best RAID DPS MACROS

[holcomb1977]

Hello everyone,

I have been wondering what the best Raid DPS macro lineup would be. my current line up works great, but I was wondering if someone else has had time to research further, or has a better on that they are using:

Macro 1 - Burn 1
/alt activate 443
/alt activate 245
/disc Ruaabri's Fury Rk. III
/alt activate 1240

The Burn 1 macro pops Bestial Bloodrage, Ruaabri's Fury, Bestial Alignment, and Frenzied Swipes

Macro 2 - Burn 2
/alt activate 127
/disc Savage Rancor Rk. III
/alt activate 241
/alt activate 1431
/alt activate 1719

The Burn 2 macro pops Frenzy of Spirit, Savage Rancor, Bloodlust, Second Spire, Glyph of the Cataclysm

I also have two macros that I constantly spam when in a group or not when not burning:

Spam Macro 1
/disc Maul Rk. III
/alt activate 986
/alt activate 247
/doability 3 (kick)
/alt activate 11080

This macro pops Maul, Bite of the Asp, Feral Swipe, Kick, and Chameleon Strike

Spam Macro 2:

/alt activate 966
/disc Monkey Spirit Discipline
/disc Bestial Evulsing Rk. III
/alt activate 2068
/alt activate 972

This macro pops Ferociousness, Monkey Spirit, Bestial Evulsing, Enduring Frenzy, and Roaring Strike

My spell line up looks like this:
1. Maelstrom Rk. III
2. Miasma Rk. III
3. Kreig's Rk. III
4. Kromtus Lance Rk. III
5. Kromtus Roar Rk. III
6. Cry at the Moon Rk. III
7. Krenk's Feralgia Rk. III
8. Auspice of Eternity
9. Salve of Clorith Rk. II
10. Sabhattin's Mending
11. Dichotomic Fury
12. Ferocity Rk. III

The weave I use is Maelstrom, then Miasma, Then Kreig's Bite, then Miasma, then Roar, then Miasma, then Lance.
I cast Dichotomic Fury when every it is up.
I only cast swarm pets when I am in a group or don't have a burn going.

Are you trying to maximize DPS for a short burn or are you trying to burn as long as possible?  Are there more then one BST in the raid?  How are you setting up your pet buffs/armor/weapons?  What weapons are you using during the different burn stages?  Are you using vet AA (7th)? How about tunic clicks?

On your spells you have 2 that use the same timer.  Kromtus Lance and Kromtus Roar both use Timer 11.  You need to mem an older spell to get a fifth into the rotation.

Kromtus Lance or Kromtus Roar (Timer 11)
Kreig's Bite (Timer 6)
Frozen Miasma (Timer 14)
Visoracius' Maelstrom (Timer 15)
99 Kromrif Lance (Timer 7)

To make life easy you should have all five spells in a key bind or put all 5 in a macro with the most damaging spells casting first.  You just mash one button and the highest damage spell available is cast.
