Priest Macros WoW Classic: Best Commands for Healing and Shadow
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ru
The priest is the primary healer in most WoW Classic raid compositions. On WowX5 x5 reaction speed in healing is critical: the right [@mouseover] and [@focus] macros let you heal without switching targets, saving precious seconds in key moments.
The [@mouseover] technique is the foundation of healing macros. Keep your cursor over an ally's frame and press the button — the heal goes to the right player without switching targets.
