What it does

Sets your focus to the unit under your mouse cursor, or to your target when the cursor is on nothing. With Shift held it clears the focus instead.

How to use

Point at the enemy you want to crowd-control or interrupt (or the tank you want to assist) and press it. Every focus macro on this site then acts on that unit while you keep your own target.

Requirements

  • From level 1

Nothing beyond the spells in the macro.

How it works

  1. /clearfocus [mod:shift]
    • Clear your focusWhen:Shift is held
  2. /stopmacro [mod:shift]
    • Stop the macro here; the lines below don't runWhen:Shift is held
  3. /focus [@mouseover,exists][]
    • Option 1:Make it your focus · On: The unit under your mouse cursorWhen:It exists
    • Otherwise:Make it your focus

Limitations

  • The focus stays until you clear it or it disappears, for example when it dies and despawns.
