Hi,
I'm new at macros but i consider it very useful cause i'm shaman lv 49 and i've many casts. So this is my first macro but i can't get it work just how i want.
I want to say Mana break! cast Water Shield, Mana Spring totem and use a drink.
So i wrote this:
/say Mana Break!
/cast Water Shield
/cast Mana Spring Totem
/use Morning Glory Dew
But this just say, cast shield and use drink.I used castsequence reset=4 but it gives me same result.
Anyone can give me an advice ? It could be useful too a tooltip saying how many drinks left, but i tried without results. Thank in advance.
PS: I looked at forums and wiki. This is my last resource cause i don't wanna annoy ppl :P

Gee, think you can try to do more with one click? I recommend hitting it twice, once with a modifier, once not:
#Showtooltip
/cast Water Shield;Morning Glory Dew
/cast Mana Spring Totem
/stopmacro
/say Mana Break!
Haven't played shamans in a while, but IIRC, totems ARE on the GCD, which is why your first version won't work...the totem is triggering the cooldown and preventing you from eating.

Yes, that's true about totems and global cooldown. And i used your version and the tooltip now works great, thanks. But still don't cast the totem.
There's someway to make a lil break between casting Water Shield and Totem ?
That's why i tried castsequence without sucess.

And another thing, maybe i misunderstood about macros but i should expect when i use that macro without alt talk and with alt drink and cast.
But when i use it without modifiers it drinks and pressing alt cast water shield, can't cast totem cause isn't ready and stop drinking.
I'm reading more about macros cause it sounds very useful to me.

I'd suggest Jpong's second version, with the following afterward:
/stopmacro
/p Mana Break!
So the first time, hold down a mod to notify the party you're drinking, then just tap it twice more.

I'm in ur threads suggestin uncommon solutions:/castsequence Water Shield,Mana Spring Totem
/castsequence ,Morning Glory Dew

Hmn...I'm guessing the leading comma in the second castsequence gets interpreted as a cast sequence of:
1: Do nothing
2: Cast Morning Glory Dew.
?

Yep. At least it used to pre 3.1, but I doubt they changed/fixed it.
