i dont have macros to use, i dont really know how to make them, but sounds great. plz link some if anyone knows some good ones.
Your main burst macro should be:
#tooltip <spellnamehere>
/cast Mirror Image
/cast Arcane Power
/cast Icy Veins
/use 13
/use 14
This will active your Mirror Images, Arcane Power and Icy Veins, as well as active the on use effects of your trinkets, should they have any (if they don't nothing will happen). The tooltip part allows you to have the macro button show the chosen spell's tooltip if you should prefer one, if not you can remove that line.
Another useful one is:
#tooltip Ice Block
/stopcasting
/cast Ice Block
This will instantly cancel any spell you were casting/channeling and cast Ice Block. It'll also show the tooltip for Ice Block. It might not seem useful, but that 0.5 or 1 sec that you'll be faster can make a lot of difference.
You should make a similar macro for Spell Steal and Counterspell, just replace Ice Block with the spellname you wish to have the macro for.

yes it does.
In other words, don't use the exact macro posted by Calael, Take out the mirror image line. Use Mirror image before your other CDs and after that GCD is done pop that macro and start pew pewwing.

You can still use it. Just have to push it twice.
If you use his macro you will waste a GCD off your trinket on-use abilities. If I'm not mistaken they will fire at the same time as MI. That is not desirable. I used to have my MI as the last line in my macro but I lost a GCD on every one of my CD's. May not seem like a lot but it is an easy way to increase your damage done/DPS that much more.

Although i do /userandom 13,14 i still dont loose any gcd on my trinkets. Trinkets have 45s internal cd. You cant pop both at once anyway.
No, the point is that you're wasting 1 GCD of your trinket time not doing anything while you're waiting for the MI GCD to pass. Every second counts.
Having said that, is there a 'usesequence' sort of command, that operates in the same way as castsequence?

For the start of a fight, you can pop MI manually when your tank is ready to pull, and than use your cooldown macro. This way you won't lose any DPS on a wasted GCD.
During a fight, it's indeed better to pop MI manually, cast an AB and than pop your cooldown macro as to avoid the GCD on MI.
I indeed forgot about MI's GCD, so thanks for reminding me of that.
