Imo no. Macros are bad for smn. You want to learn to manually control your pet.

Mainly because if garuda is doing a move or is on cooldown herself, the time between hitting the contagion button and it actually taking effect can vary greatly from one contagion to the next so you may not bane the contagion or chance loosing a few ticks on all the mobs around by making the wait time longer.

I will Tri and then immediately start a ruin and hit contagion (which if done right is seamless) while I'm casting so I can either bane immediately after if it take effect or hit ruin 2 for a an extra bit of dps on the main target while waiting on contagion and still be able to bane as soon as it does take effect. Make sense?

Also miasma 2 is weak so unless you have it hitting multiple targets (it doesn't bane so you can technically make contagion extend the durations of it on the original target) its worthless and you don't want to delay casting or anything to move in to do it, so it can be very situational
