Cata Frost DK dps macro? anyone?

[halabar]

there have been enough changes, that I'd like to see if anyone has anything working.

[halabar]

according to the boys at EJ, the rotations should look something like this:

single target:

Diseases > Ob if both Frost/Unholy pairs and/or both Death runes are up, or if KM is procced >
BS if both Blood Runes are up > FS > Rime > Ob > BS > HoW.

multi target:

HB if both Frost runes and/or both Death runes are up >
DnD/PS if both Unholy Runes are up > FS > HB > BS > DnD/PS HoW.

I'm clueless as how to model the prioritization in green in a macro..

My 1 button spam macro looks like this:

/castsequence [reset=combat] plague strike, howling blast, obliterate, horn of winter, blood strike, blood strike, howling blast, howling blast, howling blast, howling blast
/cast frost strike
/use 13
/use 14
/cast blood fury
/cast anti-magic shell
/cast pillar of frost

Pulls respectable numbers, im sure its not optimal.

use a click macro because with all the proccs its hard

i dont use obliterate and i play in Unholy presenc and for PvP this is just fucking great, reforge everything to mastery

How would you get those setup with a click macro without the timing commas? just a long string of click commands?

(Sorry still a noob at building these, I do a lot better hacking on what someone has started...)

I'm not really a fan of the alternating dps buttons, but they are amazing for DK's :P
After a couple hours of dps testing here is what I've come up with :
Frost DK Dps - 2 button alternating (See Mercucio's Thread)

Button1:

/castsequence reset=combat plague strike, blood strike, howling blast, obliterate, howling blast, howling blast
/use 13
/use 14

button2:

/castsequence reset=combat horn of winter, frost strike, frost strike, frost strike, frost strike, frost strike
/cast blood tap

Im using the 2 button thing (i mightve stolen it from mercurio, im sure i didnt think of it myself lol) in order to use my spam button (which is 4) and then alternate with 6 which will summon my ghoul... thats how im trying to keep the ghoul up withoiut having to pay attention to the cooldown.

I will give your 2 button deal a try and report whether it does better than my gimpy macro =P

Are you in frost or unholy presence?

Thanks.

Button1:

/castsequence reset=combat plague strike, blood strike, howling blast, obliterate, howling blast, howling blast
/use 13
/use 14

button2:

/castsequence reset=combat horn of winter, frost strike, frost strike, frost strike, frost strike, frost strike
/cast blood tap

If you had an addon, allowing for longer macros...
Would a longer macro achieve the same thing?

/castsequence reset=combat Plague Strike, Horn of Winter, Blood Strike, Frost Strike, Howling Blast, Frost Strike, Obliterate, Frost Strike, Howling Blast, Frost Strike, Howling Blast, Frost Strike
/use 13
/use 14
/cast Blood Tap
