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 Rogue, the spells that benefit the most from such macros are Gouge, Shadowstep, Kick, Kidney Shot, Blind, Dismantle, and Cheap Shot.

Not to mention, you can combine Shadowstep with Kick or Kidney Shot to immediately control enemy targets with a single button press.

In case you do find yourself selecting Tricks of the Trade as one of our PvP talents, we highly suggesting using party1 and party2 macros to further streamline your rotation. If you’re unfamiliar with these, “party 1” refers to the person at the top of your party frames, and “party 2” is the second person. The basic way of doing this using two macros for each ability as featured below.

You will definitely want the iconic Sap macro. This is useful in various aspects of PvP, especially in arena against other Stealth classes. By spamming this, you will have the option to quickly Sap enemy players out of their invisibility.

/cast Sap

Another useful macro is the Stealth macro, which will allow you to spam Stealth keybind without instantly cancelling your invisibility.

#showtooltip
/cast !Stealth

If you are playing a Night Elf, you can make a macro to Stealth immediately after Shadowmeld, turning your racial ability into a similar version of Vanish.

/cast Shadowmeld
/cast Stealth
