Arcane Blast Macro Please

Could someone please share or make an Arcane Blast macro for me that includes the following?

- 4 Arcane Blasts
- Presence of Mind (When not on cd)
- Synapse Springs on my Firehawk Gloves (When not on cd)
- Volcanic Potion (When not on cd)
- Arcane Power (When not on cd)
- Berserking (When not on cd)

I'm sure this is a rather simple macro, I am just very inexperienced at them. Thanks for the help! :)

How do I make it so it uses PoM after my 3rd arcane blast. Also, how do I make it use the rest of that stuff after my 4th arcane blast?
Something like this should work:

/castsequence reset=20 Arcane Blast,Arcane Blast,Arcane Blast,Presence of Mind,Arcane Blast
/use 10
/use Volcanic Potion
/use Arcane Power
/use Berserking


That should work. If it doesn't, let me know and I'll try to tweak it some.
I've always found it cumbersome to use castsequence macros. Also, one thing you need to know is that AP and PoM cannot be used at the same time, so that can sometimes screw up macros that contain both. Much easier to separate them into different macros.

Here's and example of what I use:

#showtooltip Arcane Blast
/use [mod:ctrl] Moonwell Chalice
/use [mod:ctrl] Mana Gem
/cast [mod:ctrl] Arcane Power
/cast Arcane Blast

I just hit it without ctrl enough to get my AB stack up, and then hold ctrl when i want to pop all my cooldowns for a burn. Just add /use 10 and berserking to this, and it should do what you want. Just need to be able to count to 4 or watch your AB stack.

I use a seperate macro for PoM with an option to use a volcanic potion instead:

#showtooltip
/use [mod:ctrl] Volcanic Potion
/cast [nomod] Presence of Mind
/cast Arcane Blast

I usually save my volcanic potion for timewarp:

#showtooltip
/cast Time Warp
/use Volcanic Potion

Note that I dont have any bars bound to ctrl+whatever, so that I can use the mod:ctrl in a lot of macros for different things.
Mine may not be as fancy but it gets the job done. It may require 2 clicks to activate all abilities.

#showtooltip Arcane Blast
/use 10
/use Volcanic Potion
/cast Berserking
/cast Arcane Power
/cast Arcane Blast

Personally i would leave out Presence of Mind and have that keybound separate.

Now to add a cast sequence into this macro to activate everything after 4 AB's would be a PITA to macro, and quite possibly impossible.

What i do is have AB on a keybinding and then ALT + that keybinding activates pewpew mode. (e.g for me MouseWheelDown is my Arcane Blast Keybinding and ALT+MouseWheelDown is my macro)

Hope this helps


First, I'd use Mage Nuggets, and Mage Mana Bar. These will help a lot with monitoring stacks/mana efficiency/etc.

Second, I have 2 macros that I hit after Flame Orb. Since each Flame Orb tick is a different spell cast, you want it up right before you burn. All you'd have to do is add /use 10 in with the first macro (I'm unsure if it triggers the trinket cd or not, as I am not engineering on my mage). If it does, you can just put it in there too and ignore the error messages that pop up, and spam it when the cd comes up.

Optimally you want to be at around....85% mana (wasted mana from mana gem overflow or any other reason is wasted dps) i believe when you start this. I normally spam the second macro just in case Mirror Images decides to be buggy and cast with a gcd.

Flame Orb (Shift-3)

Macro 1: (Shift-4)
#showtooltip Arcane Blast
/use Mana Gem
/cast Presence of Mind
/use 13
/use 14
/cast Arcane Blast

Macro 2: (Shift-5)
#showtooltip Arcane Blast
/cast Arcane Power
/cast Mirror Image
/cast Arcane Blast
