    Half Cast Macro

    This macro will only work with Quartz; a casting bar that shows you when you can press escape/move when you're casting and have the cast still go off. This addon can be found at http://wow-en.curse-gaming.com/downloads/details/7960/

    The Macro-
    Something along the lines of...
    /asdf
    /asdf
    (repeat)
    /stopcasting
    /cast *Spell*

    You click the macro once, it creates lag, and the Quartz casting bar will show a half cast. Once the cast bar gets to the *stop casting area* you press the macro again and it cancels the current cast and starts another. Try it out =P
    If this doesnt work for you, you can reduce your casting speed a little by just using...
    /stopcasting
    /cast *Spell*

    Re: Half Cast Macro

    That dosent work. It isent the casting bar that makes your spells shorter it is compensating for your lag by canceling your spell early. This only confuses the casting bar by making your lag terrible when it calculates you "ok to cancel" zone. This will result in you screwing up your spells, not making them faster.

    It isnt the casting bar that makes your spells shorter... its your lag. The Quartz casting bar shows you when you can cancel your spell and have it still go off.

    either way you look at it, the server is still going to see a 3 sec fireball as a 3 sec fireball. you'll only throw off your party members by jerky movements, and if you get aggro, you'll throw yourself off by damage spikes that cant be as easily healed through because the healer can't see your movements as easily.

    OK, there is no need for the /asdfasdf crap. But /stopcasting is extremely useful when combined with Quartz to improve DPS, most good mages know this.

    its just as everyone else said your not getting a shorter casting time or anything its just when you are lagging and start casting and the bar doesnt appear when it finally does appear the green bar will immediately go to the correct time

    I laughed, gave him the +rep rofl...

    It was a good idea though. Would've been nice if you tested out the idea before you rushed to make a post about it.
