XeRR pressents CataCLICK

[Lyonheart]

I have been testing a few variations of this on beta, and will start testing this on live today. I was doing many rounds on the target dummies using the exact macro the OP used. I ended up getting the best results using two hotkeys on my main bar

button#1 /castsequence reset=combat flame shock, unleash elements
/button#2 /click hotbarbutton9
/click hotbarbutton10 ( this is just for example.. i use bartender bars )

then i just have a single target version of...

/castsequence lightning bolt,lightning bolt ( its has to be a /castsequence for the fall through LvB to work)

and a ae version with..

/castsequence cl,lb,lb, ( CL is on a 3 second timer so in ae situations where theres too few mobs for earthquake this will cast cl then two LBs and repeat, at 85 it burns the mana up fast)

So i hit button#1 to apply FS and UE. Using UE ups the dps a lot if you apply it to be used with the next LvB. UEs cooldown last the same time as the FS dot ( unglyhped ) So i watch the cooldown on UE to determine when to hit button #1 again.
Due to the nature of LvBs being up at different times, due to Lava Surge resets, a LvB might not always be ready when you use your Unleash Elements, thats ok.. it will apply the bonus damage on your next LvB. You just don't want to waste it on a flame shock, thus why I made a macro casting FS then UE. Again, this will be for boxing and not if your playing a shamy solo, where you can time your FS applications and UE more precisely.

You can also include everything in a single macro like the OPs and do ok,but i got upward of 2k+ more dps doing it my way.

note: Unleash Elements is a lvl 81 spell, so its not in the OPs macro since hes testing on PTR at 80.

Unleash Elements: Focuses the elemental force imbued in the Shaman's weaponry, with the concentrated effects depending on the enchantment unleashed.
See individual weapon imbue spell tooltips for details regarding the effects of unleashing each.
7% of base mana, 40 yd range, Instant cast, 15 sec cooldown

So when used with Flametongue weapon enchant: ( Unleash Weapon : Unleashing this enchantment deals 1022.97 to 1213.03 Fire damage to an enemy target and increases the damage dealt by the Shaman's next Fire spell by 20%. )

Wondering if these macros could be stickied once confirmed. I imagine there will be a lot of needless threads created for people wanting to find the new macro set for each class.

So you basically need a castsequence of abilities with cast times in excess of the GCD.
And then a /cast of a single ability.

no.. just stick the lava burst on its own button ( no macro ) and have the second /click line diercted to it

It will be interesting to see what the effect of "tuning" your latency into bliz's new system has on this strategy. If this effectively removes the small gaps between each spell in the castsequence then our fall through will not work, so possibly not the ideal solution for shammies, but will hopefully be a tool to remove the latency penalty for castsequence for other classes.

Downloading patch now, but if anyone gets to test this with the custom latency tuner, please post.

MultiBarRightButton1
( In this slot you have a standart sequence key, you start of with flameshock after that chainlightning
because it will grant you the most charges on Lightning Shield if it hits multiple targets, after that it goes for
lightningbolt twice and then chainlightning again followed by an Earthshock, the reason i put the Earthshock here is
first of all to be sure it keeps the shock cooldown ready for flameshock but also because it´s right after the chainlightning
which means if you are luckey you could in theory use Earthshock before the chainlightning effect comes which would
imidiatly make you grant some extra Lightning Shield charges right after Earthshock " I sometimes see it jumps to 6 charges
right when it hits Earthshock " and the damage from Earthshock is redicules... then 3x Lightning bolt and repeat...

You might want to create a macro without chainlightnings for single target, that requires
more lightning bolts in order to keep reaching as many charges on lightningshield as possible,
but this also means youd need an addon allowing you to make macros futher than 255 cap


-----------------------------------------------------------------
/castsequence reset=combat Flame Shock,Chain Lightning,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Chain Lightning,Earth Shock,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt
-----------------------------------------------------------------


MultiBarLeftButton1
(This is actually no macro at all, its just lava burst dragged out of the spellbook)



Key2 / CataCLICK macro
This is just the standart click key, i didnt ad the command for the annoying click sound, since i basically just
made it to test it, but what it does is, it will start with MultiBarRightButton1 as the very first spell then it would try
to go for MultiBarLeftButton1 if possible since the click command for a single spell is stronger than castsequence,
when that is said when ever lava burst is ready it will go for it and there u have it

-------------------------------------------------------
/cast (Racial)
/cast Elemental Mastery
/use 13
/use 14
/use 10
/click MultiBarRightButton1
/click MultiBarLeftButton1
--------------------------------------------------------


PS: Sorry for the spelling mistakes, I made it in a hurry.

Is there an updated version to this, say if you have the flame shock prime glyph it makes flame shock last 50% longer?
