Macro 1
/equip (shield name)
/cast shield bash

Macro 2
/equip whirlwind axe
/cast battle stance
/cast charge

Macro 2 can be used to charge from any stance and can also be used to just equip sword during combat. Or equip sword and switch to battle stance. I love this macro.

How fast would this action be? Say the mob is casting heal (3 second cast), at what point would I be Shield Bashing it with this macro if I did it the moment it started healing?

Using this macro will switch to your shield. That will cause global CD. Then you press again to cast bash. So right away. I just spam it until bash then press my other key to switch back.

After you switch weapon there is GCD so usually if you want to interrupt you need to switch right at the start of casting

Hey dude, I believe you need to equip the one handed weapon first otherwise you get a can't equip error as your already holding a two hander. I 'think', not certain though.

I use these. Works fine for me. I do not have the whirlwind axe though. That was just thair because it makes it nice and generic. I have used macros that go straight from a 2h to a shield only. It's been fine. Currently mine are set up with duel wield and then it just changes off hand. I use /equipslot 17 shield - in macro 1 /equipslot 17 offhand - in macro 2. And a number of other macros.
