What's the mod that...

[Taffie]

Lets say we're in 2v2 vs a Warrior/Paladin. My warrior is on their warrior, im cyclone spamming/bear charging/etc their healer.

What is an addon that will cast "defensive" spells (healing spells) on my target (which would be the warrior) but offensive spells (cyclone, bear charge, etc) on my "offtarget" (the healer).

Anyone know what this is called/how to set it up? I've seen quite a few mages with it so that they can focus on someone while silencing the healer at the same time.

its not really an addon, you need to get a unit frame addon (such as perl/xperl/pitbull) that puts a focus frame on your screen, now macro the abilities you want to use on that person (the one your focusing, type /focus on a person to put them onto that screen) an example of a focus macro: /cast [target=focus] Cyclone

they can also get quite complicated: #showToolTip Counterspell
/stopcasting
/cast [target=focus,exists,harm,nodead] Counterspell; [harm] Counterspell

so, you enter the arena, focus the target you want to cyclone, roots, feral charge ect via /focus (you can bind a macro that is simply /focus) and then target your warrior, you can heal him and now with the macros you made cyclone/entangling/FC on the other target without losing your main target

Awsome, thanks :)

So lets say that I don't have a focus. Would the /cast [target=focus] Cyclone cast on my target instead?

How would I make a macro for, lets say, bear charge? Like, if I'm in bear and I press 3 (feral charge) it charges my target, but if I press shift + 3 it charges my focus?

Thanks =]

you can add modifiers to the macro to make it do different things, to be honest, ive never made an alt/shift modified macro, i simply make two different macros and bind them to _ and shift/alt+_

this can be done with modifiers aswell, /cast [target=focus,exists,harm,nodead] Cyclone; Cyclone will make it so if you have a focus target that exists, is an enemy, and isn't dead, it will cyclone that target, and if there is no focus or it is dead/ friendly, it will cyclone your main target instead.
