These days playing a priest is rough…in PvE you have to compete with shaman’s spamming chain heal on the raid,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], paladin’s spamming holy light on the tank, and in PvP you’re constantly running and getting beat down but double melee gib teams.
Needless to say, it’s a rough life for priests. However, a few well placed macros can change all of that and give you an immediate edge on your opponents.
Raid Healing Priest Macros
I think of all the macros, this is probably the most simplistic and effective. It drives me crazy watching healer’s jump or move in order to cancel a heal. This is incredibly inefficient as you lose large amounts of overall healing time throughout the fight. Getting used to a system of stopcasting macros will allow you to turret up and let the heals fly, maximizing your available time to cast heals.
Power Word Shield Macro
Pretty simple, just cast a PWS on your self without ever having to drop target. Nice in the heat of an arena match or a raid encounter.
Dispel Macros
Generic quick target defensive dispel on your teammate.
Generic quick target offensive dispel, great for assisting your DPS classes to clear shields, buffs, etc.
Note: The above dispel macros were pulled from the more complete guide here,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], discipline priest arena strategy.
Mouse Over Healing Macros
Now, this method of healing may or may not work for you. For my shaman I found it ideal to manage raid healing, by using these macros in combination with a raid unit frame mod called grid (to the left is a screenshot of grid). This basically allowed me to mouse over any frame within the grid unit frame and fire on chain heals on my shaman. You could achieve the same result using the clique mod, but I prefer the macros
Rebuffing Macro
Requires multiple clicks, but will allow you to put all your buffing spells onto one bar. You can simply add any additional buffs you have based on racetalent spec (divine spirit for example) at the end of the macro, each requiring an additional click.
Trinket + Inner Fire + Devouring Plague Macro
#showtooltip Devouring Plague
Nice macro that further consolidates clicks and action bar use
Trinket + Healing Macro
For reference purposes 13 is top trinket, 14 is bottom trinket. These type of macros are a staple for every class and spec. Now, the trinket may determine weather or not you use this macro. Some trinkets shouldn’t be used until a given point (IE…spirit based regen trinkets shouldn’t be used the moment the fight begins). Conversely you could create a +healing trinket and circle of healing for raid spamming, since you’ll want it up as often as it can be used.
SilenceArcane Torrent Macro
A good friend of mine used this a ton when I played with him season 3. Once again, it won’t make or break you, but it’s certainly a nice way to free up some action bar space.
The DoT Bomb
Smart Shadowfiend
#showtooltip Shadowfiend
This macro will send your shadowfiend to attack your target if it’s hostile. If you do not have a hostile target currently targeted then it will send it after your target’s target if it is hostile.
