DPS not increasing as I get new gear (macro help?)

[wakasm]

Are you using the 2-step method in your macros?

Good luck!

I am using the 2-step method. (and 80% of your macros!). And it has greatly helped. I am starting to think my issue was from not reforging ALL my gear. I feel kind of stupid for not thinking that through sooner. I quit at the end of BC before reforging was introduced and then started 5 boxing straight away a few months ago. (Thanks for that tip Khatovar).

I am going to go do 2 normal dungeons tonight and see how much of an increase it actually was and report back.

Are there any tools you guys use to track macro efficiency? i stare at all the macros posted and often can't piece together how you guys came up with the timing. I find recount not to be very helpful at the training dummy (unless I'm using it wrong... ) For instance, a way to see the order of how spells were cast or if there was any "Downtime" between spells when something should being cast?

So much math. I love it, but very overwhelming as I'm also playing 3 completely new classes to me. The macros are what completely confusing me at times as I see so many variations posted and when i google off this site, almost all are not written for multiboxing purposes.
