Question for aelli

[scottig]

Do you use blood fury on your alts em+ns+cl macro?

Thanks

i really dont think he does...no one wants a nasty MS debuff, even if it kills someone :P

[Oatboat]

yeah i wouldnt use that unless you were just going after a couple of guys and not a team that you were going to need healing.

TLDR: Yes, I use Blood Fury racial on my followers, my main does not.


When I first started Arenas, I used to use Blood Fury on all, healers complained so I took it off on all. At some point I put it back on but then took it off as it was causing problems.
Always wanting to produce as much damage as possible I simply put it back on for my followers but not on the main, since the main without a doubt is the one that is going to be targeted it isn't that bad. I also combine the Badge trinket that gives +1750 hp in the same macro giving me a boost in HP just in case they do get hit.
It has worked out quite well, as adding 3 blood fury's gives an additional 1500 damage or so on my kill combo.

thanks for the reply i also have the hp trinket in the macro. Great minds think alike. :P anyways I'll try it out

you mean on your alts you use:

/cast Nature's Swiftness
/cast Elemental Mastery
/cast Blood Rage
/use 13 [your +dmg burst trinket]
/use 14 [your +1750 hp trinket is]
/cast [target=focustarget] Chain Lighting

Does your main have the +1750 hp trinket? Do you use it reactively like a health potion?

I also use the 1750 hp trinket mixed in with my EM/NS/CL macro on my main. There might be better ways to configure it though but this method means less buttons for me.

The 1750 hp goes off when I use the kill macro, because thats when that battle is normally at its peak. And I want to be sure to be alive .
And this is the macro i use

/assist focus
/cast Elemental Mastery
/use Icon of the Silver Crescent
/cast Blood Fury
/use Battlemaster's Audacity
/cast Nature's Swiftness
/cast chain lightning

You guys have solved my trinket delimma. I had saved a little over 100 badges so far and was going to spend them on Resto shaman chest plates for my PVE adventures, but I'll put that off and spend it on PVP stuff. It makes perfect sense to put that in the kill macro. I've been thinking about taking the blood fury out but I still have problems leaving a sliver of life left after my burst so I wasn't ready to remove it. Both effects are 15s and you're right, executing a target is the pivitol point in a battle. I was actually drifting to the mindset that I'd put 1 burst trinket on everyone and 1 defensive trinket (hp or resil), but I think this might be more helpful.

Thanks so much!
