Power Word; Shield Macro?

[crowdx]

Hi all,
I am wondering if this is possible, i am thinking that it would be good use of a spam button to put Power Word: Shield on it, i.e. a macro that would target each member of my team and then cast shield on them? I have tried this in just a simple target and then cast macro, did not work, then tried a castsequence, still not luck, all it seems to be doing is casting on the first toon in the macro but not doing the rest of the team.
Anyone get this to work with a Disc priest?
Thanks

AFAIK, macros can't cast a spell, change targets, and cast another spell.

There are 2 ways to do this.

First way: Using click macros to click individual macros that do a simple /tar party1 /cast power word: shield /targetlasttarget.

Second way: Create a keymap in ISBoxer that has 5 steps (one for each group member) that has the macro above.

Here is the mapped key (copy & paste into an ISBoxer KeyMap)

You can spam this key as fast as you want, and even though you'll blow right paste the GCD everyone will get bubbled. it will just require you spam the button for 5 GCDs to get everyone.

LOL, thanks so much for this Svpernova09, funny thing is we talked about this on ISBoxer's IRC chat at the weekend when I was having issues with the click buttons . I did get the buttons to work but it just "feels" like there is lag and not as efficient when I use click buttons to apply the shield and it seems about half the time that the click button does not get shield up on the target, kinda weird.
But I think the code listed should work
Cool

[Bloodcloud]

Would do this the trick ?

/castsequence reset=15 [@party1] Power Word: Shield,NULL
/castsequence reset=15 [@party2] Power Word: Shield,NULL
/castsequence reset=15 [@party3] Power Word: Shield,NULL
/castsequence reset=15 [@party4] Power Word: Shield,NULL
/castsequence reset=15 [@player] Power Word: Shield,NULL

@ work so I can't test it.

and then spam the key until everyone has a shield. then stop and after 15 sec you can start spamming again.

If this works I will do the same for Hots

At work also, so cannot test

Too long, it gets cut off :

/castsequence reset=15 [@party1] Power Word: Shield,NULL
/castsequence reset=15 [@party2] Power Word: Shield,NULL
/castsequence reset=15 [@party3] Power Word: Shield,NULL
/castsequence reset=15 [@party4] Power Word: Shield,NULL
/castsequence reset=15 [@pl

Edit:

I changed it to

/castsequence reset=15 [@party1] Power Word: Shield,NULL
/castsequence reset=15 [@player] Power Word: Shield,NULL

And bubbled party1, but not my toon, so looks like it won't change targets and recast.

Pretty sure we figured this out in another thread about putting hots on people.

Note to svpernova though, if you have problems with macros getting too long you should get macaroon or superdupermacro to let you have longer macros.

Also, the reset condition needs to be after the target conditions. (i'm pretty sure of it anyway)

[Ualaa]

You can use:
/targetparty
/cast Power Word: Shield

Which will cycle through your party one after the other (starting with the nearest); however, /targetparty will never target your own toon.

You could change it to:
/targetparty
/cast [nomod:alt] Power Word: Shield
/cast [mod:alt,Target=Player] Power Word: Shield

Possibly consider an addon like Smart Buff, where you can assign it to buff anyone who is missing a buff, by spamming the key. Not sure that you can use that in combat or not, especially to change targets.




*Edit*
The Rejuvenation on the whole team, via a click macro... was something like:

/castsequence [target=Party1] ,,,,Power Word: Shield
/castsequence [target=Party2] ,,,Power Word: Shield
/castsequence [target=Party3] ,,Power Word: Shield
/castsequence [target=Party4] ,Power Word: Shield
/castsequence [target=Player] Power Word: Shield

[Bloodcloud]

You can use:
/targetparty
/cast Power Word: Shield

drawback, you can;t spam the button. If GCD is in effect you will skip toons.

The Rejuvenation on the whole team, via a click macro... was something like:

/castsequence [target=Party1] ,,,,Power Word: Shield
/castsequence [target=Party2] ,,,Power Word: Shield
/castsequence [target=Party3] ,,Power Word: Shield
/castsequence [target=Party4] ,Power Word: Shield
/castsequence [target=Player] Power Word: Shield

Problems with this is that it NEEDS the /click functionality. It can't be collapsed, because you can't target different targets in a single macro. so it needs to be different macros.
