Offensive Macro's
The classic Presence of Mind, Arcane Power, and trinket macro.
/cast Presence of Mind
/stopcasting
/cast Arcane Power
/stopcasting
/use Vengeance of the Illidari
/stopcasting
/cast Pyroblast
I use a variation on this myself for this macro I like to hit the keyboard a few times to ratchet up the sequence.
#showtooltip pyroblast
/use (whatever your trinket is)
/stopcasting
/castsequence reset=combat/target Arcane Power, Presence of Mind, Pyroblast
Pet Tricks: the Water Elemental and you.
Spammable Summon & Attack – This will summon your pet, and if pressed again, will set it to attack your target ones the lag on summoning finishes. Spamming is okay, and won’t cause your pet’s first waterbolt to cancel and restart.
/cast [nopet] Summon Water Elemental
/stopmacro [target=pettarget, exists]
/petattack
Interrupt Ice Lance
Mostly for Frostbite mages, this macro stops whatever spell you were casting and casts Ice Lance.
/stopcasting
/cast Ice Lance
Summon & Freeze – Summons or activates the ranged frost nova power, Freeze. Using normal cast commands has been unreliable for this power.
/cast [nopet] Summon Water Elemental
/stopmacro [nopet]
/click PetActionButton5
Dismiss (& Invisibility) – You can use this script to dismiss your pet without using the pet dropdown menu. This particular macro dismisses him and begins your Invisibility fade, so he won't force you into combat unintentionally.
/script PetAbandon()
/cast Invisibility
# Castsequence Attack Routine
This is a cast sequence designed for mana efficiency - three Scorches and an Arcane Blast. It will reset to Arcane Blast if not pressed for 7 seconds (at least enough time for the debuff to begin to fade).
/castsequence reset=7 Arcane Blast, Scorch, Scorch, Scorch
# Friendly Fire Targeting
Replacing spells with this macro will cause you to cast them at your target’s target if you’re targeting a unit which cannot be attacked.
/cast [harm] [target=targettarget] Fireball
# Cooldown Burners
Automatically casting spells or using trinkets whenever they are cooled down can still be done, if the spells don’t cause a global cooldown when activated. However, any time the trinket or spell is not ready, error text is displayed, error speech is triggered, and the “spell failed” sound effect is played. More complex scripts can remove the text, but I have not found a way to remove the failure sound. Regardless, here are two such macros.
/use Zandalarian Hero Charm
/stopcasting
/cast Fireball
/cast Combustion
/stopcasting
/cast Fireball

Defensive Macros
Blink & Look
Stops any cast or channel and Blinks you forward instead. Then, if your target is an enemy, flips your camera angle 180 degrees. Macroes cannot turn your character, only the camera, so a two-button mouse move will be needed to face your attacker again.
/stopcasting
/cast Blink
/stopmacro [noharm]
/script FlipCameraYaw(180)
Decurse
A reasonable replacement for the defunct decursive addon, hitting this button will remove a curse from whoever’s unit frame or 3D figure your cursor is hovering over. If your mouse is over a hostile or no target, you’ll decurse yourself.
/cast [target=mouseover, help] [target=player] Remove Lesser Curse
Interrupt Counterspell
Stops what you’re casting to immediately cast Counterspell.
/stopcasting
/cast Counterspell
Focus Counterspell
Uses the Alt modifier to CS your focus, rather than your target. Found this one very useful for bosses who need to be interrupted while DPSing elsewhere.
/cast [modifier:Alt, target=focus, exists, nodead] [] Counterspell
Your Favorite Harmless Animal, Polymorph
Polymorph: Focus – Sets your focus to your target and polymorphs it with a left click. Sheeps your focus without changing targets if you right click.
/cast [button:2, target=focus] [] Polymorph
/focus [nobutton:2]
Polymorph: Spam – Casts Detect Magic, sets the Star raid icon, sets your focus, and announces to your party or raid group your intention to sheep the target. How’s that for a chat spamming polymorph announcement?
/cast detect magic
/focus
/script SetRaidTarget("focus", 1)
/script if UnitSex("target")==1 then g="female " else g="male " end;s="I'm going to sheep a "..g..UnitLevel("target").." %T";c="Party";if GetNumRaidMembers()>0 then c="raid" end;SendChatMessage(s,c)
Polymorph: Random – This macro randomly chooses the harmless animal your enemy will some impersonate.
/castrandom Polymorph, Polymorph: Pig, Polymorph: Turtle
Polymorph: Target Alert - This script will whisper any member of your party who is targetting your target. Click it before or while sheeping to help clear things up.
/script u=UnitIsUnit;c="Party";t="Target";for i=0,40 do if not u(c..i,"player") then if u(c..i..t,t) then n,r=UnitName(c..i) SendChatMessage("I am Polymorphing your target!","WHISPER",this.language,n) end end end
Shapeshifting, Ice Cube Form
Breakable Ice Block – A 1.5 second “dead time” on toggle buttons like Ice Block was implemented to prevent unintentionally canceling buffs by spamming. This macro will restore previous functionality so Ice Block can be used to cancel debuffs almost instantaneously.
/cancelaura Ice Block
/cast Ice Block
Ice Block/Cold Snap – A macro allows rapid recasting of Ice Block by incorporating Cold Snap. The reset should be changed to 240 for Ice Floes.
/cancelaura Ice Block
/castsequence reset=300 Ice Block, Cold Snap
Break & Counterspell – This breaks Ice Block and immediately Counterspells your target.
/cancelaura Ice Block
/cast Counterspell
Break’n’Blink – This breaks Ice Block and immediately Blinks you forward.
/cancelaura Ice Block
/cast Blink
One-Button Wards
Left click for Fire Ward, right click for Frost Ward
/cast [button:2] Frost Ward; Fire Ward
Ice Barrier & Mana Shield
This cast sequence will use a single button to cast Ice Barrier, then Mana Shield. If only Ice Barrier is cast, it will reset to Ice Barrier again in 30 seconds (reset should be changed to 24 for Ice Floes). The problem is, this isn’t a real cooldown test, it’s just a counter from the previous button push. Casting Mana Shield will move the sequence back to Ice Barrier, even if it is not yet ready. Adding another Mana Shield to the sequence would stop the pseudo-cooldown timing, by not pushing to Ice Barrier until 30 seconds after the Last mana shield cast.
/castsequence reset=30 Ice Barrier, Mana Shield
Self-Bandaging – Although this one doesn’t actually involve a mage spell, it is extremely useful. If your target can be healed, you bandage it, otherwise you bandage yourself (without losing your target).
/use [help] [target=player] Heavy Netherweave Bandage

/cast [modifier:shift] Teleport: Silvermoon; [modifier:alt] Teleport: Undercity; [modifier:ctrl] Teleport: Thunder Bluff; Teleport: Orgrimmar
