Paladin Focus Macro Guide

When you’re playing a paladin, you may not have as much of a need for focus macros as on your other characters, but a few focus macros will certainly help out, especially if you’re in a DPS role.  Paladin focus macros are also very helpful for crowd control.

If you are looking for macros for other classes make sure to check out our other WoW class macro guides, or for paladins specifically our paladin macro guide. That said here’s a quick paladin focus macro guide to get you started.

This first paladin focus macro is a great utility one to keep on hand.  If you right-click it, you’ll cast Exorcism on your target.  Left-click on it, and you’ll cast Exorcism on your focus instead.  Middle-click the macro, and your focus becomes your target and gets Exorcism cast on it.  You can easily change out the Exorcism spell to any other one you use heavily.  This macro will really help out when you find yourself battling two enemies at once.

Focus Exorcism Macro

#showtooltip Exorcism
/clearfocus [target=focus, dead][button:3]
/focus [button:1/3, target=focus, noexists]
/cast [button:1/3, target=focus][button:2] spell

This paladin focus macro allows you to cast Repentance on your focus without losing your primary target.  It’s the perfect crowd control macro when things get a little iffy.

Focus Repentance Macro

/cast [target=focus, exists] Repentance; Repentance

This paladin focus macro casts Hammer of Justice on your focus without losing your target. It’s another great crowd control macro to keep handy.

/clearfocus [target=focus, dead]
/cast [target=focus,exists,harm] Hammer of Justice (); Hammer of Justice ()

For a quick save of any raid member, this paladin focus macro casts Hand of Sacrifice on your focus target without stopping the attack on your current target.  It’s handyto bail out your healer in a pinch if the raid goes awry for a moment.

/cast [target=focus, exists] Hand of Sacrifice; Hand of Sacrifice

This paladin focus macro is perfect to use during raids.  It allows you to target the enemy closest to you, but switch quickly to your tank’s target if it’s different than the enemy closest to you.  You can easily customize this focus macro to cast any spell you want when you start the attack.  Just change Exorcism to your spell of choice.
