I was aware of the focus way of doing things but I initially wanted to avoid the use of focus to achieve this, a hold over from my singleboxing days I guess, where I would set a focus that I could then fear, banish, seduce etc without an issue.

For my shaman team I don't see a great deal of need for this (although I was thinking of having some thing for PVE/PVP where you could set a focus on a caster to earthshock whilst dpsing another target).

I guess the pro's to the focus outweigh the cons, so I may move to a focus macro setup.

thanks.
