Focus and Arena Macros

These macros follow the same idea as party macros and eliminate the need to manually change targets every time. They are very useful for CC and interrupts. While focus macros are easier to get used to and could be sufficient in most cases, arena macros are a lot more versatile as they allow you to interact with literally any opponent in the game at any point. The downside of making arena macros is the number of binds you will have to allocate. Not to mention, they are a lot more difficult to get used to. You could start by using focus macros for most of your abilities and arena macros for some of the most important CC, and expand the more you get used to it. As a Warlock, the spells that benefit the most from such macros are Fear, Spell Lock, Mortal Coil, and all Curses aside from Curse of Agony.

Soulburn Macros

As an Affliction Warlock, you’re most likely familiar with Soulburn being an integral part of our utility and survivability. To make your rotation feel more fluid, we highly recommend using our Soulburn macros featured below. These macros combine Soulburn with some of our most useful spells that benefit off of it, including, but not limited to: Demonic Healthstone, Demonic Circle: Teleport, and Demonic Gateway.

#showtooltip Demonic Healthstone
/cast Soulburn
/use Demonic Healthstone

#showtooltip Demonic Circle: Teleport
/cast Soulburn
/use Demonic Circle: Teleport

#showtooltip Demonic Gateway
/cast Soulburn
/use Demonic Gateway

Amplify Curse Macros

If you end up selecting Amplify Curse in our Warlock tree, you’ll definitely want to utilize our suggested macros that are tied to this ability. By using these, Amplify Curse is combined with our primary Curse spells, aside from Curse of Agony, to minimize bind space on your action bar. These also avoid cases where you may accidentally use a curse you want to apply before amplifying it.

Curse of Tongues

#showtooltip Curse of Tongues
/cast Amplify Curse
/cast Curse of tongues

Curse of Exhaustion

#showtooltip Curse of Exhaustion
/cast Amplify Curse
/cast Curse of Exhaustion

Curse of Weakness

#showtooltip Curse of Weakness
/cast Amplify Curse
/cast Curse of weakness

Spell Lock Macro

And if you want to make some flashy plays by double Spell Lock, you’ll definitely want to use this macro. In most cases, you will be sacrificing your pet, giving you free reign on interrupting casts as long as you aren’t in Crowd Control, and the target you want to interrupt is in your line of sight.

If you resummon your pet with Fel Domination to interrupt again with your pet, you’ll want to use Command Demon instead. Even though its a bit confusing, it’s important to understand that you have two different spells that inherently do the exact same thing. You’ll be using our Spell Lock ability when your pet is sacrificed, and Command Demon to interrupt from your Felhunter pet.
