Mage Trick – Pre-Stack Your Trinket Buff
Posted on 2008 under Gear, General, Wrath of the Lich King | No CommentThe infamous Faxmonkey discovered something:
Under the category of "Tips and Tricks", It's been brought to my attention that combining and reforming Eternals (and presumably primals) is instant, has no global cooldown, and, most importantly, counts as a spell cast. This means it can be macroed as a way to instantly and quickly *Force* "on spell cast" trinkets like [Embrace of the Spider] to proc (assuming their not on GCD). Furthermore, I'm fairly sure (though I have no way to test) that this could also be used to *instantly* stack your [Illustration of the Dragon Soul] to 10 stacks.
The downside to this approach is that the macro must be spammed, because there's a momentary delay before the Eternal or component parts are "created" and thus you can't simply combine and recombine the same eternal all in one macro press.
The following macro works if spammed:
/use Eternal water
/use Crystallized Water
You can of course just do the whole Slowfall thing, but that costs mana and GCD's. This is something you can do as you're actually running in for the pull.
