There is a typo in your third macro "exits"
Where are all the danged macros at? I still am using my Cata macros for the time being.
*shrug* No one wants to submit anything. Maybe they're scared of me.
Maybe we should add an ISBoxer Pro category for those of us using the 'Like a Pro' setup? I've used spam macro's, 2 step and Priorty but have moved on to the Pro setup and like it a lot better than the previous models. I know this would be specific to ISBoxer users and I don't know how many people are using the Pro setup but it would give some of us the ability to contribute our setups under your consolidated thread.
The Pro method is literally a priority system.
But it could likely be improved a fair ways, by migrating towards a set of macros.
You push your "1" key, and that does your single target spells.
Not a specific spell, but every spell that is available for your Class/Level/Spec.
At least the CLS version, which is based off of "Like a Pro", see: http://isboxer.com/forum/viewtopic.p...e985532200bebc
You might be better off with four buttons:
A) Castsequence One, Two, Three
B) Castsequence One, One, One, Four
C) Cast Five
D) Cast Six
Rather than: Push 1, and have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 all mashed together.
Similarly, for an Elemental Shaman, the "2" key (which is AoE)...
Might be better off with a castsequence including Fire Nova Totem and a bunch of Chain Lightnings, rather than randomly spamming both of those keys (and recasting Fire Nova several times, before it has expired).
That's exactly my point, it can be refined even more than it has currently been presented. In my own experience I’m finding that some classes work much better when you define key mapped steps for one or two abilities and then stack a number of steps in a key map for that class / spec. In my observation it takes some of the randomness out of the basic priority system which to my knowledge is really just the game randomly picking a key to execute, it’s not really walking down the sequence.
Take my Prot Warrior setup for example, it’s a 3 step DPS rotation where each step is a similar set of abilities, each starts with ‘Charge’ which means no matter what he’s going to charge to the target if he’s got minimum charge range.
Step 1: Victory Rush, Shield Block, Shield Slam
Step 2: Shockwave, Thunder Clap
Step 3: Revenge, Devastate
Attachment 713
By breaking things out in this way I’ve found that he’s much more probable to trigger a given ability on CD or when he has enough rage, much more so than when I stacked it all in a single step.
Again this is just my limited experience with this setup and for me I’ve found it able to get much closer to the DPS output of a played character than any other system I’ve tried with MoP.
So it's just a hybrid system, not a big deal. I use steps with my priority setup too, and I don't use ISBoxer. This is why I set it up to link to the original threads for details like that.
If people post things I can put it in the thread, but I can't guess about what people aren't really talking about or sharing. It's all been pretty hush hush around here since MoP launched.
If you want to force an ability to fire off, after another ability...
For example, how Khatovar's Unholy Death Knight does: /castsequence Horn of Winter, Blood Boil...
You can have a named macro library action, which rather than calling a single spell (via IS Boxer macro) it calls a castsequence.
Your step one shows (Mash these four abilities):
a) Charge
b) Victory Rush
c) Shield Block
d) Shield Slam
Assuming they're not going to lock up (and Charge could, if you're too close/too far), Step 1 could be a castsequence.
Not really sure what is optimal for a Prot warrior, but this post is a collection of MoP macros.
And the CLS thread on isboxer.com is also.
Do we have a thread for enter/leave/queue/accept etc. dungeons, battlegrounds, drop group, reset etc.? If not I'll start a thread, I have all of those. I was gonna post em here but then i realized it was dps/pvp/healing macros.
I've got a "Super Awesome Useful Macros" section in the Newb's Guide Vol 2 but I'm sure it doesn't have everything. You can add them there or start your own thread that people can add to, and I can cross link it here and the Newb's guides.
Probably already known, and I'll have more once the server is restarted, But without using IsBoxer, which is gonna change as I got 4 more gig of memory for the PC woot! , this is my set up for two classes anyways.
Pallytank AOE
I hot cast Hammer of Wrath.Code:
/click MultiBarLeftButton2
/click MultiBarLeftButton3
single Tank
/click MultiBarLeftButton1
/click MultiBarLeftButton3
On the left, I have then;
Button 1
/startattack
/castsequence reset=combat Judgment,Sacred Shield, Crusader Strike, Crusader Strike, Crusader Strike
button 2
/castsequence reset=combat Judgment, Sacred Shield, Holy Wrath, Hammer of the Righteous,Consecration, Hammer of the Righteous,Hammer of the Righteous, Shield of the Righteous
Button 3 is just shield of righteousness.
For Shaman, basic set up is as follows...
For Single target, just replace Chain Lightning with Lightning bolt.Code:/cast elemental Mastery
/use 13
/use 14
/click MultiBarRightButton1
/click MultiBarRightButton2
AOE
/castsequence reset=combat Flame shock, Chain Lightning, Chain Lightning, Lightning Bolt, Chain Lightning, Earth Shock, Chain Lightning, Chain Lightning
lavaburst on Right Button2
Both of these would need tweaks for other peeps, but they work for me, and my satellite connection, given the huge ping time. Trust me though, once I get ISBoxer going, these will change to a priority or 2 step system.
Trying to run ISboxer and 5 accounts on 4 gig of ram just wasn't cutting it, so I went up to 6, and next month 8.
Stephen
It looks like you're missing macros. You've got 3 buttons listed for the Pally, but only 2 macros. For the Shaman, the first macro is Elemental Mastery + trickets and the second is the castsequence? Or is there a version without Chain Lightning?
Sorry Khat, yeah, the first shaman macro is your spam key, for example, I have it on 3. Bleh, I need to go back and edit, I see what you mean.
Ok, I think that is a bit better. I knew I should have had some coffee before starting this. LOL, thanks for catching this Khat.
Stephen
I eat coffee from the can. Seems to work better for me that way. Seems more natural.
I've thought about hooking up an IV. My wife will drink one , maybe two pots of that nasty flavored stuff, while I brew a 32 cup machine twice a day.
I'll be sure to share some of mine when I max level all of my teams, and they'll be shared as well in at ISBoxer.com for the guys using the CLS Like a Pro config :)
I do like your spot here Khat on what you're building. I think what the issue is, that not a lot know what to use for their current spec as of yet. Since MoP is pretty new, and stuff keeps changing inside, like soon the Warriors get nerfed PVP wise in one aspect and blah blah blah... Once the dust settle's at Blizzard on releasing all of these new releases, then I'm pretty sure a lot will share more macros once they are fine tuned.
Like I said, I'll be happy to contribute more once I level all of my teams up to 85-90 and the dust settle's at Blizz on all of their patches :/

Adding [combat] should prevent them from casting totems unless they're already in combat. I don't mind if they drop totems on the way into combat.
I was tryin out a /swapactionbar macro setup for Blood Deathknight and came up with this. Might could use some work to it, not sure if it's the best priority setup, but it's what I've come up with so far while out grinding leather. Seems to fire off everything well. I am currently using Runic Corruption instead of Blood Tap or Runic Empowerment, seems to work out better with this.
Macro 1:
#showtooltip 16 (shows mainhand weapon icon & tooltip)
/cast [nocombat] Outbreak
/castsequence [mod] reset=2 Icy Touch,Plague Strike,null
/castsequence reset=0.3 1,2,Blood Boil
/castsequence reset=0.3 1,Death Strike
/cast Rune Strike
/swapactionbar 1 4
/cast Rune Tap
Macro 2:
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=0.3 1,Heart Strike
/cast [combat] !Dancing Rune Weapon
/startattack
/swapactionbar 1 4
/cast Blood Tap
/cast !Bone Shield
/cast !Lifeblood
/cast !Vampiric Blood
/cast !Horn of Winter
You can change it up anyway you want, but here is what's working for me so far. I've noticed that by the time it gets back to using Death Strike, I've got 5 stacks of Scent of Blood waiting, and not that long either. With Blood Boil mixed in there, it'll fire off the free ones from Crimson Scourge and refresh diseases at the same time. Also comes in handy when you have all runes on cooldown and no Runic Power to spend.
I kept Blood Tap in there so in case I do switch back to that, it's in there still and I don't have to worry about fixing my macro on the fly. Plus, I'm still testing out which is best for the talents, I don't always follow sites like Noxxic to the T for setups, and our playstyle is never the same as others, so I keep that in mind when setting up my toons. Hope this helps some, vote for this to be added to the sticky if y'all want.
You probably want to include Elemental Blast in your Macro.
Khatovar added this to the Macro library, but it would be a DPS loss without Elemental Blast. I don't use the format above so not sure if this would be best, but maybe a number 7.?
7.
/stopmacro [channeling]
/cast Elemental Blast
I was only level 87 when I submitted the macros. I will update tonight as I have made some improvements to the shaman macro. I ended up dropping Unleash Elements from the rotation and I did pickup Elemental blast ...
I have found that placing the castsequences earlier (ie #1 vs #6 ... I spam 123456) gives better results. While my arcane mage and survival hunter still do better dps I have seen a marked improvement. Note these macros assume you have taken certain talents (Elemental Mastery, Ancenstral Guidance, Elemental Blast)

This provided a clear boost of about 30% to my shaman who just hit 90 (still in questing gear). Thanks! Hopefully she won't be the sad stepsister of the shadowpriest and the lock anymore...
Excellent macro thanks so much... for an AoE version I replace 2. with this:
7.
/stopmacro [channeling]
/cast multi-shot
But that is with ZERO theorycrafting behind it, hoping someone could correct me? I do very good dps in LFR by using that on Trash though, so am happy with it.
Just talking about the trash packs but over 100k usually around 110-120 depending on the size of the pack of course. I'm not sure if that's an accurate way to look at it... I'm usually 1st, 2nd or 3rd in raid DPS on the trash. Single target I drop down quite a bit (obviously) to around 60k depending on boss. This is all in LFR so a marginal step up in difficulty from target dummies :p
Oh and my Hunter is only iLvl 474 so I think that is pretty good. For some reason my Playerscore add-on isn't working so I haven't been able to compare my gear very well to other hunters in the raid.
I have seen several of these marco setups and have no clue where to begin to use and apply them to the game. I get told numbers before to the abilities are hotbars (by your Marco #1 there should be two hotbars to do marco #1:
#showtooltip 16 (shows mainhand weapon icon & tooltip)
/cast [nocombat] Outbreak
/castsequence [mod] reset=2 Icy Touch,Plague Strike,null
/castsequence reset=0.3 1,Blood Boil
/cast Death Strike
/swapactionbar 1 4
/cast Rune Tap
#showtooltip 16 (shows mainhand weapon icon & tooltip)
/cast [nocombat] Outbreak
/castsequence [mod] reset=2 Icy Touch,Plague Strike,null
/cast Blood Boil
/swapactionbar 1 4
/cast Rune Tap
but when I look at the addon Bartender it only shows me actionbars and not hotbars. Ant advise would help.
Actionbars and hotbars are the same thing.
Swapactionbar in game
Another post explaining mulitstep and swapactionbar
Wowpedia on Swapactionbar
changeactionbar and swapactionbar are pretty much interchangeable.

This is for affliction locks. I pulled it from lazymacros.com so use with caution.
Ok, for Affliction Warlock this is my 3 step rotation. Priority based has a problem with not being able to wait for a spell to finish countdown before re-casting.
step 1(key 1) /castsequence [nochanneling] reset=combat/alt Curse of the Elements,Summon Doomguard,null

/use 13
/use 14
seems to work fairly well, was able to pull 34-38 dps with average gear and enchants. Hope this help. Any feedback is appreciated.........
For my Arcane Mage i did a 4 Step macro , just to help out with timing issues.
Step 1 /castsequence [nochanneling] reset=combat/alt Living Bomb,Arcane Blast,Arcane Blast
Step 2 /castsequence [nochanneling] reset=combat/alt Arcane Blast,Arcane Blast,Arcane Blast
Step 3 /castsequence [nochanneling] reset=combat/alt Arcane Blast,Arcane Missiles,Arcane Blast
Step 4 /castsequence [nochanneling] reset=combat/alt Arcane Blast,Arcane Blast,Arcane Missiles
/cast Arcane Power
/use 13
/use 13
again it worked out not too bad with average gear, was able to get 35-45 dps
