sham has a different sequence of totems they drop. For PvE I will usually just drop them by type (drop fire, drop earth, drop air, drop water) to make re-dropping easier ... grounding totems come to mind.
For PvP I stagger them so that tremor totems are staggered (with 3 tremor totems all pulsing at 3secs each, if you drop them at roughly 1 sec intervals you should have almost no fear time.
Occasionally there is a boss fight where I have to setup a different set - Shadow Labs 2nd boss comes to mind, where dropping a couple earthbinds and a couple stoneclaws helped alot in the mind control phase with keeping my toons from ripping each other up.
Here's my 5 shaman sequence. Still tweaking the PVP one -- I Just recently hit 70 and starting to run lots of AV so I'm still figuring out what's best.
Oh and yes, you need to hit the key 4x. I have the PVP bound to "z" and the PVE bound to "x". Totemic recall is "shift-x". Easy as cake. ;)
(nice, the color-coded macro from word even copied over too.)

that looks way better than the copy and paste I was about to do!
You might want to put the searing totem at the front (yeah I know it could agro). It has a 30second life while the other totems have a 2 minute life... so after 30 seconds when you want to refresh your searing totem you will waste time and mana re-dropping Stoneskin and healing streamQuote:

or maybe it would be better like this:
Code:/castsequence [nocombat] reset=combat Stoneskin Totem, Healing Stream Totem, Searing Totem
/castsequence [combat] reset=29/combat Searing Totem,Stoneskin Totem, Healing Stream Totem
