Mercurio's Cataclysm Macros at 85

[Lyonheart]

I seem to recall that Blizzard did some sort of fix regarding morphing spells, eg. Moonfire <> Sunfire and the various Holy Words so they would behave correctly for macros. However, I don't remember exactly what it is that they fixed. Would we be able to take the Sunfire talent in light of this fix?

I remember reading about that as well. I cant seem to find the info though. That would really help though!

I have tested it, and the results are very strange. Blizzard did indeed "fix" the use of morphing spells in macros. But not quite well enough.

Using a castsequence with Moonfire in it, and taking the Sunfire talent:

If you're in a solar eclipse, it will follow the castsequence as usual and will successfully cast Sunfire. However, the sequence will become "stuck" on Sunfire forever and that druid will just keep casting it over and over, ignoring anything else in the castsequence.

In light of this, I still take the Sunfire talent, but I manage moonkin dots manually and use castsequence only for Wrath & Starfire.

Strangely enough, a simple castsequence of just:

#showtooltip
/castsequence Moonfire, Insect Swarm

works perfectly (casts Sunfire in solar eclipse, moonfire otherwise) and does not get stuck. I simply haven't been able to isolate what is causing the other castsequence to hang (using Mercurio's Balance DPS macro) yet this simple one works correctly. Can anyone do some additional testing?
