Oct 02, 2013 Hi guys, this thread is to share your warrior macros. I hate having to press keys across my keyboard so i always try to put skills into macros. I'll start off with my macros first. Note: I am still lv40 so i don't have all the skills available. Attack 1: /ac 'Inner Beast' /ac 'Heavy Swing' /ac 'Tomahawk'.

DRG Macros Done Right - Opinions.
Hey guys, I main a PLD but have been playing with a DRG lately and would like some feedback on the current macro set up I use. Now these macros are bascially Off GCD macros tucked in front of on GCD skills. This way the weave in between the skills GCDs and suffer no time wasting.
/macroicon 'Vorpal Thrust' /ac 'Power Surge' /ac 'Vorpal Thrust'
/macroicon 'Full Thrust' /ac 'Life Surge' /ac 'Full Thrust'

Now my reason for doing those are thus, for sake of ease we will assume I have done my Dis/CT combo already and have HT up. I start with True Thrust which activates a GCD, I then hit my Vorpal Thrust macro. It fires off Power Surge during the GCD and then Vorpal Thrust once the GCD is finished. Then I hit my Full Thrust macro. It fires off Life Surge DURING Vorpal Thrusts GCD leaving me ready to hit Full Thrust once the GCD has finished. I then Full Thrust and break the animation with Jump. Full Thrust benefits from the Life Surge buff and Jump benefits from the Powr Surge buff as it is still up from before.
There is no wait commands or any of that stuff as I dont trust them. I just spam the macro to fire off the Off GCD ability as quick as possible and the on GCD ability once the GCD cycle has finished. Power Surge is applied a GCD before it is used. Some may say that high movement fights could waste the Power Surge buff if by the time the 2.5second GCD is finished and I have fired off Full Thrust then broke its animation with Jump if the mob moves. Well Jump doesnt care if the mob moves lol and if I need to avoid an AoE or a mechanic then the same would have been said if I had used the buff on it own so to me that is a non issue.
I see alot of macros with wait times and the likes. I dont trust those and prefer to manually do my combos, but thse macros allow me to tuck buffs inetween them.
So any Endgame DRGs wanna shed some insight on them, incase I have missed anything? I have only raided as a PLD so I may be forgetting a DPS mechanic that would cause those macros to provide a DPS lose. Though I cant think what that would be.
