Blessing of Protection (Mouseover)

Drops the physical immunity on a hovered ally. Because it also stops them attacking, being able to aim it precisely at the person who actually needs saving matters.

Where to paste this

Type /macro (or press Esc → Macros) to open the macro window.
Choose "General Macros" to share the macro across all characters, or "<Character> Specific Macros" to keep it on one character.
Click New, pick an icon — the "?" icon plus #showtooltip makes the button mirror whatever spell it will cast — and name the macro.
Paste the macro body into the text area, then drag the macro icon onto an action bar.
Bind the action bar slot to a key as usual; the macro fires on key press.

Paladin macros first, then the rest of the WoW library.

Blessing of Freedom (Mouseover)
Paladin
```
#showtooltip Blessing of Freedom
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][help][@player] Blessing of Freedom
```
Frees whoever you are hovering from snares and roots, falling back to your target and then to yourself. Freedom is time-critical and rarely needed on your current target.
Blessing of Sacrifice (Mouseover)
Paladin
```
#showtooltip Blessing of Sacrifice
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][help] Blessing of Sacrifice
```
Takes a share of a hovered ally's damage. Usually thrown on the tank the moment a big hit is incoming, which you want to do without dropping whoever you are healing.
Blessing of Spellwarding (Party 1)
Paladin
```
#showtooltip
/cast [known:Blessing of Spellwarding,@party1] Blessing of Spellwarding; [@party1] Blessing of Protection
```
Casts Spellwarding on the first player in your party frames, falling back to Blessing of Protection if you have not talented it. Handy in arena where you know exactly who needs it.
Cancel Blessing of Freedom
Paladin
```
/cancelaura Blessing of Freedom
```
Drops Freedom off yourself. Against Mages who want to steal it, removing the buff before they can take it denies them a free escape.
Cancel Blessing of Protection
Paladin
```
/cancelaura Blessing of Protection
```
Removes Protection from yourself so you can attack again. The immunity blocks your own physical damage too, which is rarely what you want once the danger has passed.
Cleanse (Mouseover)
Paladin
```
#showtooltip Cleanse
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][help][@player] Cleanse
```
Dispels whoever your cursor is over. Holy Paladins get Cleanse and everyone else gets Cleanse Toxins — swap the name to match your specialisation.
Consecration Without the Reticle
Paladin
```
#showtooltip Consecration
/cast [@player] Consecration
```
Drops Consecration under you with no confirmation click. Protection Paladins want to be standing in it at all times, so this is pressed constantly.
Crusader Strike with Auto Attack
Paladin
```
#showtooltip Crusader Strike
/startattack
/cast Crusader Strike
```
Casts Crusader Strike and guarantees your auto-attack is running. Auto attacks silently switching off after a knockback is a real and easily-missed damage loss.
