Any endgame tanks use a 969 macro?

Are there any hardcore server first type guild tanks who use this macro?

I mean, it certainly makes the rotation easier, but it's not that hard to just bind some keys and do it manually. The macro just seems so inflexible that I wonder if there are any cutting edge tanks that use it.

I just use a 6 macro. (SotR/HotR)

My consecrate, holy shield, and judgements are all still their own separate keybinds.

Feels odd to be claiming to be "end-game", but I guess I've done Sarth+3[10], and that's the end of the game ATM.

To answer: Fully manual, top row of main page of my N52-GlowyBlueEdition

Then again, I click anything with a CD over 1 minute.

Once 3.0.8 goes in and I stop abusing ShoR x 2 (Whatever works, baby) cast-sequence HotR/Shor would probably be fine. Just make sure HotR is first, and the macro has a "reset=6 seconds" thingy in it.

IMO: If you're sequencing "9".... You're doing it wrong (and you will go OOM).

I'm still re-optimising my UI. Nothing has been hard enough so far that I've had to really fix up my binds. Thus trinkets, bubblewall, pots, etc are currently clicked. Though in theory I can chord-key them all on the N52. Not liking that solution much, but forcing myself to learn it by putting the Roflcopter and OldSkoolBear on the chord-keys and refusing to click them.

Part of the problem is being a bit of luddite re typing "properly". Been using computers ~30 years, and never learned to touch-type, though I am a rather fast typist. Thus the N52 is the first time I've really had to learn to "touch type" anything.

Manual rotation. I'm hardcore, or inefficient, or something. Go me.

still manual, judging, then ShotR*2 , DS, then 2 other things (mainly HotR and consecrate, but it depends on what's up and what I'm tanking), and back to the beginning.

easily pulling 6K TPS like that

Dunno if I'm endgame (naxx 25, malygos 25, that's the end I guess), but I don't macro. Manual rotation, with Whack when I feel lazy. Rotating 5 spells is not a big deal (I use a n52te too :p)...

I will never understand why ppl would want to macro something like this.. Before 3.0 tanking could get boring fast. After 3.0 we have all these buttons to press and keep track of.. Much more fun to me at least

Any endgame tank should be able to maintain his rotation AND be aware without using a macro

Depends on how late it is. I start to zone out around 2am.

I have castover macros for a lot of spells (all not-self buffs and heals), and a macro under bubble that a second click removes bubble and bop.

I do not have any sequence macros, except for ShoR. I have rank 2 and rank 1 under one button with a 6 second reset. There should be no moment ever when you want ShoR 1 instead of ShoR 2, whileI can think of exceptions for every single other spell.

Though maybe I can make one for Divine Plea and Sacred Shield on Self (if I put it on a 1 minute reset and put Sacred Shield in more than once), but I'm not sure I can force Sacred Shield on self in a sequence macro. Does anyone know? Guess I'll try when I'm home
