Frost Mage PvP Useful Macros — The War Within (Season 1)

Last updated on Sep 09, 2024 at 18:00 by Mysticall 17 comments

Macros are crucial to be successful in PvP. They allow players to use abilities on enemies without having to target them. You can also do things like stopping enemy damage, or even some more utility based Macros. This helps increase overall damage/healing and general awareness in the arena. Here are a few macros that all Frost Mages can benefit from.

This page is part of our Frost Mage PvP Guide.

1.

Polymorph 123 Macro

  • #showtooltip Polymorph
  • /cast [target=arena1] Polymorph

Using this macro will cast Polymorph Icon Polymorph 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.

2.

Polymorph Focus Macro

  • #showtooltip Polymorph
  • /cast [target=focus] Polymorph

If you find that you do not have much room on your actionbars, 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 Icon Polymorph on that player while you are still focused on your target.

3.

Counterspell Focus Macro

  • #showtooltip Counterspell
  • /cast [target=focus] Counterspell

This macro will use Counterspell Icon Counterspell on whichever enemy you have on focus. Because you will be primarily using Counterspell Icon Counterspell on the enemy healer, you should only need this focus macro.

4.

Counterspell 123 Macro

  • #showtooltip Counterspell
  • /cast [target=arena1] Counterspell

Using this macro will cast Counterspell Icon Counterspell on arena enemy 1. This makes it easier to kick 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.

5.

Ice Block Macro

  • #showtooltip Ice Block
  • /cast !Ice Block

This makes it so when you use Ice Block Icon Ice Block, it will not cancel it if you click it a second time.

6.

Cancel Alter Time Macro

  • #showtooltip Alter Time
  • /cancelaura Alter Time

You can use this macro to cancel Alter Time Icon Alter Time if you do not want to be teleported back to the location and health you were at when Alter Time Icon Alter Time was cast.
