Main Macros
First off, you should never play without a macros for Nature’s Swiftness and Regrowth. This macro will allow you to use both abilities with a single press.
#showtooltip /stopcasting /cast Nature's Swiftness /cast Regrowth
You should also get yourself a quality of life macro for Innervate on yourself. It allows you to automatically cast the ability on yourself no matter who you are targeting.
#showtooltip /cast [@player] Innervate
Additionally, you should have a macro that uses your drink and Prowl at the same time, making it much easier to regen Mana.
#showtooltip /use NAMEOFDRINK /cast Prowl
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 Cyclone, Entangling Roots and Bash.
#showtooltip /cast [@focus] Cyclone
#showtooltip /cast [@focus] Mighty Bash
#showtooltip /cast [@focus] Entangling Roots
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] Cyclone
#showtooltip /cast [@arena2] Cyclone
#showtooltip /cast [@arena3] Cyclone
Party Macros
The same idea applies for interacting with your teammates. You could either use their names, in which case you have to remember to change the macro every time you swap teams. The better option, especially for Solo Shuffle, is to use @party1 and @party2 macros. Party1 is always the first teammate on your frames, and party2 is the second, regardless of your own position. You should make these macros for your Nature’s Cure, and also make sure you make one for yourself. These will allow you to instantly remove important debuffs. You should also keybind target party1, party2 and self to easily switch between friendly targets during the game.
#showtooltip /cast [@party1] Nature's Cure
#showtooltip /cast [@party2] Nature's Cure
#showtooltip /cast [@PLAYERNAME] Nature's Cure
Other Macros
You can use cancelform condition to make it so your Wild Charge automatically flies to a friendly target.
#showtooltip /cancelform /cast Wild Charge
This next macro will allow you to cast Ursol’s Vortex at the location of your cursor, circumventing the need to manually click on the ground.
#showtooltip /cast [@cursor] Ursol's Vortex
This macro uses the new ping feature in order to display the position of your Efflorescence.
#showtooltip Efflorescence /cast [@cursor] Efflorescence /ping
This macro will cast Starsurge on the enemy target of the player that you are currently healing. This allows you to continue to use your damage abilities without detargeting your ally.
#showtooltip /cast [harm] Starsurge; [@targettarget] Starsurge
Finally, you could get a macro that automatically casts Growl whenever you enter Bear Form. It can be useful against Hunters and Warlocks in order to temporarily change the target of their pets.
#showtooltip Growl /stopcasting /cast [nostance:1] Bear Form /cast [@arenapet1,exists,nodead][@arenapet2,exists,nodead][@arenapet3,exists,nodead] Growl
