Macros, i need help!

[DarkoK3]

Hello all, i have holy pala and want to use some macros to make my heal better.

I tried to use general macros to use trinkets with spells, and 2 spells, but it just wont work.

Here are few examples:

1.) Holy Light + both trinkets
#showtooltip Holy Light
/use Core of Ripeness (trinket)
/cast Holy Light

This wont work, i tried to write /use 13 for trinket, wont work, only cast Holy Light.

2.)
#showtooltip Word Of Glory
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/cast Word of Glory
/script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
/cast Holy Radiance

This wont cast Word of Glory when i have Holy Power.

3.)
#showtooltip Divine Light
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/cast [help] Divine Favor
/script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
/cast Divine Light

This wont cast Divine Favor, it casts only Divine Light.

I also tried to use macros without these scripts, /script UIErrorsFrame:Hide(), /console Sound_EnableSFX 0 and /console Sound_EnableSFX 1, those are just some to remove those sounds and messages that alert you that spell is on cd.

Anyone can help with these examples?

Thank you!

1.) trick to 'cooldown casting' is to spam the macro when the first ability's cast time is nearing 100% - I use it on my priest's Prayer of Healing + Circle of Healing

2.) not an expert in this, but the error you're hiding might have a hint on how to make it work, my suggestion is don't put an ability that depends on something (holy power or cooldown) in front of a default ability, rather flip them around

3.) try /cast [target,help,nodead] or similar, can't figure out another reason it would skip the cast

Well, the first macro is not solved, it wont cast trinkets no matter what i do, in which order or whether i spam when HL gets near 100% cast or not.
Dont have a clue why it wont cast that trinket.

Second one is solved partially, it does cast Word of Glory when i spam macro when casting time of Holy Radiance is near 100%, but it wont cast Word of Glory when i use macro in Heal Bot, clicking right click on target for example, no matter if i put it first, second, or without those scripts that remove notifications. Looks like i cant use that kind of spells in macros when using it in Heal Bot.

Third one is solved!!! :D

Thank you Islingr for help!

Anyone else have any ideas that might help?

well there's yer problem... HealBot... I currently use it only on 2 encounters: Zon'ozz and Argaloth, where quick dispels are required, the rest of my healing goes through my default* raidframes and macros

1.) you did call the use trinket as /use 13 right? it doesn't do trinketname, only slot it's in (also make sure 13 really is the slot you have your trinket in)

2.) as for it not working on a click... you can bind WoG to any click or key+click in HealBot so I don't really see why you would NEED a macro for it... a possible fix for it I suppose would be to spam-click... in other words spam it

I wouldnt put this trinket in a macro with Holy Light, cause Holy Light isnt a spell that u only use when u are oom, u also use it to outheal some low dmg, to save mana and since it gives u spirit, put it together with Divine Plea or even better would be, to just bind the trinket, imagine u are almost oom, but u have to burst heal someone and cant use Devine Plea because of the healing reduction.

good thought... I've never had a core of ripeness or bothered to check what its use is as he asked for help with the macro, not with "how to heal"... if it's a spirit use then you shouldn't even macro it with anything, just make a macro to help in casting it when your mana pool is low (or shaman drops mana tide)

only bad players stack trinkets with spells and multiple non gcd spells together

bind everything and gt gd

Also you use Holy Light as a 2 person heal, since Beacon of Light transfers 100% of a HL heal to its target.

If you want to bind COR to something... use Divine Plea as it's your Mana skill anyway.

In which case your macro is:
#showtooltip
/cast Divine Plea
/use Core of Ripeness

only bad players stack trinkets with spells and multiple non gcd spells together

bind everything and gt gd

Basically this... having full control over everything, paying attention, gives maximum effectiveness.

p.s all your macros are written wrong, and two are actually impossible macros since they use two abilities that are on GCD.
I can fix them all though but I need you to understand that binding COR to HL is stupid.

one of my "too bored to bother" macros aka 1buttonmashing healing looks like this:

#showtooltip
/cast Prayer of Healing
/cast [@focus] Circle of Healing
/cast [@focus] Prayer of Mending

and yes it fully works, all I do is spam it and all abilities cast after I set focus on the tank... no need to keep all 3 in separate slots or only paste a gcd and a non-gcd together
it just takes, as I said before, some spamming
