How is this compared to Hekili, which is simc APL?
Is it just abit comparable, or is this just clicking random stuff?
Not sure what you mean by Hekili, but basically this rotates through the list of spells inside gse on every key click. If nothing inside gse can be cast for a specific key click, it will try to cast lightning bolt (or Chain Lightning) instead. Also, if one of the spells procs, changes its name to a more powerful version, then this macro will try to cast that spell (tempest, p. storm, pr v. blaze) instead of triggering gse to proc.
Also to note, The macros I make are primarily designed to be easy to use (and hopefully fun) over trying to maximize dps according to sims. While I do sometimes mess around a little by changing to order or frequency of spells inside gse to see if there is any improvements, that is usually only if something feels somewhat clunky to play or if the dps seems quite a bit lower than where it aught to be for that class/gear score.
im getting some little lock ups, is there something i should be doing differently maybe? it performs fine, but there are moments where the macro just doesnt want to do anything.
I am experiencing the same thing but do not have a solution. Also, I have not identified what causes the lock-up.
I believe this is the class where I spent a good deal of time messing around with the order/frequency of spells within gse to see how much dps I could get out of it, and every time I tried something where I got my character to cast constantly (no lockups) it would result in worse dps than what I’m getting with the current setup, even with the occasional lockup for about half a second or so (I run my clicks at a speed of 100ms). I may mess around with this more at some point to see if I can get it to run more smooth without a drop in dps, but for right now, I pretty satisfied with its performance.
