Blink casting twice on one button press

Noticed while playing my mage (with Shimmer talented) one middle-mouse button click will end up casting blink twice and eating up the 2 charges involuntarily, with a very small delay. Furthermore, changing the keybinding to any key on my keyboard also ends up double casting Blink so I can be sure it is not a faulty mouse.

Does anyone else experience this issue?

I did when I wasn’t used to shimmer and pressed my keybind a bit to fast.
I was used to panic pressing my Heroic Leap button, but Shimmer’s cast is way faster, this caused me to double blink all the time.

Issue got fixed when I chilled down with the spamming.
I have mine bound to G btw.

Yeah I’m not simply spamming the button and failing to notice, lol. I can replicate this bug just standing around in Stormwind.

What if you try this macro.

#showtooltip
/cast [mod] shimmer
/castsequence reset=1 shimmer,_

Quick google, Idk if it actually works.
I am at work so can’t test it myself, however I realise there are situations where you actually want to double blink and this macro prevents a 2nd blink untill it resets 1 sec after.

EDIT:
I editted the macro with a Modifier.
If you press it once It will blink once, it you hold it down it will use both blinks.

Thanks for your report Delrynn! Make sure to always report World of Warcraft issues using the in-game tools available to that effect, so your reports can reach the appropriate department.

Hey, I was having the same issue, not with my other mage tho, so I checked and then tried to UNLEARN the Arcane Momentum technique as it was the only difference between them and it seems it got the problem fixed so I suggest trying to unlearn that.
