I wanted to share a macro I made, because I know this is one tricky things mages have been having trouble with. When you want to chain PoM plus another spell like Polymorph, you have two options:
#showtooltip Polymorph
/use Presence of Mind
/use Polymorph
#showtooltip Polymorph
/castsequence reset=2 Presence of Mind, Polymorph
Because of lag, both macros have to be pressed multiple times, and both have a small chance that you'll begin hard-casting the spell instead of it going off instantly.
I was playing around with the macro today and I came up with something solid. The following still needs to be pressed multiple times to go off, but it has the upshot that you will
never
accidentally begin hard-casting a spell instead of PoMing it.
#showtooltip Polymorph
/use Presence of Mind
/use Polymorph
/stopcasting
The logic here is simple. When you press the macro, it activates PoM and starts casting Polymorph. Due to lag, sometimes the client isn't aware that it can instant Polymorph and begins hard-casting it. In the event that this happens, the /stopcasting will immediately prevent that. When you hit it the 2nd time (or 3rd if your latency is particularly bad), the client is then aware that it can instant and the /stopcasting ceases to have any effect, since it cannot stop an instant cast.
