Arena Targeting Macros

Arena Targeting Macros

Although there are certain spells that should innately have arena 1-3, I would still recommend having target & focus arena 1-3 macros as to facilitate setting and switching focus. With spells like displacer beast and spectral guise being added to Mist of Pandaria, it has become increasingly difficult to keep a focus target.

Macros for targeting enemy players

Press macro to target, add any modifier plus macro to focus

Arena target & focus
/focus [mod,@arena1][] %f
/target [nomod,@arena1][] %t

Arena target & focus 2
/focus [mod,@arena2][] %f
/target [nomod,@arena2][] %t

Arena Target & focus 3
/focus [mod,@arena3][] %f
/target [nomod,@arena3][] %t

Macros for targeting friendly players

Add /target  and the name of your toon and your teammates. Examples:

Self
/target stormclaw

Healer
/target frunkyup

Dps
/target xpekted
