Help with warlock imp pet attack macro, and shadowbolting

I need the warlock to shoot his shadow bolt and after i finish casting the imp to start casting.

I am currently using:

#showtooltip Shadow Bolt
/assist focus
/cast Shadow Bolt
/cast [pet:imp,target=focustarget,exists,harm] Firebolt; Firebolt

This macro lets me spam it and pet keep on attacking but, I need this macro do this.

THIS IS WHAT THE MACRO SHOULD DO (Good)
0.0sec Warlock Casting Shadow Bolt
2.5sec Shadow Bolt is fired
2.5sec Imp casting Firebolt

MY MACRO DOES THIS: (Not good)
0.0sec Warlock Casting Shadow bolt
0.0sec Imp Casting Firebolt
1.5sec Imp Firebolt fired
2.5sec Shadow Bolt fired


I read a lot, tryed a lot of different combos of macros, ect.

You can't put any kind of pause or delay in a macro.

wow macro does not allow u set delays on actions
in ur case u can use world coldown like:

lock start casting

imp cast fire shield

imp cast firebolt

+- same time finishing cast

you can use http://www.wowinterface.com/download...AfterCast.html or /in but they only allow benign actions so no petattack or delayed casting

Code:

---

/aftercast /p Click the portal to get %t's lazy butt over here
/cast Ritual of Summoning

---

If you are happy for a double press solution, you could try

Code:

---

#showtooltip Shadow Bolt
 /assist focus
 /cast Shadow Bolt
 /castsequence [pet:imp,target=focustarget,exists,harm][] ,Firebolt

I am liking this set up, but I am having problems with the macro.

Code:

---

/castsequence Unending Breath, Fire Shield, Demon Armor

---

I cast Unending breath, then goes to fire shield cast the fire shield then stops and never cast the demon armor.

I came to that conclusion since I tried the macro cast fireshield on tank then assist the tank on dpsing, it will only cast the fireshield on the tank and never start dpsing.

Anyone got advise or this is just a bug?

i made a wonerful macro today, i tweaked it from this post, to at least auto attack without haveing to press the button 5milling times,

Code:

---

 /petattack [pet:imp,target=targettarget,exists,harm] []

---

edit to your likeing, it makes it easy for the non-focus ppl

Code:

---

 /petattack [pet:imp,target=focustarget,exists,harm] []

---

and ^^ for you focus ppl

There is plenty of addons available on the internet that allow you to use timed pause's in your macros by simple having /in 0.5 or /in 1.0 etc....

You can only use "/in" for things like /say etc, not for anything combat related. Anything that allows you to pause between combat related actions is against Blizzard TOS and using tools like that is an invitation to get banned.
