Focus Macros
Some of the most important macros in PvP are focus cast macros. Essentially, they allow you to cast abilities on other units without having to manually change your target. This makes your gameplay a lot more fluid and reactive. For this reason, you should have such macros for important spells like Fear, Axe Toss, Mortal Coil, Curse of Exhaustion, Curse of Tongues and Curse of Weakness.
#showtooltip /cast [@focus] Fear
#showtooltip /cast [@focus] Axe Toss
#showtooltip /cast [@focus] Mortal Coil
Arena Macros
Arena macros do essentially the same thing. The downside of making arena macros is the number of binds you will have to allocate. Not to mention, they are a lot more difficult to get used to. Essentially, you will have 3 binds for each ability. You could start by using focus macros for most of your abilities and arena macros for some of the most important CC, and expand the more you get used to it.
#showtooltip /cast [@arena1] Fear
#showtooltip /cast [@arena2] Fear
#showtooltip /cast [@arena3] Fear
Cursor Macros
This macro will allow you to cast the ability at the location of your cursor. We suggest making it for Fel Obelisk as it will help you set up your burst windows faster. If you are comfortable with it, you could make the same macro for Shadowfury as well.
#showtooltip /cast [@cursor] Fel Obelisk
Pet Macros
Since Demo is a pet class, you need a few macros to efficiently control your pet. You will need a way to send your pet to attack your target and your focus target, as well as a way to bring your pet back by putting it on follow. This is done by having three separate macros. Alternatively, you can achieve these except for attack focus by binding the pet action bar. We highly suggest having a separate bind for pet attack and not putting it with active abilities. This way, you can have your pet on different targets to either stop drinks or spread pressure.
/petattack
/petattack [@focus]
/petfollow
#showtooltip call Dreadstalkers /petattack /cast call dreadstalkers
Other Macros
Amplify Curse is an important part of the Warlock toolkit. You can macro Amplify Curse with Curse of Tongues and Curse of Weakness to save room on your action bar and avoid accidently using the Curse before amplifying it. Some other great macros to have are Soulburn macros which empower specific abilities.
