Prot Pally rotation 4.0

[Noids]

@Mickathick.

I know the passive regen is gone but aren't you loving the Word of glory heals? Having a 10k insta heal that shields instead of overhealing seems awesome. I guess the area where WoG falls down is that a 10k heal is worth 5k damage agro but without the bonus to holy from righteous fury. It would be nice if they could make WoG only benefit from RF.

So. After some testing, I can keep up a pretty solid AoE rotation with the following macro:



Now, here's where it gets interesting. Obviously, the castsequence macro system is broken as hell right now. In addition to falling through a castsequence to longer-cooldown abilities, the following macro:



will NEVER cast two hammers in a row, despite what the macro says.

Now I've used your macro:

/castsequence reset=combat hammer of the righteous, judgement, hammer of the righteous, word of glory
/cast avenger's shield
/cast holy wrath

although I added a Crusader strike in there to get hp up to 3 everytime for WoG....I never see the AS or HW cast.
How'd you get it to work? I'm thinking just making a second macro with AS, HW.

Lemme post the entire macro just for clarity:

/assist focus

/stopmacro [noharm] [dead]

/console Sound_EnableSFX 0


/use 13
/use 14

/cast hand of reckoning

/castsequence reset=combat hammer of the righteous, judgement, hammer of the righteous, word of glory
/cast avenger's shield
/cast holy wrath


/startattack

/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

IF your AS/HW aren't casting, check for typos. I have no idea why they wouldn't.

Thanks man, I'll try it again, but I copy/pasted, shouldn't get any typos, spacing w/ a "/" maybe idk, I'll try the full macro see what happens.

Yeah idk, even with the full macro you posted, I can't get AS or HW to go off.

Here's what I had been trying to use.....maybe you'll see something I'm not, but the spelling and spacing seem fine:


/castsequence reset=combat hammer of the righteous, judgement, hammer of the righteous, Crusader strike, word of glory
/cast avenger's shield
/cast holy wrath


Everything but the 2 lines for /cast go off fine/smooth.

I tested this for you. That Macro actually does work but you have to press it really fast for AW and HW Just CAPITALIZE the spells like individual spells and it will be normal.

Here's mine with Super Duper Macro. All the Cooldowns are filled in. It starts with one HP SotR just to get Holy Shield up.

/cast Consecration

Retribution
AoE - The last CS and Judgement has a little CD when they come up. The first CS and Judgement will also has a little CD when it loops back the second time. Its the best i can do to fill in all the CDs. Unless you want to use Exorism, but that's mana intensive. Manually use Consecration once per pull.

Protection Rotation. Works on mobs and bosses. Still workin on a Ret rotation, I'll post it when I can setting on one.


Q Button:
AS macro
/cast [@mouseover] Avenger's Shield (will be reset by the time it reaches this in the following macro, big help with pulling casters in)

E Button:
Spam
/startattack
/Click ActionButton8
/Click ActionButton9
/Click ActionButton10

ActionButton8:
DPS macro
/castsequence reset=5 Hammer of the Righteous,Judgement,Hammer of the Righteous,Holy Wrath,Hammer of the Righteous,Shield of the Righteous,Hammer of the Righteous,Judgement,Hammer of the Righteous,Avenger's Shield,Crusader Strike,Shield of the Righteous

ActionButton9:
Divine Protection spell only, no macro. Shares no cooldown with dps macro.

ActionButton10:
Consecration spell, no macro. Shares global cooldown with dps macro, so it'll this when it can inbetween the castsequence rotation.

10 can be swapped out with Hammer of Wrath as it will do the same action when it's able to cast. Didn't seem to work with putting HoW after or before Consecration so it's on it's own hotkey as an [@mouseover] macro too

Also check my armory if you want for spec, stats are still messed up on there. Don't think they implemented the Mastery stat into the site yet. I've got it on all my gear now, so my avoidance is up to 81.18 with just Kings up and 80.87 with Might. I use the following script to find out:

/script DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("Need 102.4 combat table coverage. Currently at: "..string.format("%.2f", GetDodgeChance()+GetBlockChance()+GetParryChance() +5))


Found out HoR no longer causes damage, just taunts, so it's no longer a good spell for pulling at the start.

I use a smilar rotation with no crusader strike in it and had no problems with aggro whatsoever. It works for both single target and Aoe situations.

/castsequence reset=10 Avenger's Shield, Consecration

Is my Actionbutton1 macro. I use it only for pulling. First press pulls the mobs, second press is done when all of the mobs are about to come close. Sometimes i may need to switch to normal tanking rotation before consecration with heavy caster groups in order to group them together using the racial ability like the ones in FoS. This short rotation for pulling enables great flexibility when in those situations.

Another note is that; i never start dps before Holy Wrath whether it is a single or an aoe fight. This effects the numbers on the meters though but a smooth run is more important than big numbers on the meters.
