Help with Elem Shaman Macro

[Sam DeathWalker]

You can't create macros that work off of timed delays in game, and you can't have the game make decisions for you {if x amount of time has passed, allow this, otherwise...}. Using external programs to circumvent that would be against the rules.



I had that concern at first but becuase its a lock out, not a delay it seems OK to me. You are correct if it was a Delay it would be illegal for sure. But again exactly what rule does this violate?



... I thought it was illegal also at the first but after Lax explained it to me it seems ok. It follows the one action one press rule. And remember, if you press once it fires, if you press the 2nd time inside the time limit it does nothing you STILL have to press after the time limit for anything to be done.

Its the same as the ,,,,,, are they not telling you that the key press is to do nothing if the press is done at a time interval known to you (i.e. your press rate). You are inserting a delay based upon your click interval (which I assume you know what your click interval is), how is this different?


Or if you spam a single spell and its cool down is not up the press does nothing .... again how is this different then that?

Yet antoher way to look at it is if you have 4 different keys, one for each step/macro. If you spam 1-2-3-4 what happens? Well if you hit key 1 then pressed key 2 before the gcd was up from the spell on key one nothing would happen. You could press key 2 many many times and if the gcd on key 1 was not expired then nothing happens. Surely if its clearly legal with 4 keys then its legal with one key (and again with 4 keys its better cause the game will adjust for haste effects for you instead of you have to miss out a bit).
