Can someone send me there downtime macro for weaving Mana and healing? I
think I need to set those up so I can spare my hands.

Thanks

Ranian,

I am just catching up with the many emails of late. Downtime macro I use:

/pause 5, /stopsong
/pause 30, /cast 3
/pause 5, /stopsong
/cast 4
/e sings a soothing tune

I always stopsong at the beginning of my macro since most time I already
have a song up that needs stopping. My pause 5 is time I need to recover
consistently.

Cast 3 is either Cantana or HOR depending on group makeup(Cantana for
heavier caster group and HOR for heavier melee). My pause 30 is for my
timing of casting time for buff icon to come up before next song.

Stopsong again and pause to recover.

Cast 4 is Chorus of Clarity.

My emote is just let everyone I group with know what I am doing.

I leave Clarity song going for two pulses and hit the macro again. If I
don't pay attention or go afk for a sec, clarity continues to play = happy
casters.

In general, I use three macros during combat. Based on my own experience
and knowledge gained from this list, they are only 2 line macros.

Each combat macro uses this base structure:

/pause 5, /stopsong
/cast x (where x is the number of the song you want to cast).

I label them Fight 1, Fight 2 and Fight 3. If I need a different song, I
either edit the macro to a different song already memmed or mem in the right
song. What does this do for you? I only have to hit three keys to twist
instead of six(don't have to stop a song anymore). I only use 2 line macros
in case there is a problem and I need to do something else. Macros can't be
stopped(that I know of) so long macros can cause a problem. (ie, you just
started a long macro, then big bad mob spawns on cleric, you want to charm
it, but ack! you can't due to the macro must run its course... you can see
the potential problem)
