Warlock macros

All builds with a demon. Use it to pull your pet out of enemy range and protect it.

Pet

/petpassive
/petfollow

Only after you are allowed to act during the opener.

Mouseover: enemyPet

/petattack [@mouseover,harm,nodead][harm,nodead]

Normal: your pet stays where it is (so it doesn’t break crowd control or pull a group). Shift: it comes back to you. Both on one button.

Shift: variantPet

/petstay [nomod]
/petfollow [mod:shift]

Does the same as Ctrl+3 (the “Move To” button on the pet bar): the ground marker appears and you click where you want it to go. This way you can put it on any button you like, next to the others.

Mouse: groundPet

/petmoveto

Your Felhunter interrupts the enemy under your mouse without changing target; if there is none, your target. Needs the Felhunter out.

Mouseover: enemyPet

#showtooltip Spell Lock
/cast [@mouseover,harm,nodead][harm,nodead] Spell Lock

Cancels your current cast. Shift requires a living enemy focus.

Stops your castShift: focus

#showtooltip Fear
/stopcasting
/cast [mod:shift,@focus,harm,nodead][nomod,harm,nodead] Fear

Does not send your pet to attack; also useful when you want to keep it recalled.

Mouseover: enemy

#showtooltip Corruption
/cast [@mouseover,harm,nodead][harm,nodead] Corruption

In Forever, the name is Bane of Agony. You can maintain a Curse and a Bane on the same target.

Mouseover: enemy

#showtooltip Bane of Agony
/cast [@mouseover,harm,nodead][harm,nodead] Bane of Agony

Normal: Tongues. Shift: Elements. Ctrl: Weakness. They replace your other Curse on that target.

Shift/Ctrl: variant

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:ctrl] Curse of Weakness; [mod:shift] Curse of the Elements; Curse of Tongues

Both curses on one button: normal, Curse of the Elements; with Shift, Curse of Weakness. Only one Curse per target: the new one replaces the other.

Shift: variant

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:shift] Curse of Weakness; Curse of the Elements

Shift lets you deliberately restart it or switch targets. Normal waits until your channel finishes.

Does not clip channelsShift/Ctrl: variant

#showtooltip Drain Life
/cast [mod:shift][nochanneling] Drain Life

Pressure the enemy's mana; Shift allows a deliberate switch.

Does not clip channelsShift/Ctrl: variant

#showtooltip Drain Mana
/cast [mod:shift][nochanneling] Drain Mana

Manual control: do not put it into an automatic rotation; decide based on your health and incoming damage.

#showtooltip Life Tap
/cast Life Tap

Keep your demon alive. Shift lets you deliberately switch channels.

Does not clip channelsShift/Ctrl: variant

#showtooltip Health Funnel
/cast [mod:shift][nochanneling] Health Funnel

Felhunter. Mouseover can cleanse an ally or purge an enemy. Alt forces a self-cleanse.

Mouseover: ally or unitAlt: self

#showtooltip Devour Magic
/cast [mod:alt,@player][@mouseover,exists,nodead][] Devour Magic

Succubus or Incubus with Seduction learned. Do not DoT the target you want to keep seduced; do not spam the key.

Shift: focusPet

#showtooltip Seduction
/petpassive
/cast [mod:shift,@focus,harm,nodead][nomod,harm,nodead] Seduction

Your Succubus seduces the enemy under your mouse without changing target; if there is none, your target. It sets her to passive so she doesn’t break it.

Mouseover: enemyPet

#showtooltip Seduction
/petpassive
/cast [@mouseover,harm,nodead][harm,nodead] Seduction

Mouseover, then focus, then target. Your focus must be a valid demon or elemental; a Human focus prevents falling through to the next option.

Stops your castShift: focusMouseover: enemy

#showtooltip Banish
/stopcasting
/cast [@mouseover,harm,nodead][@focus,harm,nodead][] Banish

Normal uses Lesser Healthstone: change the name to the rank you have (Major Healthstone at level 60). Alt creates it.

Alt: alternative

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:alt] Create Healthstone
/use [nomod] Lesser Healthstone

A preparation button, separate from offensive abilities.

#showtooltip Demon Armor
/cast Demon Armor

Fires your wand without toggling it off: with “!” it won't cancel if you press it again. Great for finishing targets or for downtime without mana. If the target isn't valid, it does nothing.

#showtooltip Shoot
/cast !Shoot

An alternative to C12 that explicitly targets your pet to attempt to dispel a dispellable magic effect. Requires a Felhunter with Devour Magic and valid conditions; it does not remove every CC or guarantee saving it. Avoids selecting your demon and switching back to your opponent.

#showtooltip Devour Magic
/cast [@pet,exists,nodead] Devour Magic

For making shards out of combat, on enemies that give them. Avoids restarting your channel when you press it again; Shift lets you change it on purpose. Pressing it does not create shards: you must meet Drain Soul's conditions.

Doesn't interrupt channels

#showtooltip Drain Soul
/cast [mod:shift,harm,nodead][nochanneling,harm,nodead] Drain Soul

An alternative to C15 for players who prefer a purely defensive button. Stops your cast and attempts to use Lesser Healthstone, which you must have created and carry in your bags. It neither creates it nor bypasses its restrictions. Other classes carrying this stone can also use it; change the name if yours is a different rank.

Stops your cast

#showtooltip Lesser Healthstone
/stopcasting
/use Lesser Healthstone

Control a second enemy without changing your damage target. Normal uses a living mouseover enemy; otherwise, it attempts your target. Shift uses only a living enemy focus. Cancels your current cast: use it when you want to prioritize CC. It does not detect immunities or diminishing returns, or decide which enemy to control. Complements C3; you do not need to bind both if one covers your playstyle.

Stops your castShift: focusMouseover: enemy

#showtooltip Fear
/stopcasting
/cast [mod:shift,@focus,harm,nodead][nomod,@mouseover,harm,nodead][nomod,harm,nodead] Fear

With a Felhunter and Devour Magic learned. Attempts to dispel a magic effect from a living mouseover ally; without a valid one, targets yourself. You can use a teammate's frame while keeping the enemy selected. A defensive alternative to C12: it does not purge enemies. It neither removes every effect type nor works without range, availability and a valid target. Spending it on an ally can leave you without that resource for yourself during its cooldown.

Mouseover: ally or unit

#showtooltip Devour Magic
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][@player] Devour Magic

With Demonology talents. Apply it with your demon out, and reapply after resummoning or changing demons.

#showtooltip Soul Link
/cast [pet] Soul Link

With Demonology talents. Normal: Felhunter; Shift: Voidwalker; Ctrl: Succubus. Requires Master Summoner 2/2 and Fel Domination. Press once; if Domination is on cooldown, summoning uses the normal cast time.

Stops your castShift/Ctrl: variant

#showtooltip
/stopcasting
/cast Fel Domination
/cast [mod:shift] Summon Voidwalker; [mod:ctrl] Summon Succubus; Summon Felhunter

Normal: Felhunter. Shift: Voidwalker. Ctrl: Succubus. Alt: Imp. No Fel Domination, normal summon time; if you have the talent, use D2.

Shift/Ctrl/Alt: variant

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:alt] Summon Imp; [mod:shift] Summon Voidwalker; [mod:ctrl] Summon Succubus; Summon Felhunter

With Demonic Brand (Demonology) you get more out of it; without that talent it is only direct damage. Press when you can act; do not force the opener.

Pet

#showtooltip Searing Pain
/petattack [harm,nodead]
/cast [harm,nodead] Searing Pain

Only works with a Voidwalker. Requires Alt to activate. Sacrifices the demon: you lose Soul Link protection. Save it for when you really need it.

Alt: alternative

#showtooltip Sacrifice
/cast [mod:alt,pet:Voidwalker] Sacrifice

Only if you have the talent (Affliction). Replaces your other Curse, but not Bane of Agony.

Shift: focus

#showtooltip Curse of Exhaustion
/cast [mod:shift,@focus,harm,nodead][nomod,harm,nodead] Curse of Exhaustion

Every warlock can cast Shadow Bolt; with Nightfall (Affliction) you get more out of it. The macro neither detects the proc nor prevents a normal cast.

#showtooltip Shadow Bolt
/cast [harm,nodead] Shadow Bolt

Only if you have the talent (Affliction).

Mouseover: enemy

#showtooltip Siphon Life
/cast [@mouseover,harm,nodead][harm,nodead] Siphon Life

With Amplify Curse (Affliction). Normal: Agony; Shift attempts Amplify Curse first. If both share the global cooldown, you will need another press.

Shift/Ctrl: variant

#showtooltip Bane of Agony
/cast [mod:shift] Amplify Curse
/cast [harm,nodead] Bane of Agony

With Destruction talents. Cancels your cast to finish the target. Manage its shards; do not automatically use it on cooldown.

Stops your cast

#showtooltip Shadowburn
/stopcasting
/cast [harm,nodead] Shadowburn

With Conflagrate (Destruction) they combine; the two decisions are kept separate.

#showtooltip Immolate
/cast [harm,nodead] Immolate

With Destruction talents. Without Shadow and Flame, Conflagrate consumes Immolate: decide when to spend its remaining periodic damage. With Shadow and Flame it no longer uses it up.

Stops your cast

#showtooltip Conflagrate
/stopcasting
/cast [harm,nodead] Conflagrate

Normal: Fire; Shift: Shadow. Useful for switching schools, without promising that the spell is available during a lockout.

Shift/Ctrl: variant

#showtooltip
/cast [mod:shift] Shadow Bolt; Searing Pain

Only if you have the talent. Mouse over the enemy pet and keep damaging the player.

Mouseover: enemy

#showtooltip Bane of Havoc
/cast [@mouseover,harm,nodead] Bane of Havoc

With Demonic Sacrifice (Demonology). Imp grants a Shadow bonus; summoning another demon afterwards cancels the effect.

Alt: alternative

#showtooltip Demonic Sacrifice
/cast [mod:alt,pet] Demonic Sacrifice
