Discipline Priest Healing Macros and Addons — Midnight Season 1
On this page, you will find a number of useful macros and addons to make your life easier when playing your Discipline Priest in World of Warcraft — Midnight Season 1.

Specific Macros for Discipline Priests
We highly suggest that all of your heals, as well as other spells castable
on raid members (such as
Levitate, for preventing fall
damage), be incorporated into mouseover macros. The macros will allow you to
cast them on raid members more easily. As an alternative to creating mouseover
macros, you can use Clique.
Here is an example of a mouseover macro. Simply replace
Power Word: Shield with the name of the spell you want to use:
Generic Mouseover Macro Example
This will cast
Power Word: Shield on your mouseover target if it is a
friendly target and not dead. Otherwise, it will cast on your current
target.
Penance Macros
It is strongly recommended to keep the Offensive and Defensive
Penance components separated. You can either use a macro with modifiers
or use two separate keybinds with harm/help modifiers.
Harm Only:
Offensive Only Penance
Help Only:
Defensive Only Penance
NoChanneling Macro
Due to the way
Penance works, when you try to queue another spell
during its cast, you can accidentally interrupt the last bolt. To avoid this,
apply the following conditional to specific spells, very often being
Smite, that cause it the most for you. This works with any spell
and not just smite. Smite is simply used as an example here.
NoChanneling Example
Angelic Feather Macro
This is a really handy macro that casts
Angelic Feather under the
player using the @player shorthand.

Addons
Alternative Raid Frame Options
Grid2 is our recommended Addon for Raid frames, providing a massive amount of customization options as well as being incredibly performant. The largest downside of this Addon is the high barrier to entry as its not the simplest to learn, but very rewarding once you do so.
Alternatively, Cell is very similar to Grid2 in capabilities with a more intuitive interface and is very popular. Default Raid Frames provided by Blizzard can be ok but if you want to use them, we recommend utilizing Harrek's Advanced Raid Frames along side the default frames to enhance their functionality and customizability.
