Recommended Elemental Shaman Macros
Macros are simple in-game tools that allow you to sequence spells together, create custom names and icons, cast different abilities depending on whether the target is friendly or hostile, define targeting conditions, and much more.
For more information on creating macros, including full lists of conditionals, modifiers, and other command customizations you can use, refer to our full Macros guide.
Opener Macros
The Elemental opener contains a few different abilities you need to press in the same GCD, making the use of macros a good way of simplifying it. Most trinkets have a 20-second buff duration, meaning that they fit in nicely with
Ascendance
in the opener:
Use this for Trinket slot 1:
/use Ascendance
/use 13
/use Ancestral Swiftness
/use Natures Swiftness
/use Tempered Potion
Or this for Trinket slot 2:
/use Ascendance
/use 14
/use Ancestral Swiftness
/use Natures Swiftness
/use Tempered Potion
Earthquake
Another useful macro is one that automatically casts
Earthquake
at the position of your mouse cursor. Make sure you are specced in the version of
Earthquake
that is cast at cursor instead of the one that is cast at target.
#showtooltip Earthquake
/cast Earthquake
Other utility spells
And a version of the macro for
Wind Rush Totem
and
Capacitor Totem
:
#showtooltip Wind Rush Totem
/cast Wind Rush Totem
#showtooltip Capacitor Totem
/cast Capacitor Totem
Mouseover Macros
Being able to cast your dot on targets without having to switch the selected can be helpful in certain situation like e.g. when you need to keep a mob targetted for an interupt and you want to cast your DoT somewhere else.
Flame Shock
:
#showtooltip Flame Shock
/cast Flame Shock; Flame Shock
Voltaic Blaze
:
#showtooltip Voltaic Blaze
/cast Voltaic Blaze; Voltaic Blaze
