Anyone else having troubles?? Its been this way since beta and still no improvement.
Sometimes I press a key and it keeps casting, sometimes it doesnt… Seems like a 50/50 chance. For anyone wondering why I care about this. → Arthritis ←

Yeah… It’s not great, Sometimes it plays worse on evokers compared to other casters though.
Evokers are just buggy in general.
I think it might have something to do with spells that have a cast time but can occasionally become instant personally, but I haven’t tested it on any melee with a spamable filler like prot or havoc
I can make it work with a script, but it changes how the game plays and isnt officially supported. just changes it from cast on release to cast on press.
Arthritic pain keeps me from enjoying the game like I would like.
Not my specific problem but I broke my thumb as a teenager and it’s ‘tricky’ now sometimes getting stuck in a position… which, as a healer, leads to players dying. I do a lot of cast on release and probably need to change that up.
Yea I use addon that allows cast on press. Still hit and miss. 
In my experience, if you double tap the key, even slightly, it’ll release at 1 charge regardless of if you’re still holding it.
Same with the other option.
There is a lot blizzard could do to make rotations more chill but they don’t. They are very afraid of someone finding a way to just hold down a button to do max dps. Honestly I think they should risk it more. Rotations will never be the fun part of wow. Mastering dungeons and raid encounters is what makes the game fun imo.
Not shure what you mean by risk more. The push and hold does not work with macros. But for classes where you may have a spender spell (like death coil on my death knight), it really helps. When it works, which is the problem. I have had raids where it didnt glitch at all and then some where it never worked. IMHO its not about making the game easier, but more access able to people with movement disabilities/challenges in their hands and fingers.
Tried it with using On Key Down and the default On Key Up. On Key Up never works at all. At least for me.
What I think is happening is if you press the key down before the Global Cooldown has passed on the previous spell, it does not seem to register. Either way, wished blizz would just get it working reliably.
wym? Are you a clicker?
If so, buy a mmomouse.
No not a clicker. I use KB for all attacks… Mouse only for moving.
