Enhancement Shaman PvP Useful Macros — Midnight Season 1
Macros are crucial to be successful in PvP. They allow players to use abilities on enemies without having to target them. This helps increase overall damage/healing and general awareness in the arena. Here are a few macros that all Enhancement Shamans can benefit from.
This page is part of our Enhancement Shaman PvP Guide.
Arena Targeting
Arena Target 1 Macro
This macro allows you to target each of the enemy team players without clicking with your mouse. This is a more efficient method of changing targets. You should replace "arena1" with "arena2" and "arena3" for subsequent macros.
Arena Target Interrupts
Interupt Arena Target Macro
This macro will use your
Wind Shear interrupt on
the specific enemy team player without changing targets. Again, replace
"arena1" with the desired enemy.
Targeting Teammates and Self
Target Party 1 Macro
As the following macro works like the enemy targeting macros above. To target your teammates insert "party1" or "party2"; to target yourself, replace with "player".
Earth Shield Friend Macro
Earthshield Party Macro
If you select the
Earth Shield talent, you want a way to easily
apply this ability to your teammates without having to switch targets or
click their nameplates. The below options for this macro should allow you
to maintain a high uptime on Earth Shield and maximize one of the best
Shaman utilities for their team.
Earthshield Party1 Macro
Alternatively, you can make the macro target the generic party members, as used in earlier friendly team targeting macros.
Healing Teammates
This is for healing teammates without having to switch targets. We use macros for targets specifically by their name to make sure we heal the correct target without a doubt. This approach is more precise but takes time to maintain the macro if you play with various players.
Healing Surge Party Macro
Alternatively, you can make the macro target the generic party members, as used in earlier friendly team targeting macros.
Hex 123 Macro
Arena Target123 Hex Macro
Using this macro will cast
Hex on arena enemy 1.
This makes it easier to crowd-control an enemy while staying focused on
your target. If you want macros for the second and third enemies,
simply change the arena1 to arena2 or arena3.
Hex Focus Macro
Focus Hex Macro
If you find that you do not have much room on your action bars, you
can use a focus macro. This is much simpler to use than the arena123
macro. Put an enemy on focus, and this macro will cast
Polymorph
on that player while you are still focused on your target.
Cleanse Spirit Macro
Cleanse Spirit Party Macro
This macro will use
Cleanse Spirit on whichever teammate
you put into the macro. It is recommended that you make a macro
for both of your teammates.
Purge Focus Macro
Focus Purge Macro
This macro uses
Purge on any enemy you have as your focus target.
This is useful for Purging important buffs on one enemy while still targeting
the other. If you take
Greater Purge, replace 'Purge' with 'Greater Purge'
Cursor Macros
These macros are great for quickly placing totems, instead of clicking it to activate the placement icon and then clicking to place it. The totem will be placed wherever your cursor is.
Earthgrab Totem Macro
