Grateful for Assistance with GS Macro

Paladin Archive Patch 6.0+
1

I have spent about 2 hours on the following code and I am at a loss for what is failing. Now taking a trip into town that will take a few hours. Thus I pray that another kind soul will illuminate what errors my macro is making.

My warlock affliction macro is included.

  • GS fails to load my [Sequence.lua] file at all.
  • There fails to be any error messages in my chat window.

Well Met James!

Glad I could help.

thanks

Nice sequences. I rly have to test them to. :stuck_out_tongue:
Below are the ones I currently am testing out for Prot and Ret. Just look at them, try and use what you want.
Perhaps there is / are some who give you better or cleaner results or the one you like most. hehe. (You never know.)
I have to say that gear does make a lot of difference of the outcome.
I mean, the higher the ilvl is or changed stats like haste, crit, multi or mast., the outcome (DPS / DMG done) can fluctuate a lot.
OR I do something rly wrong here. lol (Also my new pala is Full Heirloom and lvl 72 (updated) at the moment of writing this.)

btw. the builds and glyphs i wrote down there… some are from earlier patches/expansions. so don’t look to heavie on them.

Don’t ask for Talent builds, if you want to know my talents and glyphs. Please look at the bottom of this post. There’s a link to my Paladin’s armory.

the reason for the many Hammer Of Wraths is, that i want it to fire asap because if i’m on AW it’s ready all the time and i didn’t wnat to write a burst-macro
