Hi to all my fellow paladins.
I have been searching/googling macro for divine shield, divine sacrifice but every macro i tried doesn't seems to work
Example:
/castsequence reset=1.5 Divine Shield, Divine Sacrifice
every macro i tried, only divine shield will be activated.
just want to find out if there's anyone good with macro, and may help me with this.

Just FYI - "reset=1.5" is probably where the problem lies.

You realize you have to hit the button twice, right?
Add #showtooltip above that line in order to see when the GCD is up, so you can hit it again.

What this macro does is that first click is Divine Shield, next click should be Divine Sacrifice; the reset=1.5 makes it reset when the GCD from Divine Shield just ticks out.
The reset=1.5 only counts from when you last click the button. If he spams it, it won't reset before DiSac is up.

Testing the macro with reset=1.5 it would reset before even half the GCD was over, probably thanks to latency.
So reset 1.5 isn't a good idea unless you plan to
really
spam the button.
Testing it with reset=3, i get the error message "can't do that yet" when it comes to DiSac.
Stealth nerf perhaps? DiSac not working when under the effect of forbearance?
Hmm, doesn't seem to be the case though, can't even trigger DiSac after forbearance has faded.
I only get the "You can't do that" message when trying to cast DiSac.
Not even when the cooldown on DS has passed was i able to use DiSac.
Can't even use DiSac after logging out -.- Yay!
Well seems like i can't help you atleast -.-
The macros suggested should work though.

Out of curiosity, why do you need to Divine Shield for Divine Sacrifice?
#showtooltip Divine Sacrifice
/cancelaura Divine Sacrifice
/cast Divine Sacrifice
Click that twice and it'll remove the Divine Sacrifice part of the spell (the part that hurts you), and keep the 20% reduction on the entire raid. That way, you can save your Divine Shield for either Hand of Sacrifice, or save yourself from something that would kill you.
The ONLY time I bubble before using it is on Blood Queen air phase, because I bubble to get out of the fear and position myself, anyway (along with mitigating damage from the AoE). The 30% really isn't something that you need, and it just wastes your bubble.

Why can't you just use 2 buttons instead of 1 button you need to hit twice? This macro isn't exactly required, you can just use both buttons. It's not brain surgery, its hitting one button then hitting the other button.
IMO macros are only really important if you need it due to mechanics of abilities, such as the macro for righteous defense to be able to use it while targeting mobs instead of other players.

Were you in a party? Because I forgot to do that once.

Macro should work, just make the reset time a lot longer.
@swirve
Did you test the macro on your own? You can't cast DiSac outside of party/raid group.
That makes so much sense, yet I never considered it. If I were to test it, it wouldn't have occured to me until after much headbashing, I don't think.

Wait... does this seriously work?
It seems like a fairly big bug in the ability if you can do the damage reduction without it being funneled to you. You'd think blizzard might've noticed and fixed that.
There's two effects. You don't get to keep the 30% transfer from your party, so you are giving up the specific effect which gives that reduction. The 20% is just a bonus that's unrelated.
