    One of my favourite macros:

    /cleartarget [target=target,dead]
    /clearfocus [target=focus,dead]
    /target focus
    /cleartarget [target=focus,noexists]
    /targetlasttarget
    /focus target
    /targetlasttarget

    Makes your focus and target switch places.

    The only reason that would work is if Pyroblast! is off the gcd. Now you know the reason if it should work. You can put as many abilities that does not activate the gcd and one ability that will into one macro.

    Personally I wouldn't use it because, like you said, it's inconsistant. It's easier to watch for the proc through the default ui or poweraura and manually fire the pryo. A studdering macro is a dps loss.

    That is just not good enough. Just tested it myself, and ye SOMETIMES it works, but MOST of the times it doesnt.

    I've tested this a lot and it works most of the time. I'd say 90% and haven't had it fail when spamming the key. I see no downside to the macro as a back up as it will grab all those last second proc's for you.

    Try mashing the button it wont miss a single one. Just pretend you're playing arcane again.

    Oh does it now? I thank you very much sir. It always annoyed me I had to mouseover my target to focus etc (yea, I use mouseover to focus).

    Same macro. It just uses less characters.

    Code:
    /cleartarget [@target,dead]
    /clearfocus [@focus,dead]
    /target focus
    /cleartarget [@focus,noexists]
    /targetlasttarget
    /focus target
    /targetlasttarget

  7. #367
    #showtooltip Counterspell
    /stopcasting
    /cast [target=focus,harm][target=target] Counterspell

    counter spell on your focus , if not then on current target

    ============================================================

    /script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()
    /target [dead][help][noharm]focus ; target
    #showtooltip Arcane Blast
    /cast Presence of Mind
    /cast Arcane Blast
    /script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
    /script UIErrorsFrame:Show()

    PoM + AB with auto return to focus if your current target is dead

    ============================================================

    #showtooltip Remove Curse
    /cast [target=mouseover,help] [target=player] Remove Curse

    on mouse over , or self remove curse

    Correct but missing a few more. The weakness of this is if you have item that procs haste the cast time of FB changes so the number of Fireball also needs to change

    Example 2005 haste can do 5x FB before refreshing LB
    1505 haste can do 4x FB before refreshng LB
    Our Bis Trink (4.3) itself procs haste. 1505+tringket=5x FB, while 2005+trink proc= 6x FB

    /castsequence reset=target Living Bomb,Fireball,Fireball,Fireball,Fireball
    /castsequence [mod:shift]Pyroblast;reset=60 Flame Orb, Mirror Image
    /cast [mod:ctrl] Combustion
    /cast [mod:alt] Fireball

    Depending on your haste you change the numbers of FB you use. The macro has 4x FB. You add more FB by pressing alt+macro. I recomend to use it Before you start the macros sequence to prevent using LB before it explode. Using ctrl+macro will use Combustion. Using shift+macro will hardcast pyro. The macro uses orb and Mirror image off cd. You can use Combustion OFF cd by deleting it and writing it on the 2nd castsequence:
    /castsequence [mod:shift]Pyroblast;reset=60 Flame Orb,Combustion, Mirror Image
    and place Managem on ctrl BUT we mages like to use it with big ignites so I separated it.

    Running around macro ^,..,^

    #showtooltip
    /cast [mod] Blastwave; Scorch
    /cast Pyroblast!

    Heres is a macro that will auto cast pyro procs /cast Pyroblst! but sadly it doesnt work on the castsequence
    So I recomend this instead. I dont like castsequence on my mage anyway. This one is simple and more accurate than the sequence, you just need to keybind the orb and miror image to make it easier.

    #showtooltip
    /cast [mod] Pyroblast; Fireball
    /cast Pyroblast!

    and also:

    #showtooltip
    /cast [mod] Combustion; Livingbomb
    /cast Pyroblast!

    I actualy dont use the sequence cause i dont like it LoL I divided mine and placed Managem on all of them to make sure I use it off cd (without using it at full mana). I dont like specific modifier. I just use [mod] meaning any will do on matter what I press.

    My Fave Macro:
    Does 3 Important skills, modifier base on what I personality like to use.
    #showtooltip [nopet] Summon Water Elemental; [nomod] Freeze; [modifier] Frost Nova
    /cast [nopet][target=pet, dead] Summon Water Elemental; Freeze
    /cast [modifier] Frost Nova

    CC macro: It will use CC on your curent target, or if you use modifier it will use it on your focus. Best used on 2s arena ^,..,^. I use 2 of this, the other uses polymorph
    #showtooltip Counterspell
    /stopcasting
    /cast [modifier, target=focus] Counterspell
    /cast [nomod] Counterspell

    Believe it or not this does Fit and will end up at 247/255
    #showtooltip
    /stopcasting
    /castrandom [modifier, target=focus] Polymorph,Polymorph(Rabbit),Polymorph(Pig),Polymorph(Turtle),Polymorph(Black Cat)
    /castrandom [nomod] Polymorph,Polymorph(Rabbit),Polymorph(Pig),Polymorph(Turtle),Polymorph(Black Cat)

    You can also use this with dots. Since you can cast dots even if there behind as long as there on your LoS. Makes Multidoting easier specialy on 2s arena.

    This is my Iceblock macro

    Code:
    #showtooltip Ice Block
    /stopcasting
    /cast Ice Block
    /cancelaura Ice Block
    It let's you hit the button once to enter your ice block; and hit the button again to cancel the aura so you do not have to sit in the ice block for the entire duration.

    Shiv and throw go into the same macro, i use it all the time, not sure if throw is GCD though.

    Activate just Throw. If most of the buttons dim briefly, it's on the gcd. If nothing else dim except throw, then it's not on the gcd.

    I prefer;
    Code:
    #showtooltip
    /cast !Ice Block
    So I can spam it (PvP mostly) without it canceling my block when I panicspam.

    Then to get out;
    Code:
    #showtooltip Ice Lance
    /cancelaura Ice Block
    /cast Ice Lance
    Change Ice Lance to fireball living bomb or whatever you want for pve usage.

    I see no effect. ~55k both with and without.

    I'm horrible with makin macros, but I'm looking for one that allows me to cast LB on my focus target. Like on madness without having to actually switch targets. If somebody could show me that macro i'd appreciate it. Thanks.
