Shaman macros

[suicidesspyder]

Ok can any one link me to where the big discussion was with spell rotation macros for a shaman. I remember reading it but never wrote in it. Now with my dps only sitting at 3k with bis on ptr i know somethings wrong. Thanks.

Spyder,

Two places you can find it: In the Macros Forum, under Macro Compendium, or in the Wiki. Khatovar's Shaman macros are in both places. Hope this helps.

I believe the post is gone (don't ask). However, the result of the discussion should be represented in the Macro Compendium sticky.

You can google search cached pages - search for "site:dual-boxing.com elemental shaman dps macro post 3.2"

I just regemmed my guy not worrying about socket bonus so now shammy is at almost 2800 sp unbuffed little over 3400 self buffed. Now hes hitting 5k dps solo so with other class make ups and buffs ill be hitting alot higher. Plus changed my macro around a little.

This is the macro I use:

/use 13
/use 14
/cast Elemental Mastery
/cast Blood Fury(Racial)
/castsequence reset=combat Flame Shock,Lava Burst,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt
/cast Chain Lightning

I get around 2.6 to 4k with this one depending on the fight. However my shamans only have 2k spellpower selfbuffed.

Mind me asking what macro you were using?

I was just using a fs,lvb, lb, lb, lb, cl then starting over. Now im using a fs, lvb, lb,lb,lb, lvb, cl,lb,lb, lvb, lb,lb,lb,lb.fs,lvb.

With using major glyphs totem of wrath lava burst and flame shock. Gemming everything for pure spell power. I saw about 500-700 more dps increase solo with self buffs. So wonder in a raid what i would do now.

I am trying to perfect a dps macro for my resto shaman. He isn't dual spec but I want him to spam dps and heal when needed. I'll post it if anyone cares and I get it sorted. He just did 608 dps in H-UK, lol. So it needs work.

I use a click castsequence, my timing comma's assume two clicks per second.
I'll repost from my wow macro.cache file.


#show Lightning Bolt
/Cast Elemental Mastery
/Click MultiBarRightButton6
/Click MultiBarRightButton7
/Click MultiBarRightButton8
/Click MultiBarRightButton9


#show Flame Shock
/castsequence reset=combat Flame Shock,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
/use 13
/use 14


#show Lava Burst
/castsequence reset=combat Lava Burst,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,


#show Chain Lightning
/castsequence reset=combat Chain Lightning,,,,,,


#show Lightning Bolt
/cast Lightning Bolt

If you have macros with a relatively short number of commas and can fit 2 into the same macro you can reduce the number of macro spaces required for /click priority listings. I'll use Ualaa's macros for example:

#show Lightning Bolt
/Cast Elemental Mastery
/Click MultiBarRightButton6
/Click MultiBarRightButton6 Right
/Click MultiBarRightButton7
/Click MultiBarRightButton7 Right

Macro on 6

/castsequence reset=combat [btn:1] Flame Shock,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
/use 13
/use 14
/castsequence reset=combat [btn:2] Lava Burst,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Macro on 7

/castsequence reset=combat [btn:1] Chain Lightning,,,,,,
/cast [btn:2] Lightning Bolt

Since the macros are processed all at once it still works just like the separate macros, it just saves a bit of space when you are getting near the 32 macro limit.

fs, lvb, lb,lb,lb, lvb, cl,lb,lb, lvb, lb,lb,lb,lb.fs,lvb..

3 LBs after LvB? is your cast time 2.66s?
Also cl after LVB is bad idea, since its instant it will hit the boss before you will gain CC from lvb, meaning it will cost full amount of mana, always do lb after lvb
