Is there a way to set up a macro where it will prioritise one marked add, then another and then back to the boss etc (i.e. attack skull target, then cross, then square, then back to boss when it recognises no adds are alive)? If so, can it be attached to something like LB and is this something you would recommend?
Secondly, for sometime I've noticed that my PE/FE isn't attacking unless I tell it to; I thought it might just be a change to PE but the other ele shammies in the guild are not complaining of the same thing. I've tried summoning it and checking each ability, to see if it's somehow had it's "attack" turned off, and it appears - unlike what it used to be, or at least, what I think it used to be - that it is not set to just "attack" without me telling it to (i.e. I used to just stick FS on a target and as soon as I did that, the PE/FE would attack; now it won't do that and I have to order it to attack). Am I missing something? Have I accidentally altered something and haven't realised I've done it? Or has this just changed and I've missed it? Can anyone make any useful suggestions for macroing the attack (if indeed, that's what I'm going to have to do)? I am currently binding /petattack to a keybind, but I'd prefer to be using an ability and just having it attack rather than having to remember to tell it to attack (it can get hectic on something like HC Tortos and if I "switch off" for a few secs, I can be losing dps on the adds because the PE/FE is just stood there doing nothing).
Any general recommendations for whirl turtles overall that might be worth mentioning for extra dmg? How do you target the crystals/what attack do you use? I am currently using FS as I couldn't get a macro to work for UE.
Lastly, any other macro's overall that you think are useful and will aid with higher dps for ele spec? I've heard making a macro to bind SS with LvB is a good one but I'm not sure how to do it, nor whether it's actually beneficial to be using it immediately off CD rather than waiting for other buffs to line up with it; thoughts?
Thanks in advance; much appreciated.
