FAQ

Why is a focus interrupt important for a Subtlety Rogue?

A focus interrupt allows you to stop a critical enemy cast while maintaining your primary offensive target. This is especially useful in PvP to control healers or dangerous damage dealers without breaking your current combat flow.

How do mouseover macros improve interrupt timing?

Mouseover macros enable faster reaction times by letting you interrupt a target without clicking on them first. You simply hover your cursor over the enemy unit frame or character model and use the macro.

Can I combine multiple interrupt conditions into one macro?

Yes, you can create macros that prioritize targets. For example, you can have a macro that attempts to Kick your mouseover target, and if no mouseover is present, it will Kick your current target.
