OK, so if you are going to option cast lightning bolt anyway, why do we bother with the nodead, harm conditions at all?

It seems the macro says, "If the target is not dead and harmful, cast LB, and if the target is dead or friendly, try to cast it anyway."

I've been digging through the macros for a while now and I can't seem to get my head around that empty conditional.

EDIT: I think a light bulb just flashed, the empty conditional gets you away from your [target=focus target] if your leader is dead right? So you can just cast from the alt without switching macros?

Also, I think maybe the OP has the #2 macro on autoattack on the war? So when he wants to cast LB his auto is shutting off. Maybe set heroic strike or something to #2 and see?
