Check out the latest upload (v. 3.0). It should fire off Thunder Clap more reliably on initial pulls.
You should be hitting IP on your own if you’re having issues with damage incoming, as macros are already a fine balance between a bunch of different items and there is no one size fits all. People with and without tier sets, the level of the key, position and frequency where you get hit with AOE/ground damage will all factor into your personal needs.
Hey, ty for 3.0 Orbalisk! I was wondering if by chance you might put the imports in for all updates as you progress. Seems like you update this macro as you go up in keys, tiers so on. Might make it easier for people to level or doing dungeons/heroics low mythics high mythic. Might clear some of the confusion as to what might work for some. 3.0 seems to be working fine in 12s for me. Keep up the good work and again thanks so much for taking the time to do this!
The thread gets way too long to have all of the historical ones unfortunately. I’ll end up making some tabs in my main macro for alternate setups for lower tiers, and tier sets.
How are people doing On single target btw? i have no idea how much damage a tank should do on single but iam around 14k on a good day at 386ilvl Focus On versa and haste
highly depends how much you have to spend rage on defensives
if you don’t need to press ignore pain you can spam revenge and thus shield slam while sitting in battle stance.
here’s the 2th boss on shadowmoon burial grounds +16
and here’s my gear
it definitely feels more reliable on pull but i can’t say for 100% since i make quite a few changes to the macro to fit my playstyle and gear
Did you make changes to 3.0? or 2.4/5 from earlier? What changes did you make?
3.0 i take out shield charge and replace it with revenge since i have 4 set and i’ve been messing around with 0 ignore pain in the macro aswell
and just pressing it yourself
i also don’t play with heavy repercussions but with into the fray so i hold shield charge as a 3rd shield block charge to overlap the otherwise downtime.
I’ll hopefully start getting tier pieces this coming week so I can test that as well! I spent most of the last few weeks in PvP between Arms and Fury.
tried the V3 in a 17nokhud for fun and giggles performed pretty good on the overall (still no tier pieces^^)
91%uptime on IP (running only in battle stance in this dungeon so should be way higher in def stance^^)
Awesome! Should I be in battle stance mostly? I normally just sit in defensive stance.
depends this week being fortified i sit Dstance for trash and i swap to Battle stance on bosses and just swap back to Dstance for any incoming tank busters.
also i just did a 20 halls of valor, out of time. but logged it all so will send it your way.
shield block up time felt too low, often shield block was off cd and ran out but i kept sapping my rage before gaining the 30 that is required.
ofcourse i have modified the macro so hard to say if this would even happen if i didn’t modify it. anyways i’ll send the logs your way.
can you link your macro?
Took your suggestion for manually doing ip, also running into the fray so shield block might be a lil low… +16 NO in time. Much better improvement on thunderclap if i might say. Overall damage 33k at 392 ilvl
pretty cool with 3.0! im running at 50ms, shield block could go off more? but then again iw as hitting tank dummy and survived with only macro runing till 530% or so! was crazy haha. loving this macro. cant wait to be 4p set im 2p so far
Loving this macro. Great work. Question though, can you make a version for when off tanking and not currently needing to use all tanking skills? A More pure dps version that puts in battle stance and dpsing
I can attempt that this weekend. Will do!
u can pretty much use the same Macro just duplicate it, remove IP from it and replace it with revenge. u want Shield block up anyways since it buffs your shield slam dmg i would recommend removing the Stances from the macro anyways and have a Stance change macro instead since u can pretty much tank in Battle stance 90% of the time
#showtooltip
/cast [stance:1] Battle Stance; Defensive Stance
I had to make an account just to say thank youfor the macro. I have just swapped to warrior tank and did all of normal last night and some of hc. I was very low 374 ilvl but its safe to say i hold my own. The only issue i found was could do with a bit more up time on IP and SB. Il post my Ilvl parses and uptime too.
Normal
HC
