FAQ

Why should I macro defensive cooldowns?

Macroing defensive cooldowns streamlines their use, allowing for faster reaction times and more effective layering of damage reduction abilities. This can be critical in high-pressure situations, improving your survivability.

Can I combine all defensive abilities into one macro?

While you can combine multiple abilities, it's often not optimal for all defensives to be on a single button due to varying cooldowns and situational uses. Prioritize combining abilities that complement each other or are used in sequence.

What is the benefit of [@cursor] for Darkness?

Using [@cursor] with Darkness allows you to instantly cast the ability at your mouse cursor's location, eliminating the need for a second click. This saves valuable reaction time, placing the defensive effect precisely where you need it.
