I do all my paladin tanking by mouse clicks. I tried macroing it and using a big button but I found clicking made my tanking WAYYYYY better. Not to mention it cut down on downtime because I could keep from consecrating on single mob pulls and make intelligent decisions.
I have Taunt, Feign Death/Disengage, Fade all bound to the same key
I have my 3 DPS running with a single big button DPS macro for each. My Hunter consistently leads on DPS but is slowly losing out. I'll be trying out a new castsequence tonight to try and fix this but I'm really looking forward to lvl 62 for steadyshot. Yuck at all the autoshot clipping I'll be doing but such is life.
After that I don't have a lot of grouping but this is partially out of macro and addon lazyness. I know I can figure out a system for pet feeding/summoning/managment but I do it manually. I am completely not using healthstones even though I know I totally should be. I find I have enough potions from drops in instances that I don't need them and I run out of soulshards all the time anyways. I have rez macros all on the same key (except druid for obviouse reasons) and of couse drink/eat buttons all on the same key.
I have an emergency key that I rarely use that utilizes natures swiftness/big heal and priest shield but I almost never need/use it. When I need it, I'm too low on mana for it to be usefull and when I use it, it's normally on accident because the key is right next to my normal healing key. Looking forward to lvl 64 for lifebloom. I'll switch to a key/modifier setup with a hot rotation and swiftmend casting when I use the modifier. That or some variation similar.
I tried overlaying abilities for a while but I never could find a setup I was really satisfied with. Each of the following spells are spell I feel need intelligent use and I just don't feel comfortable tieing them to another ability and not being able to use them independently.
I also have had trouble getting myself to talent into Warlock conflagerate. In the event that my Immolate spell is resisted, or my DPS wains and my immolate ticks out, my walock will hang in his castsequence which is a big no-no.
