Shield of the Righteous :: Protection Paladin :: 8.3+ Mythic+ // Raids

Keeps shutting off my sound effects. Otherwise its doing great.

Hey @nozomroto check out inside the GSE options for the sound option and try that to see if it fixes it.

It only seems to happen with this macro setup. I use many others for other classes from wowlazy and it never happens with those.

@nozomroto - because this macro calls another macro within it … i dont know of any other macros on here that do that

@mythos - make sure you are setting up the macro correctly both for your MS and the MS rate of which you are firing your mouse at

@larry-dumas1 - your gonna have to be a bit more upfront here - there’s so many unknown factors to your statement - are you testing it on training dummies, in dungeons, real world questing, are you out of charges because you are “out of combat range” - (the macro will still fire off Shield of Righteous even though you are out of range and waste charges) - your gonna have to put the actual ability Shield of Righteous on your BAR to see how many charges you have left and see what is going on with your side of things

@everyone - that last part will help out anyone else having issues - put Shield of Righteous on your ability bar and you will see how many charges it has to see whats’ going on should you be having any issues with the macro

Thank you for the quick answer, however I am a little lost with “setting up the macro correctly both for your MS and the MS rate of which you are firing”.

I am using a Steelseries 500 Mouse and I set the “spam” to 100ms. I played arround a little, but if I go under the 100ms SoTR spams to fast.
Do I have to set up MS in the AddOn or Macros itself?

ok first off you have to know how the /click pause feature even works so take a look here:

make sure your MS in GSE is set to the same MS as your Mouse / Keyboard (whatever your using to spam the key)

second:

with the /click RIGHTEOUS function being in the KEYPRESS section it is normally going to be the very first thing the macro tries to do when you spam the macro

so: seeing how the Shield of the Righteous ability doesn’t require a target or anything within range you can spam that thing (and waste charges) if you are NOT in combat or in range of a mob

@everyone - that last part will help out anyone else having issues - put Shield of Righteous on your ability bar and you will see how many charges it has to see whats’ going on should you be having any issues with the macro

see if this video helps:

You sir, are the best.
Thank you for that video explanation.
I was so used to an older version of GSE that I totally didn’t realize that there is an MS option in GSE. Thank you very much for your macro and your help! Keep up the good work. I left you a follow on Twitch on YouTube.

hope it helps … i was about to type a whole novel but figured a video would be easier!

stay safe and healthy!

Still knocks out my sound effects, otherwise working fine.

Played with the different error speech options till i got to work!!

its occurring during boss fights. i was doing mythic 0 just for weekly and attacking boss. i have SotR on bar and it wasnt firing, but on trash it was working flawless. on training dummy it works fine.

lol dunno why it wouldn’t work on boss fights -

edited my post . i think i found my issue. i forgot to click on the use external ms timings button. after doing that i dont seem to have any issues so far.

Wow! Your macros are a blast and helped me out with prot, now my gameplay is super fun! really appreciate. I have one question, atm i´m using your seraphin macro build, which one is the best?

Best is figurative - what do you do with your tank ? If you tanking low keys < 10 IMO then the Seraphim build/macro is fun and works great. Higher keys > 10 then the Righteous Protection works better (more survivability)

Not a bad job for a Marine :slight_smile: (retired Army guy). I ran this macro on the tank dummy in Zuldazar and without using lay on hands or any defensive cooldowns, I was able to get to 89 stacks (with a 448 ilvl) before i died. Great job! Seems to be working fine for me. Hooah!!!

Glad you like it! Have fun with it !!

dont work for me :frowning:

make sure you ‘accidently’ didn’t put a space at the end - backspace right up to the last character

Having issues where SOTR doesn’t cast sometimes. Primarily in dungeons and raids but also in open world content, running at 50ms with the exact same macro you’re using via iCUE suite and Corsair mouse.

I’d say roughly 80% of the time it works fine but seems to get stuck in a loop wherein no SOTR casts go off during longer encounters.

I have the RIGHTEOUS macro imported and left it on an empty button on my actionbar with no macro associated with it. Using the main RIGHTEOUS_PROTECTOR macro on number 1 on my mouse, doubt swapping it to 6 as shown in your example will make any difference though.

E: Great macro other than that small hiccup, thanks for the contribution
