Interface

There are a few important things you need to track as a Protection Paladin. Shield of the Righteous duration, Consecration duration, Shining Light stacks, Divine Guidance stacks, Sacred Weapon uptime and your holy power. Make sure all of these are visible and easily noticeable on your UI so you know when to refresh or react to them accordingly.

Macros

Note - you should place a @cursor Modifier into your macro whenever you want an ability to be placed at your cursor location as soon as you press the keybind, makes the gameplay feel smoother. Additionally, you can also do this for @mouseover an example being the macro below.

Blessing of Protection Mouseover Macro

Divine shield macro which will both cast it and cancel it

Just a note, this macro will also cancel Blessing of Protection as you will have Forbearance so it will not cast Divine Shield during this time.

This macro will allow you to resurrect an ally on mouseover.

#showtooltip Redemption
/cast [@mouseover, help] Redemption;

Mouseover Intercession

This macro will allow you to cast your battle res on mouseover.

#showtooltip Intercession
/cast [@mouseover, help] Intercession;

Cancelaura Blessing of Protection/Divine Shield

This macro will cancel your Blessing of Protection or Divine Shield, which may be very useful in many situations - for example when using BoP to remove a bleed from yourself.

#showtooltip Blessing of Protection
/cancelaura Blessing of Protection
/cancelaura Divine Shield

Focus Avenger’s Shield

This is a very important macro to be able to solo interrupt an important caster in the pack.
