help adding potion use to macro

I'm trying to write up a simple macro for burns.

I want to use Elemental Catalysis, use Arcane Potion, then swap titles cast fire training, then swap titles back.

I can get everything working except the using the arcane potion. Can someone show me how the line should be written to use it please? Thanx

You most likely can achieve this in DIYCE 2.0.

You can find the link to a R/S DIYCE macro in my signature and I do have my cooldowns in there. Just modify it so it casts Elemental Catalysis, Arcane Potion and you could easily do a title swap with just a small modification.

That's the thing, I don't want to mess with diyce if I dont have to. I'd rather just have a simple macro to do it. If need be I'll just do the macro and press the button for the potion

once you have the /wait command the lest line should be
/use Arcane Potion

I figured thats what it was, but that command doesn't trigger the potion use.

I have a...

/wait 1.5
/use Arcane Potion

and that doesn't trigger it for me

@Dropbear: You're mixing the syntaxes a bit.
"/use ITEMNAME" expects the item name without any quotes and stuff like that after the slash command.
"/script UseItemByName("ITEMNAME")" executes a lua script which calls a respective lua function.

Ziav, i was having a similiar issue with the potion macro :

/use Elemental Mana Stone

worked fine when i created a macro by itself to test it, but when i added it to my line up it didnt work.

The problem was this :

i wasnt using the correct /wait time, i had a skill /cast group heal, which is a cast time of 3, but then i only had a /wait of 1.5 after for the pot, i needed to extend the /wait time to 4 seconds after group heal, to account for the actual skills cast time.

I hope that helped.

God Bless you.

May Jesus Christ be Charitable unto you all :D
