    Or do not use blood price until your targets are stun immune.

    I never make macros like this cause they are just obnoxious. A good whm will wait 15 seconds for you to finish aoeing and then go ham. This is dps and enmity efficient, the whm has nothing to gain from fighting a drk on this.

    You'd be surprised how many not good WHM you run into in DF though. That's why people make macros like this, because they're sick of healers who just barely do their job. It happens to me a lot as a WAR, but I'm geared enough that it doesn't matter as much.

    Why make your WHM wait 15 seconds to help kill the pack of mobs faster? So you can have the same mana you started the pull with? If anything a WHM who is actually dpsing is the good whm, not the other way around. Using Unleash on the pull as you would normally is enough to hold threat. And even if they got aggro, the mobs will be stunned anyway and you should be using your aoe threat skill anyway so its a non issue.

    In short, the macro is as useless and obnoxious as the berserk/pacify macros. Wait for the mobs to become stun immune then pop Blood price.

    Hmmmm. Does anyone know definitively which is more dps? The drk doing whatever it is they do during blood price or a WHM swift aero - pof holy spam - assize? Cause I'm thinking the WHM is gonna destroy the drk dps hands down making this argument completely pointless. To say the WHM is bad not waiting for blood price to fall off is so ridiculous. Learn to manage your mana better going into the pull? If I see this macro in df I'm pretty much gonna rofl.

    I pull 8 mobs. Whm waits 15 seconds to start holying. I aoe/get hate/self heal with abyssal drain, after 15 seconds whm begins holy spam.

    I pull 8 mobs, whm starts holying. I can't aoe properly or establish a solid lead in hate, which i need if a whm is gonna be holying. When they're done, im close to mp floor, have done crap damage, and probably lost hate on a mob or two.

    In the former scenario, we both get huge aoe deeps, i keep hate, stuff dies. In the latter scenario, i cant do proper damage or hate just so the whm could holy 15s earlier, and stuff takes longer to die.
