MD macro that doesn't use focus or mouse over?

I used focus interupt macros so focus MD doesn’t work.

And mouse over is more work than I’d like. Is there a way to have one button MD without these?

You could always make a macro that casts MD on a specific player/pet.

Not all that fun to use if you run dungeons/raids etc with a lot of different players as you will have to assign the right name to the macro with each new group.

Example:

#showtooltip Misdirection
/cast [@player name here]Misdirection

Good for raid but not m+ unless I change it pre key drop everytime.

I wonder if there is a script that will change the target in a macro like that.

I think i saw something useful recently

/use [@player1][@pet]misdirection

Or *[@party 1]

Tanks are always the first party member it seems? Lemme know if it works

In a party/raid? Not in my experience, unless the game has some underlying…background way of sorting combat roles within parties/raidgroups.

I do recall something about there being scripts you could use to sort your party/raid members to be in a certain order, so you could then use something like [@party1] or [@party2]. Although that would probably require you to be lead/assist for it to be possible.

I know that @Adreaver is tinkering with different macros and stuff so he could probably give a better answer to this type of thing, or other players as well ofc…

I just remember seeing it somewhere, hadn’t tried it, but I gotta say it’s hard to tell what is still relevant as some of the content I peruse is undated or dated af.

I guess you could just do a /use [@targettarget,help]misdirection macro as the tank pulls for mouseover free misdirects? It would work for your pet too you’d just have to make sure it initiates combat.
