    I have not seen any decent posts anywhere for Shaman Hotkeys, so here I will post what I have so far. Some people prefer "Multi-Binding" but you can basically do the same thing in a more organized manner with macro "hotkeys." I mostly box my shaman, as most people do these days. I hope these help. (Note: I don't have TBM expan.)

    Shaman Hotkeys:

    Malo Slow Crip -- Debuff hotkey - 1st thing I hit.

    Thank you for a very well put together macro set up ..

    Why do you put Talisman of the Leopard in a hotkey when you should be casting Roar of the Lion for a better proc buff and a heal over time more often then you need to hit that hotkey.
  4. Brohg Augur

  5. Wyvern Lorekeeper

    -- responses above: as I mentioned just replace newer spells, AA, etc as needed.

    I forgot my 2 buttons for tribute:

    TRIB (On)
    /timer 140000, /tribute personal on - long timer to show I clicked it
    /tribute guild on
    /trophy personal on
    /trophy guild on
    /g Tribute Activated!

    TRIB (Off)
    /tribute personal off
    /tribute guild off
    /trophy personal off
    /trophy guild off
    /g Tribute Deactivated!

    If anyone has other hotkeys or better ways to do any keys I have posted for shaman, please add them or comment.
  6. Vdidar Augur

    The answer is already stated......

    I am still wondering why you bother to put them in a hotkey when you should be keeping the spell up all the time during a fight anyway.
  8. Iila Augur

    Low effort boxing. He's not trying play the characters to their best, just better than they would be with a command every 10 or 15 seconds.

    I didn't think recourse and renewal could be MGBed. Although I've only tried renewal.
  10. Brohg Augur

    Ancestral Aid Tranqs/MGBs
  11. Wyvern Lorekeeper

    I posted a hotkey that I was experimenting with:

    AE Heal [xT1] - AE (MGB) heal
    /timer 30300, /xtarget 1 (preset to group/raid tank)
    /alt act 35 (MGB)
    /cast 4 (Recourse)
    /cast 7 (Renewal) - if recourse is down (MGB Intervention in place?)
    /xtarget 2 (preset to group/raid assist, optional)
    -- This key has been DELETED
    -- MGB/tranq does not affect group heal spells or clickies it looks.
    -- Also does not help with Talisman of the Leopard
    -- Other than A. Aid and normal buffs this can not be used for "super" effects.

    Confusing info about what can be used - I read clerics could use for mass heals so figured shaman could also. Anyhow key deleted.

    You seem to have a macro for just about everything a shaman can do, except rooting.
    So the only thing you might want to add is a root macro. I used to have one when playing a mage alt that would xtar 2 (or whatever the second aggroed mob) and hit AA virulent paralysis. Then xtar 3 and hit AA paralytic sprores. Obviously this only works on two adds and paralytic spray would work better for lots of adds, but sometimes positioning doesn't allow for spray to work as well on an alt, so this might be useful to have for some.

    Now that Shaman is an excellent DPS class here are 2 new DPS keys:

    DPS [18s]
    /pause 27, /cast 8 Serpentil's Venom / Gorangu
    /pause 15, /pet attack
    /pause 27, /cast 9 Sephry's Malady / Reef Crawler's Blood
    /pause 7, /alt act 148 Malosinete
    /timer 74, /cast 7 Tribal Pact 18s reuse / Nuke
    -- This is a bit long for a hotkey but my shaman is not main healer.
    -- low mana use when using "swift" dots.
    Note: I do not have the new combined dot nuke.

    DPS [1m+] - most of the 1min stuff in one key
    /pause 27, /cast 10 Nectar of Woe 1m 15s duration
    /pause 7, /alt act 148 Malosinete
    /pause 1, /alt act 15073 Banestrike 1m reuse
    /pause 7, /useitem 28 3 Darkened Jaundiced Bone Bracer 2m reuse
    /timer 735, /cast 6 Renewal 1m duration

    I am thinking about adding a DPS [2m] button for Livio's Affiliation. I would need to drop Tribal Pact or the nuke.

    DPS [2m+] - most of the 2min stuff in one key
    /pause 12, /cast 11 Livio's Affiliation 2m 15s duration
    /pause 22, /alt act 47 (Cannie) 2m reuse
    /cast 4 Recourse heal
    /cast 5 Invervention
    /timer 1335, /cast 3 Surge
