Arcane Lazy Macro – 4.3

[LuisKeymaster]

Hello everyone, I know that arcane mages are not that popular, but if you got some friends that are stubborn and would not like to try other specs, here is a lazy macro for them. Basically it consists of a spammable spell, with a rotation in cooldowns and a modifier when decide to do Arcane Barrage Arcane Missiles.

Do you have T13 4 piece bonus? If you do click here for a workaround.

/castsequence [mod]Arcane Missiles;Arcane Blast
/castsequence reset=120 Mana Gem,Presence of Mind,Arcane Power
/castsequence reset=180 Mirror Image,Flame Orb,Flame Orb,Flame Orb
/use 13
/use 14

Hello,

First, thank you for you hard work.
I tested your macro for shasow priest and warlock, they worked fine.
But your macro for arcane mage doesn’t work properly, the following spells are not used : Mana Gem,Presence of Mind,Missiles and Arcane Blast.
Another exemple, your macri isn’t working well is the icon doesn’t change just like it does with warloack macro.

Nevermind, it finally works

I’m glad you got it working. Did you had to do anything to make it work properly?

i was wondering the same thing cuase im currently un abl to use presecne of mind and arcane power

[LuisKeymaster]

Hello Titusmarshall, make sure you have a Mana Gem in your bag.

The sequence uses mana gem at the beginning to benefit from the extra spell power from the talents.

I love this macro and it works well; however, now with the mage T13 4 piece bonus, arcane power cool down is now at 37.5 sec, is there a way to have this macro take in account for that, or just remove it from the macro all together?

[LuisKeymaster]

Hello Yockster, you can remove it for now if you can remember to use it whenever is up. Unfortunately my mage does not have this kinda gear but I know a few people that does and they might let me play them so I can try to make it fit with the T13 bonuses.

If I don’t get to test it with the right gear I still can try to calculate timing and people can provide feedback to see if it works.

[LuisKeymaster]

Yockster if my calculations are right, you should be able to cast it 3 times before going back to the normal cycle.

On this case with people having this kind of bonus have to modify the second castsequence line to this:

/castsequence reset=120 Mana Gem,Presence of Mind,Arcane Power,Arcane Power,Arcane Power

This should take care of that gap you were experiencing before.

Hiya! I love the idea behind this… Can I ask, why not just format it like this:

/cast Presence of Mind
/cast Arcane Power
/castsequence [mod]Arcane Missiles;Arcane Blast
/castsequence reset=120 Mana Gem
/castsequence reset=180 Mirror Image,Flame Orb,Flame Orb,Flame Orb
/use 13
/use 14

Also, I’m noticing that sometimes neither mirror image or flame orb will fire, even though they have both completed CD. Any thoughts? Thank you!
