Look at the elements of the flourishes as small flourishes in themselves. Watch the hand and foot positions for similar positions in the base and in other dances' flourishes.

Only by changing to another dance.


for example...i LOVE the beginning to basic/flourish 2...but the ending kills my desire to EVER use it.....


is there anyway to change to a new flourish in the middle of that flourish?


maybe if i have to change to an entire new dance to do so?


i tried shortening the pause in my test-macro...but it didnt work

Keep in mind that timing for the flourishes will vary with server lag and "user lag". That's why you saw that 11 seconds worked once, didn't work the next time, and then worked again. Also, you don't have to use whole numbers for your pauses. You may find that a pause of 11.5 works more consistently for example. Using the dance cards as a starting point (or any one else's timings) will help a lot especially if you tend to have fluctuating lag (as I do). I found it's much easier to tweak the numbers that have been found to work than try to start from scratch.

Not that I ever use it, but it seems to work...


/flo #;


/pause .5;


/flo #;


/pause .5;


/flo #;


/pause .5;


Seems to cover all bases, if you add the appropriate pause in there. (I.E. /pause 5.5-1.5(4.0)for breakdance flo 1, as per the above example by Coreena.) If they are spaced well, then they seem never to bother post CU on the action. I don't use them often. But sometimes the phone rings, and I have one on ready... That way, usually one goes off, and I see it seamless. (Do they? I dunno.)


Mind you, this is not AFK junk. Just Nommi needs to leave for a few kinda stuff. Likely it looks bad after about 5 mins.
