My 2 ISBoxer 2 Step Macro and Setup

[Aragent]

Added Lvl 80:
"Death Knights Blood"
"Priests Discipline"
"Warlocks Demonology"
"Warlocks Affliction"

Tweeked
"Shamans Enhancement"

Proposed
"Rogues Subtlety"
"Rogues Combat"

This should complete all Tank and Dps Rotations for level 80 in time to start working on 81-85 Level macros
Provided the level 80 macros are primarly ok with out needing major rework and only needing tweeks I will be adding the secound phase of the project and moving this into beta stage.

Is it really necessary to keep repeating the !also /use 13 & 14? In my similar 2-Step (now 3-Step) setup I've just added:

/use 13
/use 14

into the bottom of step 2, just before turning the error frame back on. I also use, at the beginning of Step 1:

!if (character in "Melee") /startattack

I personally find that fewer conditionals, and the combining of conditionals for similar classes, reduces the likelihood of making an error during later edits.

While I'm not certain of the value of a Tri-Step system, I started using it because I was unable to reliably get my Blood DK to cast Bone Shield and Horn of Winter or get my Boomkins to shift form quickly enough on non-instance trash. Tri-Step gives me another /castsequence and/or /cast fallthrough set to play with and, once everything is inside ISBoxer, maintaining multiple DPS steps becomes trivial.

For those interested the ISBoxer 38 Beta adds a new keystroke action called "Named WoW Macro" which can be used from a keymap. Individual macros work in the same way as ISB 37 but new "Macro Sets" and a centralised repository of friendly named macros make this stuff FAR easier to manage.

At this stage I was doing macros per Class/Tree builds,I plan to clean up the code in Beta
one of my concerns is with only using /use 13 /use 14 is when it gets added to each build but as you state, by placing it at tthe end should solve that.

and Isboxer 38 Named Wow Macro, I need to get with Lax and see exaclly how that s being handeled, (such as is it being handeled by Isboxer) if so probably modify the system to greatly utalise this new function

as Far as a Tri Step build yes tinkered with that my self, I am acually Testing a quad step build at moment,

Thank you Zorba The Greek:
For the Insite, I will look to in corperating this with cleaning up the code.

In the first proc post you have:

!if (character in "Death knights Undead") /castrandom Heart Strike,Death Strike

You mean Death knights Unholy

In post number 71 you have G arrot with an extra space under rogues subelty.

Thank you Sam

"Death Knights Unholy" Correct Ill make sure its corect

and Rogues Subelty I saw the G arrot as well but when I go in [Edit] it doesnt show the space not sure why its really showing with the space in the post However I will try and edit it out onemore time.

I apriciate you catching those.

PS: I changed the "Death Knights Undead" to Death Knights Unholy"
However in post 71 some how its adding a space in G arrot that it doesnt show when I edit.

It's a weird oddity with vBulletin [or maybe just these forums, Svpernova would be able to give you a clearer answer]. It came
to most people's attention when we used commas in our /click macros. Example:

/click MultiActionBarButton1 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I didn't put a single space in there, but the final post shows 2 [at least on my screen]. As to why this happens I'm not sure,
but maybe put a disclaimer at the beginning of your main post explaining that people should double check what they've
copied and pasted from your stuff.

Heart Strike, is the special ability granted Blood Death Knights.
So chances are, you meant Death Knights Blood, rather than Death Knights Undead.

""Warlocks Demonology"

I think there should be only one quote, my toons will say this part if I leave the 2 qoute in place

Correct Zonorf,

Should only be one " [quote]"

Consider that fixed thanks for the catch.
