FAQ

Why use a mouseover interrupt?

A mouseover interrupt allows you to stop an enemy cast without changing your current target. This is highly efficient for maintaining damage on one target while controlling another.

What is the benefit of a focus interrupt?

A focus interrupt lets you designate a secondary target to control, independent of your main target. This is particularly useful in PvP or encounters with multiple priority enemies.

Can I combine multiple interrupt conditions into one macro?

Yes, you can combine conditions like mouseover, focus, and current target into a single macro. The game processes conditions from left to right, using the first one that is met.
