Mage Macro edit/fix

[samsamsam]

alright this is the typical "i win button macro" (though im arc/frost so it Frostbolt and not pyro) but i wanted to tweak it a bit but wasnt sure.

/cast Presence of Mind
/stopcasting
/cast Arcane Power
/stopcasting
/use Vengeance of the Illidari
/stopcasting
/cast Frostbolt

Now that macro works just fine, when i hit the button it poms, Ap, trinkets and start casting FB.

My question is is there a macro command that i could put in front of everything so it would ONLY do this macro when im NOT casting.

What i found i did a few times was i sheep, or when i get the jump i do AP manually, then start casting Frostbolt, then when i go to click this macro if i click it JUST a second to early it cancels my initial frostbolt and starts a new cast,...

So i dont think it should be to hard but i just need a command added like so that i dont cancel my first frostbolt..

/something to the extent of (If not casting)
/cast Presence of Mind
/stopcasting
/cast Arcane Power
/stopcasting
/use Vengeance of the Illidari
/stopcasting
/cast Frostbolt

i would really appreciate it, thank you in advanced :D

Don't think it's possible. You'll just have to time the button press a little bit better.

Try

/Stopmacro [Casting]
/cast Presence of Mind
/stopcasting
/cast Arcane Power
/stopcasting
/use Vengeance of the Illidari
/stopcasting
/cast Frostbolt

There is no option for casting - the option you need to use is

channelling <spell name>

However, there may only be one l

channeling <spell name>

Because in England we double the consonant when adding 'ing', whereas in the US they do not.

However, how you use it is something I am not sure of.

try

/stopmacro [channelling/channeling Frostbolt]
/cast Presence of Mind
/stopcasting
/cast Arcane Power
/stopcasting
/use Vengeance of the Illidari
/stopcasting
/cast Frostbolt

channeling and channeling:<spell name> will only work for channeling spells like blizzard.

I am not quite sure what will solve this for you. Would /castsequence [reset=??] work? How about a second macro?

[Dark Matter]

Spells like frost bolt take time to cast and, as I understand it from the US UI forum, any spell that takes time to cast is viewed as a channelled spell for the purposes of macros.


However, it wouldn't be the first time I got it wrong.

[samsamsam]

tried those doesnt seem to work...

tried /Stopmacro [Casting]

tried /stopmacro [channeling Frostbolt]

any more ideas?
