    Feral 4P T13 charge macro

    Hello,


    since i got my 4P T13 i am having problems with my charge macro to work.
    I use this "#showtootip
    /castsequence reset=9 Feral Charge(Cat Form), Ravage"

    When the fight starts i charge do my rotation, use ravage after that i use tigers fury and then use ravage again. The problem is that sometimes after tigers fury it doesnt work and i have to click ravage with my mouse, what is wrong with the macro that it sometimes works and sometimes it doesnt???

    I've never found castsequence macros to be reliable - I use one for easymode bear aoe (thrash, swipe x2, reset =6) and it sometimes doesn't reset on time.

    Since feral charge is off the gcd, you can just do

    /cast feral charge(cat form)
    /cast ravage

    It'll try to do both to your target; the only downside is that the #showtooltip won't update to whichever ability is actually going to work. If you're in melee range, the charge won't work so it'll just ravage, if you have stampede up from either a previous charge or TF.

    Personally I prefer to save some action bar space and use the same macro for cat and bear charge and ravage:
    /cast [form:1] Feral Charge(Bear Form); [form:3] Feral Charge(Cat Form)
    /cast [stance:3] Ravage

    Hope that helps.

    Only way for it to work i think is like this
    #showtootip
    /castsequence reset=9 Feral Charge(Cat Form), Ravage!
    /cast Ravage!

    Will still Ravage when you use Tiger's Fury but Stampede will not change 2nd time, its just something you have to keep in mind

    Also pretty sure cast sequence macro ONLY works when you use all spells, if you on the boss and press Tigers Fury, you not exactly using charge, Stampede procs but Charge not used.

    I would suggest

    /castsequence reset=10 Feral Charge(Cat Form), Ravage
    /cast [mod:ctrl] Ravage

    I am not certain if the macro provided by shift would work all the time.

    /castsequence will keep trying to use the next spell in the list until it succeeds(a miss is still a successfull use) or the reset criteria are fulfilled. So it keeps trying to use Feral Charge, which obviously won't work.
    I've never found castsequence macros to be reliable - I use one for easymode bear aoe (thrash, swipe x2, reset =6) and it sometimes doesn't reset on time.
    The time is counted from last button press. So if you Thrash and Swipe once, it won't reset until 1 GCD after Thrash goes of CD.

    well a few sugestions have allrdy been posted but to tell you why it dosen't work.

    /castsequence reset=9 <--- this means that it will cast the first spell and then any following after that BUT! if your sequence ends it will not jump back to start before 9 seconds, the "reset=9" means your macro resets after 9 seconds wich I asume is the cooldown on leap

    No. It will reset when it reaches the end of the sequence or if 9 seconds elapse after you last pressed the button.
    That means that if you use the macro again 8 seconds after the last use, it will not reset for another 9 seconds even if it failed to work unless you finish the sequence.

    That's also why the macro didn't work. He was trying to cast Feral Charge in melee range.
