Simple Frost Rotation Macros for AoE and Single Target combat

Death Knight Archive Patch 7.0+

If you have a way to improve these macros I would love the feedback. 9/1/16 6:05 Added a simple burst macro. 9/3/16 updated to what I’m currently using.

Must apply Rime Procs manually.

DKBurst: I realize Frostsythe would do more damage than Obliterate but if I used Frostsythe I wouldn’t have enough runic power to use Frost Strike which would stop killing machine from going off.

Sequences[“DKAoE”] = {
helpTxt = “Talent: 3,1,1,2,2,1,1”,
StepFunction = GSStaticPriority,
PreMacro = [[
/startattack
]],
“/castsequence Remorseless Winter”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Frostscythe”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Frost Strike”,
PostMacro = [[
/cast pillar of frost
]],
}

Sequences[“DKST”] = {
helpTxt = “Talent: 3,1,1,2,2,1,1”,
StepFunction = GSStaticPriority,
PreMacro = [[
/startattack
]],
“/castsequence Remorseless Winter”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Obliterate”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Frost Strike”,
PostMacro = [[
/cast pillar of frost
]],
}

Sequences[“DKBurst”] = {
helpTxt = “Talent: 3,1,1,2,2,1,1”,
StepFunction = GSStaticPriority,
PreMacro = [[
/startattack
]],
“/castsequence Remorseless Winter”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Obliterate, Frost Strike”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Obliterate”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Frost Strike”,
“/castsequence Obliteration”,
“/castsequence Empower Rune Weapon”,
PostMacro = [[
/cast pillar of frost
]],
}

@Mike thanks :slight_smile:

9/3/16 I revised the macros to what I’m currently using.

I’m at ilvl 822 right now and I sustain over 250k dps minimum against 3 or more targets using the “DKAoE”.

I apply Howling Blast manually because my Rime Procs can’t be macro’d.

My single target macros “DKST” and “DKBurst” only pull around 125k dps against a single target. Please help!!

Once I reach 25%crit 55%mastery I will replace all Obliterates with Frostscythe(x2).

love the single target. im lvl 104 with ilvl 731. pulling 95-98k. thats about 10k more than the previous macro i was using. When i used you talents, with my old amcro my initalt burst with obliteration, pillar, and trinkets was around 120-125.
I think the problem with your burst macro is that it casts ERW right away, your single target one i lvoe.

ill try your new ones. im jsut going to put in code box for easier copy and paste.

Sequences[“DKAoE”] = {
helpTxt = “Talent: 3,1,1,2,2,1,1”,
StepFunction = GSStaticPriority,
PreMacro = [[
/startattack
]],
“/castsequence Remorseless Winter”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Frostscythe”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Frost Strike”,
PostMacro = [[
/cast pillar of frost
]],
}

Sequences[“DKST”] = {
helpTxt = “Talent: 3,1,1,2,2,1,1”,
StepFunction = GSStaticPriority,
PreMacro = [[
/startattack
]],
“/castsequence Remorseless Winter”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Obliterate”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Frost Strike”,
PostMacro = [[
/cast pillar of frost
]],
}

Sequences[“DKBurst”] = {
helpTxt = “Talent: 3,1,1,2,2,1,1”,
StepFunction = GSStaticPriority,
PreMacro = [[
/startattack
]],
“/castsequence Remorseless Winter”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Obliterate, Frost Strike”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Obliterate”,
“/castsequence reset=combat Frost Strike”,
“/castsequence Obliteration”,
“/castsequence Empower Rune Weapon”,
PostMacro = [[
/cast pillar of frost
]],
}

your original singel target did 30k more dps for me.

Sequences["DKST"] = {
specID = 251,
helpTxt = "Talent: 3,1,1,2,2,1,1",
StepFunction = GSStaticPriority,
PreMacro = [[
/startattack
]],
'/castsequence reset=20 Remorseless Winter, Howling Blast',
'/castsequence reset=combat Obliterate',
'/castsequence reset=combat Frost Strike',
PostMacro = [[
/use 13
/use 14
/cast pillar of frost
]],
}

i think the same thing is happening with the ERW. it casts too early. which i think may be hampering your dps burst. However, when i cuse obliteration at the start of the single target macro, i get up to 135k before it comes back down to around 95k. im going to just throw obliteration in at the post macro for the single target along with the /use 13, /use 14, and pillar.

Can you tell me how can I applay it to gnome sequencer enhanced because the normal gnome sequencer stopped working for me when the legion arrived.

I recommend you download gnome sequencer from here:

and watch the how to videos here:
https://wowlazymacros.com/forums/topic/easy-gnomesequencer/

I’ve never used Gnomesequencer Enhanced so I can’t really help you with it. Sorry bud :frowning:

Well i do know how to use gnome sequencer but somehow it stopped working for me and the only one that still does is GS-E that’s why i asky if you can addjust it?
