Share one piece of wisdom you have that helped you reach your skill level that may not be obvious or took time to learn fully.
I don’t consider myself good. I seem to get hard stuck around 2250 in 2 v 2.
But, to get where I am, it was all about macros.
for example:
#showtooltip Fade
/stopcasting
/cast Fade
/cast [@player] Angelic Feather
That helps you get out of most sticky situations with one button.
Almost every slot on my action bars is occupied by a macro. But I mainly PvP, so I have options to heal specific party members or damage specific arena opponents regardless of my target.
Also learning when to trade CDs is huge in PvP.
Perfecting the timing of Fade is big, too.
Here’s mine:
Set PI with one button, cast it on set target or yourself if they don’t exist:
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][@Bonkrat,exists,nodead][] Power Infusion
/run local n=UnitName("target") or "player" if not InCombatLockdown() then EditMacro(GetMacroIndexByName("PI"),nil,nil,"#showtooltip\n/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][@"..n..",exists,nodead][] Power Infusion\n") print("PI Updated to "..n) end
If you are targeting an ally SWD will immediately hit your closest target to get you out of CC that breaks on damage without losing your ally target, or it will just function normally on enemy target
/stopcasting
/cast [@target,harm] Shadow Word: Death
/stopmacro [harm]
/targetenemy
/cast Shadow Word: Death
/targetlasttarget [harm]
Damn, thought this was an rp post. That title is misleading smh
I don’t have specific macros or anything. But the biggest bit of advice for PVE is to learn the fights. Whether M+ or Raid. Knowing where to stand and when can make a HUGE difference in priest play. We are one of, if not the slowest class in the game. Bad positioning is especially punishing.
Similarly with PVP. Learn matchups. Look up how best to handle the different classes and team ups.
Overall, plan ahead, keep thinking about what to do next. When something needs be done, you want to already be doing it.
