Counterspell Macro

[B@nj0 P3do]

Hi, Just need a Confirmation on this macro.

#showtooltip Counterspell
/stopcasting
/cast [target=focus, exists] Counterspell; Counterspell

Do this Interrupt my Target, if I dont have a Focus.
And interrupt my Focus, If I have a Focus? (irrelevant of target)

That is all, thank you.

It also will try to counterspell your focus even if your focus is friendly. I like to do

/cast [@focus,exists,harm] Counterspell; Counterspell

If a focus or target is friendly, you get Invalid target

Say your focus is the tank and you're trying to CS a targetted mob, Woxingma's macro will CS that mob and yours will continuously give you Invalid Target until you clear or reset your focus target I think (not a macro expert here, but that's what I'm seeing from the coding)

Yeah, without the harm component, you will spam yourself with "Invalid Target" with the original macro. The problem with your macro, also, is that it forces you to CS your focus whenever you have one. There can be times in PvP and PvE where the main threat can come from either target. You're better off with adding a shift or alt modifier to that so IF you have a focus it will CS it with shift+whatever, but if you don't hit shift, it will CS your primary target even if you have a Focus, if that makes sense.

Right, and then you waste a few seconds clearing your focus or resetting it so you can counterspell and by then... you missed it.

/stopcasting
/cast [modifier:shift, target=focus] Counterspell
/cast [nomodifier:shift] Counterspell

this is mine, lets shift+button=focus target and without it's just the target you have currently.
