i personally have found success with using a focus leader setup. there is a lot of flexibility with the macros i use

i'm going to quote a post i made in a different thread (self-quotes ftw!)where i explained my set up:


for casting my spells i use
Code:
/assist [target=focus, exists]
/cast (spell)
my leader doesn't have a focus, so it ignores the /assist.

my leader-switching macros look like:
Code:
/clearfocus
/focus toonA
and for the leader, just
Code:
/clearfocus
which leaves the leader without a focus.
this way, the only macros i really need to customize differently on each toon are my leader-swapping macros. i don't need to worry about swapping bars at all, and soloing with each toon doesn't take any adjustment provided you don't need to use focus when soloing.

just my way of doing things, it works for me and i like it, others my have a different preference 8)
