Useful Macro Templates

You could also setup an @NAME macro but it’ll require updating it each time the tank has a different name. There’s a 2 macro setup that can automate that for you.

Create a blank macro called MD

Create a 2nd macro called Set MD with the following:

/run local n=UnitName("target") or "pet" if not InCombatLockdown() then EditMacro(GetMacroIndexByName("MD"),nil,nil,"#showtooltip\n/cast [@"..n..",help,nodead] [@pet,exists] [] Misdirection") print("Misdirection target set to "..n) end

Target the tank and hit Set MD. It’ll populate their name and the rest in MD then use that to cast on the tank.
