I have separate macros for DoT's and Direct Damage.

This is my boomkin DoT macro:
Code:
 
/petattack 
/castsequence [harm][target=party1target, harm] reset=target/combat Faerie Fire, null 
/castsequence [harm][target=party1target, harm] reset=target/combat/18 Moonfire, Insect Swarm, Starfire, Starfire, Starfire
Those starfire spells at the end of macro are there so i have something to cast while waiting for other toons to finish their DoT cast OR i'm too busy to notice when to switch back to DD macro OR I try to cast DoT's before castsequence is reseted. I have /petattack command in there because I usually use treants and DoTs only during boss fights. Trashmobs die too fast for DoTs or treants to be useful.

Direct Damage macro:
Code:
 
/stopmacro [channeling] 
/use <DPS Trinket> 
/castrandom [harm][target=party1target, harm] Wrath, Wrath, Starfire
Last night I tested my solo DPS on Boss Dummy and got average of 2,7k. I'm not hit capped and gear is 1/3 blue items and 2/3 naxx epics.

Currently I'm leveling a mixed group. Final setup should be Prot Pala, Holy Priest, Boomkin, Ele Shaman and a Mage (not sure of spec atm). I hope to boost my groups dps with wide variety of buffs and debuffs.
I am using this exact same group makeup and the dps in GROUP is MUCH higher than individual. For me, arcane spec mage is the best and is on par with or outdps's my elemental shaman even though he outgears him moderately.


DPS #'s: (All on dungeon heroic bosses)

Mage: 3k (w/heroism 4k+)

Shaman: 3k (w/heroism 4k+)

Moonkin: 2200-2600 (w/heroism 3200 to 3400)

Shadow Priest (when he doesn't need to heal): 1400 (w/heroism 1800)

I will be posting my druid's current macro and I believe my mage macro is already in this thread. I tried the Frostfire Bolt build and it fails compared to arcane, even with arcane being a castsequence macro!
