Hex (Focus)

Hexes your focus, falling through to your mouseover and then your target. Hex breaks on damage, so it belongs on a unit nobody is attacking.

Where to paste this

Type /macro (or press Esc → Macros) to open the macro window.
Choose "General Macros" to share the macro across all characters, or "<Character> Specific Macros" to keep it on one character.
Click New, pick an icon — the "?" icon plus #showtooltip makes the button mirror whatever spell it will cast — and name the macro.
Paste the macro body into the text area, then drag the macro icon onto an action bar.
Bind the action bar slot to a key as usual; the macro fires on key press.

More WoW macros

Shaman macros first, then the rest of the WoW library.

Bloodlust with Announce
Shaman
```
#showtooltip Bloodlust
/cast Bloodlust
/raid Bloodlust is up
```
Casts your haste cooldown and tells the group, so a second Shaman or Mage does not overlap theirs. Horde Shamans should swap Heroism for Bloodlust.
Capacitor Totem (Cursor)
Shaman
```
#showtooltip Capacitor Totem
/cast [@cursor] Capacitor Totem
```
Puts the stun totem exactly where the pack will be. Capacitor takes a few seconds to charge, so leading the enemy with it is the difference between a stun and nothing.
Chain Heal (Mouseover)
Shaman
```
#showtooltip Chain Heal
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][help][@player] Chain Heal
```
Chain Heal bounces outward from whoever you cast it on, so choosing the right starting point is most of the spell. A mouseover bind lets you pick without a target swap.
Cleanse Spirit (Mouseover)
Shaman
```
#showtooltip Cleanse Spirit
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][help][@player] Cleanse Spirit
```
Dispels a curse from a hovered ally. Restoration should swap the name to Purify Spirit for the extra magic dispel.
Earth Shield (Mouseover)
Shaman
```
#showtooltip Earth Shield
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][help][@player] Earth Shield
```
Puts Earth Shield on whoever you are hovering, defaulting to yourself. Usually parked on the tank and refreshed from across the room.
Earth Shield / Lightning Shield
Shaman
```
#showtooltip
/cast [mod:shift,@player] Earth Shield; Lightning Shield
```
Lightning Shield on yourself normally, Earth Shield on yourself while Shift is held. Two self-buffs that you rarely need at the same moment, sharing a slot.
Earthbind Totem (Cursor)
Shaman
```
#showtooltip Earthbind Totem
/cast [@cursor] Earthbind Totem
```
Places the slowing totem where your mouse is pointing rather than at your feet. Kiting is entirely about where the slow lands, not where you are standing.
Earthquake (Cursor)
Shaman
```
#showtooltip Earthquake
/cast [@cursor] Earthquake
```
Drops Earthquake at your cursor with no reticle. Elemental presses this on every multi-target pull, so the saved click is worth real damage over a dungeon.
