Paladin Macros WoW Classic: Blessings, Healing and Judgements
The paladin is the Alliance's unique buffing and healing class: best buffs in the game (Blessing of Kings, Wisdom, Salvation), powerful healing and holy damage. On WowX5 x5 the paladin holds key blessings for all raid groups and heals the tank.
Blessing of Wisdom (mana regen) — priority for casters and healers. Blessing of Kings (+10% stats, a Protection talent) — for everyone who doesn't benefit from a more specific buff. Remember: each paladin can keep only one blessing on a given player, so in raids blessings are split between several paladins.
The 1.12.1 client has no bracket conditionals (modifier conditions like mod:shift or unit conditions like @target). Modifiers and mouseover are done with /script and the Lua functions IsShiftKeyDown(), CastSpellByName(), TargetUnit(). A macro is limited to 255 characters.

Blessing Macros
In 1.12.1 Greater Blessings are separate spells learned at level 60 (Greater Blessing of Might — at 52): they last 15 minutes on all party or raid members of the target's class and consume a Symbol of Kings reagent (sold by reagent vendors).
Greater Blessing of KingsRank 1150 Mana40 yd rangeInstantReagent: Symbol of KingsAll party or raid members of the target's class get +10% to all stats for 15 min. Requires the Blessing of Kings talent.
Greater Blessing of WisdomRank 2250 Mana40 yd rangeInstantReagent: Symbol of KingsAll party or raid members of the target's class restore 33 mana every 5 sec for 15 min.
Greater Blessing of SalvationRank 1Instant40 yd rangeReagent: Symbol of KingsAll party or raid members of the target's class generate 30% less threat for 15 min.Blessing of Kings — Single / Class
| Modifier | Action |
|---|---|
| No Shift | Blessing of Kings (one player, 5 min) |
| Shift | Greater Blessing of Kings (whole class in party/raid, 15 min) |
/script if IsShiftKeyDown() then CastSpellByName("Greater Blessing of Kings") else CastSpellByName("Blessing of Kings") endBlessing of Wisdom
/script if IsShiftKeyDown() then CastSpellByName("Greater Blessing of Wisdom") else CastSpellByName("Blessing of Wisdom") endBlessing of Salvation (for high-threat DPS)
/script if IsShiftKeyDown() then CastSpellByName("Greater Blessing of Salvation") else CastSpellByName("Blessing of Salvation") endA macro like /cast Blessing of Kings + /cast Blessing of Wisdom does not refresh both buffs: both spells are on the global cooldown (only the first one fires), and a second blessing from the same paladin would replace the first anyway. Use the PallyPower addon (1.12 version available) to assign blessings per class between raid paladins.
Healing Macros (Holy Paladin)
Flash of LightRank 6140 Mana40 yd range1.5 sec castHeals a friendly target for 348 to 389.
Holy LightRank 9660 Mana40 yd range2.5 sec castHeals a friendly target for 1590 to 1770.Lay on HandsRank 3Instant40 yd range1 hour cooldownHeals a friendly target for an amount equal to the Paladin's maximum health and restores 550 of their mana. Drains all of the Paladin's remaining mana.Flash of Light on Mouseover
Mouseover emulation for 1.12.1: if a friendly unit is under the cursor, the macro targets it, casts the spell and restores your previous target.
/script if UnitExists("mouseover") and UnitIsFriend("player","mouseover") then TargetUnit("mouseover") CastSpellByName("Flash of Light") TargetLastTarget() else CastSpellByName("Flash of Light") endHoly Light on Mouseover
/script if UnitExists("mouseover") and UnitIsFriend("player","mouseover") then TargetUnit("mouseover") CastSpellByName("Holy Light") TargetLastTarget() else CastSpellByName("Holy Light") endLay on Hands (Emergency Full Heal)
/script if UnitExists("mouseover") and UnitIsFriend("player","mouseover") then TargetUnit("mouseover") CastSpellByName("Lay on Hands") TargetLastTarget() else CastSpellByName("Lay on Hands") endLay on Hands has a 1-hour cooldown and drains all of your mana. Use only in a critical situation where the tank is dying and no other save is available.
◆Judgements and Seals
Judgement unleashes the energy of your active Seal on an enemy (10 yd range, 10 sec cooldown) and consumes the Seal.
JudgementRank 1Instant10 yd range10 sec cooldownUnleashes the energy of a Seal spell upon an enemy. Refer to individual Seals for the Judgement effect.
Seal of RighteousnessRank 8200 ManaInstantFor 30 sec each melee attack deals additional Holy damage. Judging this Seal deals Holy damage to the enemy.
Seal of WisdomRank 3200 ManaInstantMelee attacks have a chance to restore the Paladin's mana. Its Judgement lasts 10 sec and gives attacks and spells against the target a chance to restore 59 mana to the attacker.Judgement + Seal of Righteousness (max DPS)
Judgement does not trigger the global cooldown, so both lines fire on one press: Judgement consumes the Seal, then the Seal is re-applied. The first press without an active Seal simply applies the Seal.
/cast Judgement
/cast Seal of RighteousnessJudgement + Seal of Wisdom (mana return for the group)
/cast Judgement
/cast Seal of WisdomSwitch between Judgement of Wisdom (attacks and spells on the target return mana to attackers — great on long fights) and Judgement of Righteousness (maximum damage) based on the fight situation.
Seal Toggle by Modifier
Shift — Seal of Wisdom, no modifier — Seal of Righteousness; keep Judgement on a separate button.
/script if IsShiftKeyDown() then CastSpellByName("Seal of Wisdom") else CastSpellByName("Seal of Righteousness") endDefensive Macros
Divine Shield (Emergency Protection)
Immunity to all damage and spells for 12 sec, 5 min cooldown.
/cast Divine ShieldHammer of Justice (Stun, Interrupts Casts)
Stuns the target for 6 sec (10 yd range, 1 min cooldown) — the stun interrupts enemy casts.
/cast Hammer of JusticeAura Toggle
Shift — Fire Resistance Aura, Ctrl — Shadow Resistance Aura, no modifier — Devotion Aura.
/script local c=CastSpellByName if IsShiftKeyDown() then c("Fire Resistance Aura") elseif IsControlKeyDown() then c("Shadow Resistance Aura") else c("Devotion Aura") end◆Cleanse (Dispel)
Remove Poison/Disease/Magic on Mouseover
/script if UnitExists("mouseover") and UnitIsFriend("player","mouseover") then TargetUnit("mouseover") CastSpellByName("Cleanse") TargetLastTarget() else CastSpellByName("Cleanse") endPaladin Cleanse removes 1 poison, 1 disease and 1 magic effect per cast — one of the best dispels in the game.

FAQ
?How to switch between Blessing of Kings and Greater Blessing of Kings with one button?
The 1.12.1 client has no bracket modifier conditionals, so use /script: if IsShiftKeyDown() then CastSpellByName('Greater Blessing of Kings') else CastSpellByName('Blessing of Kings') end. With Shift you cast the Greater Blessing (all party or raid members of the target's class, 15 min, reagent Symbol of Kings), without Shift the regular 5-minute blessing on one player.
?How does a paladin heal with mouseover in Classic 1.12.1?
There is no bracket mouseover conditional in 1.12.1. A /script workaround works: if a friendly unit is under the cursor, the macro targets it with TargetUnit('mouseover'), casts Flash of Light and restores your previous target with TargetLastTarget(). For comfortable mouseover healing use the Clique or pfUI addons.
?What is a paladin Judgement and how to macro it?
Judgement unleashes the energy of your active Seal on an enemy and consumes the Seal, so it must be cast again. Judgement does not trigger the global cooldown, so a two-line macro /cast Judgement and /cast Seal of Righteousness judges and immediately re-applies the Seal with a single press.
