Interface

In the Midnight Pre-Patch a lot of addons are unable to do as much as they could before. You will need to use more of the default UI, with some customisation options being offered by addons.

When the best addons to use become clearer, we will update this guide section!

Macros

Breath of Sindragosa

#showtooltip Breath of Sindragosa
/cast Pillar of Frost
/cast Frostwyrm's Fury
/cast !Breath of Sindragosa
/cast Blood Fury
/cast Berserking
/cast Raise Dead
/cast Ancestral Call
/use 13

This is a simple macro that uses all of your abilities together for your Breath of Sindragosa Window. Keep in mind this macro will use the trinket in your first trinket slot, you can change the last line to “/use 14” if you put your on use trinkets in the second trinket slot. Makes your life a lot easier when using all of your cooldowns.

Pillar of Frost

#showtooltip
/cast Pillar of Frost
/cast Frostwyrm's Fury
/cast Blood Fury
/cast Berserking
/cast Raise Dead
/cast Ancestral Call
/use 13

Just like the Breath of Sindragosa macro, this is a simple macro that uses your trinket and racial ability with your Pillar of Frost. Keep in mind this macro will use the trinket in your first trinket slot, you can change the last line to “/use 14” if you put your on use trinkets in the second trinket slot.

Stop Attack Death Grip

#showtooltip Death Grip
/stopattack
/cast [@mouseover,exists,harm][@target,exists,harm] Death Grip

This acts as a mouseover/current target Death Grip macro, but it also cancels your attacks against that target if you have it selected. This is useful if you want to grip an add that is already CC’d. Death Grip does not break CC, but auto attacks do, so this macro negates that problem.

Cursor Macros

Cursor macros are used for abilities that generally have to be placed on the ground. This macro makes you place the abilities a lot faster and less clunky, but do pay attention to where your cursor is when using these macros.

Anti-Magic Zone

#showtooltip
/cqs
/cast [@cursor] Anti-Magic Zone

Death and Decay

#showtooltip
/cast [@cursor] Death and Decay

Mouseover Macros

Mouseover Macros are similar to Cursor macros, in the sense that they will use the ability that is in the macro, on a target that your cursor is over. I have mine set up, so if you have a target and are not putting your cursor over any other enemies, the ability will cast on your current target. If you have your cursor over a different target, the ability will be used on that target instead of your current target.

Howling Blast

#showtooltip Howling Blast
/cast [@mouseover,exists,harm][@target,exists,harm] Howling Blast

Chains of Ice

#showtooltip Chains of Ice
/cast [@mouseover,exists,harm][@target,exists,harm] Chains of Ice

Raise Ally (Combat Res)

#showtooltip Raise Ally
/cast [@mouseover,help][@target]Raise Ally

Dark Command / Taunt

#showtooltip Dark Command
/cast [@mouseover,exists,harm][@target,exists,harm] Dark Command

Other Quality of Life Macros

Pet Dismiss

/script PetDismiss()

Focus Mind Freeze

#showtooltip Mind Freeze
/cast [@focus] Mind Freeze
