Shaman Battleground Honor Healing Spam

Posted May 29th, 2008 by admin

This macro makes it easy to accumulate lots of honor in BG. It simply cycles through the different friendly players in range and casts Lesser Healing Wave (Rank 1) on each. Unfortunately there is no apparent way to exclude yourself in the healing rotation.

Healing an injured friendly player earns you honor. This macro works particularly well in Alterac Valley, where battles are often long and confined to one area at a time. Just keep hitting the associated button/hotkey assigned to this macro and watch the honor build up.

/targetfriend [nodead]
/cast [nodead] Lesser Healing Wave(Rank 1)

Note that manually cycling through friendly players and healing only those who are damaged is a more mana- and time-efficient method, but this is simpler. To really maximize the effectiveness of this strategy check out the Healbot addon.

/targetfriend [nodead]
/cast [nodead] Healing Wave(Rank 1)

Healing Wave (Rank 1) is cheaper than its Lesser counterpart, and is a faster cast for Restoration Shaman. It also applies the Healing Way buff for those who have the talent.

    I find this a lot easier. This adaptation of the macro prioritizes targets in range that are below 100% health. Even if everyone around is at full health, it still cycles through them and heals regardless.

    Also I use chain heal as the default spell as of the WotLK patch, lower rank spells use more mana than high rank spells. Hope this helps =D

    /targetfriend health<100%
    /targetfriend [nodead]
    /cast [nodead] Chain Heal

    I found this to be EXTREMLY effective in situations involving AoE. I also found out that this shouldn’t be confined to PvP and is especially useful in Raids.

    Does the Healing stream totem get you honor?
