Hi, I am not sure if this is intended, but currently, the lowest integer for /wait is 2.5. Please fix it so we can use lower and exact integers. For example, if we have enough skill speed to get our global cool down to 2.43, we should be allowed to use /wait 2.43 in our macros.
Thank you!
You clearly don't know what integer means ... integer has no decimals - e.g. 2 or 5 or so on, so 2.5 is a number with one decimal place. I don't know how exactly you've came to conclusion that 2.5 is the lowest value you can use in the /wait command but it was already announced by devs that all decimals are now not used / are disregarded in the macro /wait commands so it will make no difference whatsover if you put in 2.43 or 2.50 (or any other decimal number starting with 2 for that matter) - the "timing" resulst will be still the same. And you can indeed use /wait 1 as well. And even if the decimals would work in the /wait command (in contradiction to what was annouced) due to the GCD of exactly 2.5 s it would be pointles (apart of the "instant" actions) to have wait any shorter than that.
EDIT:
It's really unclear if it's atually rounding down / up or only cutting of the decimal places entirely - by what your described it would like like former although the wording the devs post indicated more tha latter. But it could be eassilly tested with creating some macro with repeated wait command at and below / ower x.5 values and then measure it. Either way - decimals are not (to be) used and definitelly not on such fine scale as we'd might prefer saddly. I personally think it's a step back from what was there before and even the explanation for why they did this was absolutelly silly ...
Actually, a /wait 2.5 is NOT 2.5 seconds - it rounds up to 3.
The reason macros don't work if you put /wait 2.49 is it rounds down to 2 which is too early. If you use ANY macro with /wait 2.5 in it you're extending your rotation by 0.5 seconds. It can work okay for some chain casts, but as a melee you'll be nerfing your dps by using it.
I doubt it will change, sadly, but I agree it WOULD be handy to be able to specific exact wait times for smoother skill weaving.
Greetings!
