WOW FOREVER · FOR EVERY CLASS

Macro guide

Focus, manual stop commands and item macros reduce target swaps and clicks. Each racial belongs to a race; passive perks need no macro. Check the tournament's consumable and item rules before using them.

Why macros matter

In PvP, every target swap and click takes attention. A macro combines several commands into one key and lets you choose who gets the spell: the enemy under your cursor, your focus or yourself. You react in fewer steps and make fewer mistakes while moving and watching your opponent.

Control without losing your target

Interrupt, CC or dispel your focus or the enemy under your cursor without dropping your damage target. Skip the target, cast and retarget routine.

Heal without dropping your enemy

Hover over a party frame to heal an ally without changing targets; hold Alt to heal yourself.

React in time

CC macros start by stopping your current cast, so the control goes out when you press the button.

Keep channels running

Drain and channel macros won't restart the channel if you accidentally press them again.

What to expect

They don't increase damage on their own or make decisions for you. They don't bypass the global cooldown, range, mana or talent requirements. Some stop casts or have specific conditions: read each explanation and practice before competing. Their length has been checked (255 characters), but they haven't been tested in the client.

How to read each macro

Every macro in this guide follows the same pattern, so each one only needs a few short labels:

NormalThe enemy under your cursor or, if there isn't one, your target.
ShiftYour focus. Does nothing without a living enemy focus.
AltYourself, for heals and dispels.
Hover over a frameThe ally in that frame, without changing your damage target.

Shift needs a focus: use the shared Set focus / Alt clear macro.

How to create a macro
  1. Type /macro in chat (or Esc → Macros) and click New.
  2. Give it a name and choose the ? icon: #showtooltip will display the spell's icon.
  3. Paste the text using “Copy macro” and drag it onto your action bar.
  4. In Options → Keybindings, check that Shift, Ctrl and Alt aren't assigned to another action on those keys.
  5. The client is in English: don't translate spell names.
Shared macros for every class
Set focus / Alt clear

Hover over a unit or select one. Alt clears your focus. Keep a focus for Shift macros.

Mouseover: ally or unitAlt: alternative

/clearfocus [mod:alt]
/focus [nomod,@mouseover,exists,nodead][nomod,exists,nodead]
Return to your last enemy

Returns to your last enemy target. Doesn't automatically pick the most dangerous one.

/targetlastenemy
Stop casting and attacking

Manual stop button to avoid attacking a CC'd target or to cancel a cast. Doesn't remove damage-over-time effects already applied.

Stops your cast

/stopcasting
/stopattack
Top trinket / Shift bottom

13 and 14 are your two trinket slots. Only activates an item with an available on-use effect; it doesn't decide when to break CC or bypass its requirements.

Shift/Ctrl: variant

#showtooltip
/use [mod:shift] 14; 13
Bandage an ally / Alt yourself

You need to know Heavy Silk Bandage and have one in your bags. Alt targets you; normal targets a living mouseover ally, your selected ally or yourself. Damage or actions can interrupt it; respect Recently Bandaged and the rules for your activity.
