How are you using this information?

Post by Fenz »

Especially looking for WL macro's but al classes could help each other here :D

Found this for WL's in the thread:

Q u o t e:

Ok, thanks to Astryl on the UI forum, it looks like the Amplify Curse, Fel Domination and probably the ToEP macros can be updated so they don't require pressing twice.

These are untested, but here we go:


Amplify Curse if it's up (check the macro at the bottom to find the ID in your spellbook and change 16 to whatever location you have), then immediately also cast the highest rank of Curse of Agony.

/script local e, f, g = GetSpellCooldown(16, SpellBookFrame.bookType); if (f <= 0) then CastSpellByName("Amplify Curse"); SpellStopCasting();end; CastSpellByName("Curse of Agony");



First press Sac a voidwalker (only if it's up), second press activate Fel Domination if it's up and then summon a voidwalker (find Fel Dom in your spellbook and replace the 16 with the correct ID - front page for how to do it):

/script local a=CastSpellByName;local e,f,g=GetSpellCooldown(16, SpellBookFrame.bookType);if UnitCreatureFamily("pet") == "Voidwalker" then CastPetAction(5); elseif f<=0 then a("Fel Domination");SpellStopCasting();end; a("Summon Voidwalker");


ToEP and Shadowbolt (assumes lower trinket slot - use Trinket0Slot if it's in the upper). Will always activate if your target is a player, and if it's not a player and it's health is above 30%:

/script local a=GetInventorySlotInfo("Trinket1Slot");local b,c=GetInventoryItemCooldown("player",a);if c <= 0 and (UnitHealth("target") > 30 or UnitIsPlayer("target")) then UseInventoryItem(a);SpellStopCasting();end CastSpellByName("Shadow Bolt");


How to find the location of Fel Domination or Amplify Curse etc:


/script for id = 1, 180, 1 do local spellName, subSpellName = GetSpellName(id, SpellBookFrame.bookType);if spellName and string.find(spellName, "Fel Domination", 1, true) then ChatFrame1:AddMessage("ID is "..id, 1.0, 1.0, 0.5); end; end;


Change "Fel Domination" to "Amplify Curse" if that's what you are looking for. Use this ID in GetSpellCooldown instead of 16 that I use in the examples.

Just respecced 31/3/17

ive just need to have dots a while.

dont know if your super macros does anything more than my simple

/cast Amplify Curse
/script SpellStopCasting()
/cast Curse of Agony

since it picks highest rank CoA

and btw, must say that i love my new 3 dots and the shadowtrance 8)


**********

corruption 666*1.1=733 (+300 something damage) 1033
CoA 1107*1.1=1217 (+300 something damage) 1517
Siphon 450*1.1=495 (+300 something damage) 795

=3345

and once every 3mins 1517 CoA gets 2126

just had to do some calcs 8)

3 poins into? I think I am gonna stick with SL for now, I like the survivability of it + I have the 3 dots (corruption does most of my damage in AV).

I like the demonology tree too much to leave it but I might replace SL with Ruin someday because burst damage is still king in 1-1 & group PvP. This will probably only happen if they change CoA from a spell to a dot because I need something to keep stealthers from restealthing 8)

PS can't wait to test that ToEP/Shadowbolt macro. I hope it works because I often forget to use my ToEP.

dunno, have you tried the other macro's, because afaik it shouldn't be possible to do multiple things ( esp multiple spells ) with one button press.
i would assume that if it's possible now that it might be fixed soon.
ohhhh, clicky!

Slouken posted in that thread, it is allowed because it only works for a few spells per class. Saw an insta pyroblast macro in there somewhere :shock:

i see

well, insta pyroblast works because PoM does not trigger a global cooldown, so..

figure out if it's the same for CoS then :P

My macros include remove curse and lazy "cast on self" macros:

/target Braidwood
/cast myspell (shift click from spellbook most reliable method)
/script TargetLastEnemy();

Which I use for remove curse, fire ward, frost ward, mana shield, mage armour, etc.

I also have heard you can use the /script StopSpellCasting()

to make PoM instant, but as I use it with different spells depending on the situation (e.g. sheep, pyro, frostbolt, even flamestrike in pvp) I'm considering whether to clog my UI with 2 or 3 additional macros. At the moment, I simply nestle the PoM type spells around the PoM button, so it is hardly a mouse move, even if it is 2 clicks.

I also use sheep macros to tell the party what is going on *but now use "polyhelper" mod.

Finally, I use macros for commonly said phrases: "drinking" "open trade window for water" "omfg noob why did you do that? or is that a stupid question"

While I'm at it... some ninja-ed macros from other guilds:

Always wondered when i look at peoples screenies, what those macros do that i see. Was wondering if we could put together a list of what people to use make the life of a mage that bit easier. So if you know of any useful mage macros, please feel free to post here and hopefully we can get a nice list together.

Would also like some funny ones aswell, will list one that i use below and you would be suprised how many people dont bug you anymore.

I will edit my post from time to time and add to this post to stop people having to scroll through page after page !!!

---
Description: Use as a normal spell key-binding, except if you gain Clearcasting before you cast it it will cast Arcane Missles instead.

Example:
/script local q; local t;for i=0,15,1 do t=GetPlayerBuffTexture(i); if (t and string.find(t, "ManaBurn")) then q=1; break; end; end; if(q ~= nil) then CastSpellByName("Arcane Missiles(Rank 7)") else CastSpellByName("Scorch(Rank 7)"); end;
