Pally Macro using /click and castrandom

[Greythan]

Okay, so I use Bartender4 and don't want to switch to Macaroon. The 6969 macro is over the limit. Any way to break this into multiple macros? I'm thinking I may be forced into a /castrandom setup because of this limitation.

EDIT: Had the macro coded wrong. Its exactly 255 with my using Judgement of Wisdom for a caster-heavy group.

Wowphreaks 6969 works great. I'm even glyphed for improved consecration which extends the cooldown to 10 secs. Watching testing dummy looked like spells were firing on all cooldowns or at least very close. Not sure this has to be perfect anyway, but easy.

I don't follow the coding of avenger's shield in so many people's macros. Its a pull tool for me and not something I envision in a sequence anyway. So, I have it on its own button. Really would be a two step macro for me.

Next question: In Hefner's macro, it is safe to presume that the third click will fire if the second macro (the 6969) is skipping a global? Otherwise, the castsequence in the second button (6969) would always fire a spell never getting to the third click, right?

I was being dismissive to wolpak, who had been dismissive to me. Not to you Simulcra. Look at my first post in the thread...

As far as keeping Holy Shield up 100% of the time... it is not as important in WotLK... it was vital in BC because you needed ti to push crushing blows off the hit table. They aren't on there, and if you have 540 defense, then criticals aren't either... so the only thing constant block capping provides you is pushing hit off the table (in exchange for block). While this is great for fast hitting bosses, it does little for hard hitting bosses. And your macro, as provided above, is going to have alot of deadspace, and alot of abilities off cooldown...

ahhh sorry /slap me - I hate the interwebz sometimes lol

I've been thinking about this today instead of working wowphreaks macro works for him and you and lots of other people so why not for me? I think it may be a case of expectation management. I'm looking for a macro combo that will replicate me, which is what mine nearly does and wowphreaks doesn't for some bizarre reason. I'm going to give his macro another go and report back. But that'll be awhile as I'm over in the UK for work and only have my work laptop >.< so I'll just be levelling my lock.

Whats not working if yeh spam it'll nail every gcd shield should up all the time as with consecrate.

here a great example someone made a vid of what suppose look like when yeh do it manually they hit every gcd which means there getting the max dps/tps they can get out of the pali.

here's a great explanation of it http://www.pinkraidframes.com/blog/?p=73

Greythan: if yeh really against adding another addon, I can understand why, yeh can use

/castsequence Holy Shield, Hammer of the Righteous, Judgement of Light,Shield of Righteousness,Consecration, Hammer of the Righteous, Holy Shield,Shield of Righteousness,Judgement of Light, Hammer of the Righteous, Consecration,Shield of Righteousness

It really doesn't matter where yeh start in the chain only problem will be yeh might not be cover by Holy Shield up to 6-7 seconds of the beginning of the fight.

OK - remembered why wowphreaks macro didn't work that well for me, it was because I was using a modified version as the original one wasn't within the 255 char limit (258 long) and my modified version was crap - so, sorry about that wowphreak

/castsequence reset=combat Holy Shield,Hammer of the Righteous,Judgement of Light,Shield of Righteousness,Consecration,Hammer of the Righteous,Holy Shield,Shield of Righteousness,Judgement of Light,Hammer of the Righteous,Consecration,Shield of Righteousness

So the question is what are you putting this macro into so that it fits? I could probably sort something out in bindpad maybe, I don't run BT4 or macaroon

Forgot about this thread. Show me where I was dismissive? I asked for people to test out the macro and you said it ain't gonna work.

Let's just drop that part or take it to PM's. The content in this thread is actually pretty interesting.
