This macro allows you to use Gorefiend's Grasp Download swift shader for windows 10. to grip adds on top ofyour focus target.
If you have your cursor over a valid target to centerGorefiend's Grasp on, this macro will cast Gorefiend's Grasp at yourcursor. Otherwise, it will center your Gorefiend's Grasp on yourself.
1.2.2. Death and Decay
This will drop Death and Decay at your feet without using the groundtargeting reticle; while holding down CTRL, it will instead cast Death andDecay wherever your cursor is pointing (again, without using the groundtargeting reticle). Since the vast majority of bosses have a large enoughhitbox to be affected by a Death and Decay dropped at your feet, this speeds upcasting and maximizes your ability to shift around and still remain standing inDeath and Decay.
1.2.3. Blessing of Protection Cancelaura Macro
This macro is very useful to have. It allows you to cancel aBlessing of Protection that may have been cast on you, allowing youto resume your attacks. It is also important because while you are under theeffect of Blessing of Protection, mobs will not attack you and instead will justattack the next person on the aggro list (often a DPS player), though tauntinga mob will still force it to attack you for 3 seconds.

We strongly recommend that you get this addon and our forum moderator Pandacho has writtena quick configuration guide for it.
2.1.2. Boss Mods: Deadly Boss Mods or Bigwigs![]() Weakauras Blood Dk Tanking Addons Free

2.1.3. GTFO
Metal gear rising download pc. GTFO is a lightweightaddon that notifies you when you are standing in harmful effects or when youare making other such mistakes. It is very useful, even if your boss mod isalready alerting you of such things.
2.1.4. Parrot or Mik's Scrolling Battle Text

2.1.6. Recount / Skada / Details!
Recount is awell known addon that most people use for displaying current DPS or HPS(Healing Per Second).

It is generally a good option to use Recount for checking what youtake damage from and if the share of damage/healing you do with each of yourabilities is similar to that of other players of your class.
An alternative to Recount (similar in function, so the choice is personalpreference) is Details!.
A lightweight alternative to Recount and Details! is Skada Damage Meter.
