Cataclysm Bear Tanking Macro(s) / Information

[Kvas]

Now obviously this is for single target TPS. AoE tanking is a bit different, and I really haven't come up with a solid macro for that since the best TPS is really going to be a lot of tab targeting. What I have so far is:
I haven't tested this very much, so you may not have much luck with it. The idea is to use this while tab targeting. The biggest issue I had in testing this was not having enough rage. I haven't been able to test this in real world heroics, so if you are able to, I'd welcome any suggestions. Like I said, I'm not currently boxing so if you guys have figured out something better, feel free to post away. i didn't see any 4.0.x bear stuff, so I figured I'd throw out what I've got so far.

Once you hit 81 and get Thrash, the best AoE tanking is simply; Swipe, Thrash, Mangle, <other>, rinse and repeat. Mangle is the best ability, but I find having 2 gcd's of AoE abilitys to front load AoE threat is helpful. If you can, precasting Thorns is obviously desirable.

#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=3 Swipe(Bear Form), Thrash(Bear Form), Mangle(Bear Form), Lacerate(Bear Form)
/cast maul

For single target, I don't see a big difference with the OP. In order to make the macro simpler, while sacrificing minimal threat, I noticed that mangle has a 6 second cooldown, which allows 3 gcd's between mangles. Between the first set of mangles, you do three lacerates and between the 2nd set of mangles, you do; pulverize, swipe, thrash.

#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=3 Mangle(Bear Form), Lacerate(Bear Form), Lacerate(Bear Form), Lacerate(Bear Form), Mangle(Bear Form), Pulverize(Bear Form), Swipe(Bear Form), Thrash(Bear Form)
/cast maul

I don't have Faerie Fire in there as I usually pull with that. If you wanted FF in the above macro I'd basically double the length and alternate FF with Thrash in the final free GCD:

#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=3 Mangle(Bear Form), Lacerate(Bear Form), Lacerate(Bear Form), Lacerate(Bear Form), Mangle(Bear Form), Pulverize(Bear Form), Swipe(Bear Form), Faerie Fire(Bear Form), Mangle(Bear Form), Lacerate(Bear Form), Lacerate(Bear Form), Lacerate(Bear Form), Mangle(Bear Form), Pulverize(Bear Form), Swipe(Bear Form), Thrash(Bear Form)
/cast maul
