Creative Macro Help -- post 3.0

Been thinking about creating a spell rotation for shammy heals that will be just super !!! Any macro geniuses out there?
So I want to incorporate,....
Tidal Force
Riptide
Chain Heal
,.... into one macro using the "mouse over",.... so would this work ??
#showtooltip Chain Heal
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/use 13
/use 14
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
/cast [target=mouseover] Tidal Force, Riptide, Chain Heal
I'm at work of course and can't test it :(


I figured it wouldn't be, but
Fjork — Tue, 10/21/2008 - 06:37I figured it wouldn't be, but would the macro I drew up work to automatically cast flash heal on myself on keypress, provided the mobs were attacking me?
Also, has anyone else had their macros disappear after logging out? I had to recreate my crusader's strike macro four times last night. I'd say I had to recreate my Flash of Light macro, but I never got it to work.........
:-)
Um, since this is
Fjork — Mon, 10/20/2008 - 11:26Um, since this is here.......
I'm trying to simplify the AOE grinding on my ret pally (long story short, each crit is a free flash heal. Each divine storm is nearly guranteed a crit. Retadins can take on 5-12 mobs at a time pre-70 now. Better than protadins)
One 'issue' I've been having is the fact that when my target dies, wow no longer auto-attacks the next target. It just hasn't been working. So the two macro's I'd like to setup is one: To autoattack with my crusader strike button, and two: to auto-cast flash of light on button press (no more press2, pressF1)
Would these be correct?
#showtooltip Crusader Strike
/cast Crusader Strike
/startattack
#show Flash of Light
/cast [modifier:alt,target=player] Flash of Light
/cast [help,target=target] Flash of Light
/cast [help,nodead,nomodifier:alt,target=targettarget,help,nodead] Flash of Light
Since the mobs will always be targeting me, I 'think' that'll work........ I haven't found a way yet to get the macro to activate itself whenever I receive the "Art of War" debuff after a crit. Now wouldn't THAT rock..... :D Having it this way will let me assist/ease some of the healers during 5mans, heroics, and raids without having to have a different macro. Since Flash of Light is free with every crit, and I never had to deal with mana issues anywayz, might as well spread the love.
not possible, as it counts as

Also, a thought just
lesda — Mon, 10/20/2008 - 11:08Also, a thought just occurred,... since one of the spells has a 3 min cooldown (can't remember which),... that this might be a better way to go,... (and actually the other is 6 sec).
#showtooltip Chain Heal
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/use 13
/use 14
/cast [target=mouseover] Tidal Force
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
/castsequence [target=mouseover] Riptide, Chain Heal
Thoughts?
Couldn't get around the 3 min
lesda — Tue, 10/21/2008 - 13:14Couldn't get around the 3 min CD,...
Macro looks like this now,... still ok.
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/use 13
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
/castsequence [target=mouseover] Riptide, Chain Heal
I throw this in every 3 or 4 heals i cast -- works great !!!
You don't need to target
saedo — Mon, 10/20/2008 - 11:08You don't need to target mouseover your CDs.
so just a /cast Tidal Force
Unless it does need a target?
Saves me a click -- as I'm
lesda — Mon, 10/20/2008 - 11:23Saves me a click -- as I'm running my mouse over the Grid,....
Makes a difference sometimes -- when the fight and healing gets intense :)
/castsequence instead of
saedo — Mon, 10/20/2008 - 10:06/castsequence instead of /cast
Thanks -- I'll give it a shot
