Why should I use defensive macros as a Preservation Evoker?
Defensive macros help you quickly activate multiple protective abilities, reducing your reaction time during critical moments. This ensures you survive burst damage and continue to heal your group effectively.
Can I combine all my defensive cooldowns into one macro?
While you can technically combine many abilities, it's often not optimal for defensives. Prioritizing abilities based on the threat level and cooldowns allows for more strategic and efficient mitigation, avoiding situations where you burn all your defenses unnecessarily.
How do I ensure my defensive macros target the correct person?
For self-target abilities like Renewing Blaze or Obsidian Skin, [@player] ensures the spell is cast on you. For abilities that can target others, like Cauterizing Flame, smart usage with mouseover or focus macros can be beneficial but are often best managed with individual keybinds for precise control.
