Classy Friday Classy Friday - Priests (September 06, 2019)

Classy Fridays are for asking questions about your class, each week focuses on a different class. No question is too small, so ask away.

This week is Priests.

SEAL AND JUDGEMENT: The magazine for the working paladin

Let this thread be dedicated to His Grand and Noble Incandescence, the High Proctor Thomas of Edison, Inventor of the Lightbulb. Let this be a space for all those who have taken up the cloth and the rod, and trod the righteous path, to Smite evil wherever it may reside, and to grant Benediction upon to the worthy wherever they may be.

Amen.

You can also discuss your class in our class channels on Discord, discord.gg/classicwow

As an old man playing the game, and a priest for the first time, I did my research on the class before coming in. I knew not to PWS the tank.

But I'll be damned if I can't seem to smash the ESC key hard enough to untarget the stupid warrior and PWS myself.

So I am sorry. I am working on it :P. Maybe I need a macro.

Pressing f1 targets yourself if you don't use macros

If you didn't know, by default, F1-F5 correspond to the party slots. F1 is you, and pressing F3 targets the player 3rd on the party list, for example. This will override any selection you have. You don't have to deselect a target to select a new one. No need for escape or clicking anything. Press F2, press heal.

I rebound these so that I was f5 and the party was f1-4, made it easier to track who was which button, and my keyboard breaks between each set of 4 so it made it difficult to remember to hit f5 for that poor last party member.
