    I've got it working fine where all DK's peel towards the focus but haven't been able to get it so they take turns.

    Tried two ways so far.
    One 4 step keybind which does this for all 4 steps.
    target focus
    sends strangulate macro
    IWT's

    Figuring maybe this system was not IWTing or targeting the focus before trying to send the strang I changed to an 8 step keybind.

    Step 1
    target focus
    IWT
    Step 2 - do not pass for 4s
    strang macro
    repeat

    First DK works but subsequent DK's do not.

    RESOLVED. User error, I was clicking the do not pass, but forgot to click the for x seconds bit!
    I setup a system like this in the past, and found that it actually hurt more than it helped. The few seconds ( I was using 2-2.5sec, I think you 4s is too high) that dk goes off to Strang is a loss of dps. I do use round robin /cast [@focus] strangulate macros though. In most situations the amount of spinnning and mashing IWT I get my strangs off.

    Ya. I came to the same conclusion haha.

    I started my 5's yesterday and everything went swimmingly. Opened 10-0.

    Then I started running into double/trip healer teams. I hadn't yet setup any focus strang macro's since I was JUST doing arenas to get guild rep for BoA's.

    Went 5 and 20 over the next 3 hours I think.

    Today I made my strang macro and went 7-5 with 3 or 4 of those losses coming before the macro was working properly.

    What I've done is make a secondary DPS key which keeps my DPS spamming while also firing off strang every 3s.

    I'm debating setting up a double focus system with 2 DK's focusing 1 and 2 focusing another. Then setting up a second strangulate macro that will pass the first 2 steps immediately and then hold off on the last 2 for X seconds. Since we are all about killing fast and DR's on strang will render 4 on one guy pretty much pointless.

    Hi, I know you gave us how you set up your macros, but I'm not very good with setting up the macros, I was wondering if I could have the actual code you input to use the macros? Thanks

    I am super new(like installed ISboxer like 2 hours ago) was using keyclone before can someone give me a detailed explaination on how this rotation works or have a basic setup i can look at.

    essentially what i get is FTL DPS KEY X when pressed down does one part of the rotation then when released always spams the same spell then when pressed down it does the next one in the rotation?

    how do i set that up?

    So I set it up like in the video seems to be working ok my guys are only lvl 62 at the moment.

    seems like all they do is spam icy touch too much so i tried to make my bars similar to this but again im lvl 62 so what i ended up doing is making FTL DPS 1, 2, and 3 to press then making a copy of the FTL DPS 1, 2, and 3 key and setting them to release then mapping the keybinds to that
    so for FTL DPS 1, 2, and 3 they are set to IT, OB, and DS respectively

    any direction from here would be good

    Ualaa I just wanted to thank-you again for this.

    After getting my video feeds, click bars, named macros and key maps all set I couldn't be happier with the setup.

    You da man
