CD macro says "cooling down" and skips skill that its supposed to cast

I made a CD macro that I was planning to use if I get too lagged/or feeling lazy, and was testing it in instance run last night. However, whenever it gets to Intensification or Elemental catalysis (either one or the other, not both at the same time), it says "cooling down" and does not cast the skill Intensification and just moves on to cast Elemental Catalysis, or it casts intensification and gives "cooling down" at Elemental Catalysis and does not cast elemental catalysis. When this happens, the skills are clearly not in CD, and there s wait time of 1.0 between casting all skills too. So why is it skipping skills?

Maybe try a slightly longer wait time? I have a similar, but shorter, macro that I just kept adding .1 wait time to whenever the GCD blocked a specific skill.

Ping. You have a mighty lot of skills going on there, so even a tiny, minuscule change in ping will throw the whole thing off. Cooldowns are always best used manually. A macro for cooldowns is never going to be as effective and foolproof as manually clicking or hotkeying.

i've found i like to line them all up on an action bar. that way none are missed by accident or lag spike. also, if you are in a lower level instance(helping people, soloing, farming aggs, whatever u may doing there), you can pick and choose the buff you like, maybe skipping consumables or costly buffs.

also, if a boss requires a certain buff not be used(i'm s/d...i have certain burn buffs that could prove fatal if i misused them), it it easier to just skip it than try and cancel buff or block it from casting in the macro.
my r/p can outdps r/m. your name is stupid.

mages should stack dex. word.

I changed the CD time and it seems to work, ty.

I usually like to click CD's myself, but sometimes I lag so much I just can't click anything lol, which is why I made the macro.
