macros for blacksoul

yo! here are some of the macros i use on pappas. you'll notice most macros start with /stopcasting. Adding this in will cause you to interrupt any spell that is currently being cast, so it may take some getting used to. The idea behind using /stopcasting is that you can shave off .25 to .5 seconds of cast time due to lag if you use it in conjunction with a castbar like quartz .

You'll also notice that i like to add /use 14 before any dps spell. This causes my trinket to pop as soon as it becomes available. If the trinket is on CD and error message sayin the item isn't ready will display. Adding /script UIErrorsFrame:Clear() to the macro causes this not to display, but you'll still hear the annoying audio. This addon http://wow.curse.com/downloads/details/6257/ will get rid of the audio.

Dot macro #1. This macro assumes you have your passive trinket in slot 13 and a trinket you can pop in slot 14. When used, it will pop your trinket and instantly start casting Unstable Affliction. The next time it's used on the same target it will cast Immolate. This is a cast sequence macro, meaning that if you switch targets before you've made it through all the spells in the sequence, you'll start at the beginning of the sequence with the new target and if you switch back to the first target, you'll be right back in the sequence where you left off.

/stopcasting
/use 14
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/castsequence [nomodifier] reset=target/combat Unstable Affliction,Immolate

Dot macro #2. Similar to dot macro 1, this macro pops your trinket and cast corruption the first time it's used and casts siphon life the next time it's used on the same target. The reason these dots aren't part of dot macro #1 is that they are instant casts which are nice to have on a independent rotation for fights where you have to move a lot.


/stopcasting
/use 14
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/castsequence [nomodifier] reset=target/combat Corruption,siphon life


Shadow Bolt macro: like the others, pop trinket if available and then cast shadowbolt. this macro really gets a boost when used with quartz.

/stopcasting
/use 14
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/cast shadow bolt


Dark pact/life tap. This will cause you to use Dark Pact if you have an Imp out and will automatically life tap if you don't. If you have an imp out and want to life tap, hold shift and use this macro.

/cast [nomodifier,pet:imp] Dark Pact; Life Tap
/cast [modifier:SHIFT] Life Tap

Drain Life / Soul macro. even if you don't use quartz, stopcasting comes in handy on this macro since usually when you're breaking out drain life or drain soul, you want it to interrupt your current cast if you have one. Normal use will cast drain soul, holding down shift and using will cast drain life.

/stopcasting
/cast [nomodifier] drain soul
/cast [modifier:shift] drain life

Banish Macro to allow you to banish a target and then rebanish the target without having to retarget it. This will allow you to banish moon, switch to skull for dps and then rebanish moon while still targeting skull. It also allows you to cash banish rank 1 if you hold the shift key down.

/stopcasting
/clearfocus [modifier:alt]
/focus [target=focus,noexists]; [target=focus,dead]
/clearfocus [target=focus,help]
/cast [nomodifier,target=focus,harm] banish
/cast [modifier:shift,target=focus,harm] banish (Rank 1))


Succy macro. Similar to banish, this allows you to easily resedduce without having to retarget.

#showtooltip
/clearfocus [modifier:alt]
/focus [target=focus,noexists]; [target=focus,dead]
/clearfocus [target=focus,help]
/petstay
/petfollow
/cast [pet:succubus,target=focus,exists,harm] Seduction; Seduction
