Why use castsequence for AoE spells?
Castsequence macros can simplify your rotation by casting a series of spells with repeated presses. This is particularly useful for AoE abilities to ensure you are cycling through your builders and spenders efficiently.
How can I customize these macros for my specific talents?
You can replace the spell names in the macros with other AoE talents you might have chosen. For example, if you talent into Secret Technique, you could incorporate it into a castsequence for a powerful AoE burst.
Are there any downsides to using castsequence for AoE?
While convenient, castsequence macros can sometimes be inflexible. If you need to cast a specific spell out of sequence due to a situational change, you might find it more restrictive than individual keybinds.
