    Default Moonkin DPS macro(s)

    With so much wonderful analysis on the shaman DPS macros, I'm hoping to get the same for moonkins. What I really need to do is enable Recount and spend some quality time with a target dummy, but there's so much else to do that it's pretty low on my list.

    Without Eclipe I believe that theorycrafting has wrath at an 8% increase in DPS over starfire for a 40% increase in mana consumption. So, assuming mana is not an issue, then spamming wrath is ideal. If mana is an issue, then a mixture of starfire and wrath is appropriate.

    However, Eclipse is what mixes everything up. If you have Ecliple talented, and are multiboxing mooonkins, then what macro(s) do you use?

    I'm guessing this as a starting point:
    /castrandom wrath, wrath, starfire

    I'm virtually guaranteed to not get the full benefit of an Eclipse proc, but I'm also pretty certain I'll get some benefit. I need to test out the percentage of wrath that maximizes a castrandom macro.

    Another question is our DoTs. I think this is probably pretty basic and likely taken care of with something like the following:
    /castsequence moonfire, insect swarm

    However, perhaps a solution that enables spamming would be better. I don't mind overriding some of the DoTs timers as mana efficiency doesn't really seem to be a large problem in WotLK, but I don't want to be moonfire spamming either.

    Another question, do you mix typhoons in your mix? Do you attempt to hurricane with the difficulty of AoE clicking?

    Default

    I dont have numbers right this moment for you, but at this time i dont do anything but a /cr wrath, wrath, starfire. I randomly apply IIS or IFF as needed, and my Boomkins id doing 3100 dps on average semi-ok gear. I spam 1 key, thats it.
