A '''focus target''' is a secondary [[target]] system, used to keep track of a second [[unit]] other than the currently targeted unit.  The focus is a sort of "target memory" meaning that the focus can be set then recalled with simple [[macro]] commands. Furthermore, the user interface supplies full real-time updates for the currently stored focus, including health and mana updates and [[enemy casting bar]]s.  Some user interface addons provide a complete [[unit frame]] for the focus.

Note that actions cannot be performed directly on the focus.  A player must first acquire the focus as the current target, usually with a macro. The function is very useful for healing classes and crowd control classes that need to keep track of a player or mob while casting spells on someone else.
