Protection Paladins excel at AoE threat and damage, but managing multiple abilities efficiently can be challenging. AoE rotation macros streamline your offensive cooldowns and rotational spells, ensuring maximum impact in pull and sustained multi-target encounters. These macros help you to effectively mitigate damage and maintain aggro across all targets.
This macro provides a basic one-button sequence for common AoE abilities, prioritizing Avenger's Shield, Hammer of the Righteous, and Consecration.

/castsequence [@cursor] Consecration; reset=4 Avenger's Shield, Hammer of the RighteousAoE rotation macros help Protection Paladins optimize their damage and threat generation in multi-target situations. They ensure key abilities are used efficiently, reducing the need for multiple keybinds and improving reaction time.
Essential spells for Protection Paladin AoE macros include Avenger's Shield, Hammer of the Righteous, and Consecration. You might also consider integrating Avenging Wrath or your covenant ability for burst damage.
While possible, it's generally recommended to keep defensive abilities on separate keybinds for greater control. However, some players include minor defensive cooldowns with a modifier key if their rotation allows.
