Yes, I could see the server lag being an issue, if the /stopsong has to do a full round trip between client and server before the next line of a macro. I was hoping there was some client-side optimization going on. If the server is involved, there might be a delay. But... the same delay should be involved with a double click. TANSTAAFL. So, the question is, is a human being doing a double click faster than a 20 year old piece of software processing a piece of text. I think I have to put my money on the software.
Like I said, with each song hotbarred with a single /stopsong /cast X, I can twist 5 if I am in good form. But, I hate having to use up the hotbar when the spell gems should be available via hotkey. I might have to look at remapping all my hotkeys, say 1-6 for hotbar, and QWERTYUI for spells/songs (I'm left handed). Gotta see what all those are currently bound to (like I for inventory). If I could get both hands fully involved so that barding is like typing, I could really shine, since I have been typing for a living for 35 years.
