FAQ

What are the most important abilities to macro as a Retribution Paladin?

Key abilities for Retribution Paladins to macro include burst cooldowns like Avenging Wrath and Seraphim, defensive abilities such as Divine Protection and Word of Glory, and utility spells like Hammer of Justice and Cleanse. Macroing these improves response time and reduces the chance of miscasting.

How can I combine multiple Retribution Paladin abilities into one macro?

You can combine abilities using /castsequence for sequential abilities or simple /cast commands for abilities that share a global cooldown or can be cast simultaneously. Be mindful of the global cooldown (GCD) when combining spells, as most offensive abilities will trigger it.

Why is a mouseover macro useful for Retribution Paladins?
