Do you play a shadow priest? Well, in case you’re planning specialize on damage, here’s a very useful WoW priest macro for opening a combat session.

It’s a sequence macro that combines several of your spells that must remain on the target at all time, if possible. So, without wasting too much of your time, this WoW priest macro looks something like this:

#show
/castsequence reset=4 Vampiric Touch, Shadow Word: Pain, Vampiric Embrace

Once the target has these effects on it, you can continue with your castable spells like Mind Blast, Mind Flay etc. If you want to start a combat session with more damage, you can add “/use 13″ or “/use 14″, or both, in case you have 2 trinkets that don’t share the same cooldown.

Also, if you want to use this WoW priest macro in PvP, you can make a little modification to it, in case you want to use it on a melee target that will attack you.

#show
/castsequence [nomod] reset=4 Vampiric Touch, Shadow Word: Pain, Vampiric Embrace
/castsequence [mod:shift] reset=4 Vampiric Touch, Shadow Word: Pain, Vampiric Embrace, Psychic Horror

The second sequence also has Psychic Horror added, so if you push this WoW priest macro while you also press shift, you’ll be able to fear your opponent on the 4th hit.

The shift sequence of this WoW priest macro is useful if you’re fighting a melee class. By the time they reach you, you had already cast the first 3 spells and it’s time to fear them.

Hope this WoW priest macro helps. Also, here’s another useful post on WoW Priest Macros. May your enemies taste your shadow, whether they’re players or NPC’s!

If you play a paladin on Retribution spec, the following WoW pally macro might help, especially if you’re in a BG that requires capturing a flag. In this case, you’ll have to help the flag carrier, preventing the enemies to get to him or to slow him.

Since you won’t be having any great healing spells the best one to use is the Word of Glory. But due to the fact that you’ll be fighting the other players to slow them down, you’ll have to use a focus macro for the flag carrier. Needless to say, you’ll have to keep the one carrying the flag under your focus. If you don’t like to type in /focus or open the menu of that particular player, you can also make a button macro for the focus command.

Now, the WoW pally macro that I usually use to help the flag carrier looks something like this:

/castsequence [target=focus] reset=25 Hand of Freedom, Word of Glory

Every 25 seconds, when Hand of Freedom refreshes, by pushing this WoW pally macro twice, you will cast Hand of Freedom on the flag carrier, preventing them from being slowed down or rooted, and also cast a Word of Glory spell on them which by that time should be up and at 3 charges of Holy Power.

This WoW pally macro works nicely when you play BGs in a duo, with a friend.

Anyway, in case you want more than just a macro for paladins, like a tool that will allow you to unlock your pally’s maximum effectiveness, I strongly recommend you a WoW macros and keybindings addon. It will allow you to load up instantly, the macros and keybindings of the pros, and it will surely improve your gameplay.

I know that the Retribution specialization kinda sucks lately, being nerfed quite a couple of times, but on a one-on-one, a retribution paladin can use a very neat “I WIN” macro, burning quite a few coodowns for a super damage burst. A macro like this should work not only in duels, but in arena, battlegrounds or raids as well.

So, how does this WoW paladin macro look like?

Well, it’s very simple to make, just throw in all the major DPS cooldowns. It should look something like this.

 #show
/cast Zealotry
/cast Avenging Wrath
/cast Guardian of Ancient Kings
/use 13

This WoW paladin macro serves you best in a full DPS team, in arena. If all the players in your team agree to use a similar “burn” macro, this is the one you should use. In case you play in a more balanced team, in which players fulfill various roles, it’s best to keep the pally macro at hand, but also have each one of the cooldowns separately bound, in case you need to use them 1 by 1, for a sustained but lower damage boost.

Anyway, this is just one WoW paladin macro, and although it’s called an “I WIN” button, you won’t win all the time when you use it. To win almost every match in arena, it’s best to use a balanced keybinding. For that, I strongly recommend to work with a WoW macros and keybindings addon. You will find an elite one on the first page of this website.
