Elfyau's 8.3 Unholy DK Macro **Update 15-April-20**

hi, i was checking the macro and have some comments:

i assume that is a PVE macro? if yes that some things are making problems.

The skilltree 2233132 shows that you skill epidemic, that death and decay should not be used in single target situations, for AOE you should have a seperate macro

You are using castsequences but only with 2 skills, maybe you should make a longer sequence that is more close to the simcraft usage. you should combine outbreak, festering strike and scourge strike together in one sequence.

Deathstrike should only be on modifier in case you need it. Also epidemic and deathcoil should never be together in one sequence, you will not have enough RP for both. Epidemic is also a AOE only skill.

army of the dead should be off macro, that long cd should be used manually, also apoc should be on modifier, the wounds should be as low as possible

@mma hi thanks for the feedback! I am not sure how long you have been following my macro’s for but to begin with all my macros start off as true one button macros (sometimes with modifiers) after getting decent numbers if there are enough requests and time I start to branch out to ST/AOE macros. So if this macro performs well I will start looking at adjusting things to make it more situationally friendly.

hi, thats tricky but with some effort totally possible, good luck :slight_smile:

Thanks will get back to working on this one now I got things up and running again

Yeah its alot of fun i switched from Frost to Unholy, though not sure if epidemic fires off might just be me not paying attention.

So I’ve been running this for a few days and while I haven’t done any higher end M+, it’s getting me decent numbers. I’m getting around 21-22k and I’m getting sims about 27k (sims assume food and pots and flasks, of which I had none). I’d added a line with a modifier so I can fire a death coil when the proc is there as well.

how can we make the DS spam more so we can use this in pvp too. even in open world not even DS for good healing.

in mythics it would be okay.

An update is coming soon

Tnx for the macro, love it.
But I’m having an issue where I aggro mobs in m+ with it sometimes, even when not having any focus, i’ve already deleted the /tagert noharm part.
Is there a way to stop executing macro when there is no target as I don’t have start stop macro on keyboard, I can only loop it, so my macro is a loop of 100 presses then it stops and I press macro key again.
Also tried to add every where instead of noharm, just harm parameter; still agroing from time to time, might be pets?

what are you using to run the macro?

I’m using keyboard macro but it does not have start stop button, only able to start macro
So what i have is
key press down
wait 20ms
key press up
wait 20 ms

repeat above loop 100 times

so in combat I’m just targeting mobs/boss and hit my run macro key bound to capslock :slight_smile:

Is there no way to have it only run until the button is released? If not then I would probably suggest using AHK.
Also run the macro @70ms (70 up then 70 down)

Thanks I was also thinking of just make some c# or just ahk script for this purpose.
The only issue is that i have is that when no target it auto “picks” a target, ive been reading some posts that this is by design now in wow client it self. if you pres some ability that requires a target it will just select nearby target and cast it on it e.g spell Death Coil.

So question to other ppl who use this macro in m+ runs, how are you not agroing other stuff you supposed not to agrro :slight_smile:

Usually by targeting first or by facing the target you want next as (usually) it’ll pick that one
