Stormbringer Enhancement Shaman GSE Macro – WoW 11.1

Stormbringer Enhancement Shaman GSE Macro

Patch: 11.1| GSE Version: 3.2.28

⚠️ Before using this macro, please read the FAQ for important setup tips.

Usage Scenarios

This macro is designed for high Mythic+ keys. In a 3-minute 5-target simulation using Raidbots, the Stormbringer build showed an 18% higher average DPS compared to the Totemic Priest (Elemental Blast) build. That’s why I chose to build around this spec.

That said, Stormbringer has slower burst onset and is better suited for pushing keys, while Totemic excels at fast-pulling low packs.

Macro Overview

Importing this macro will create the following GSE macros:

  • Stormbringer_ST
  • Stormbringer_AOE
  • Lightning Bolt (character-specific, find it via /m)
  • Chain Lightning (character-specific)
  • OPENER (character-specific)

Notes

  • Ascendance is excluded from GSE and should be cast manually.
  • Stormbringer_ST and Stormbringer_AOE start with Flame Shock + Lava Lash, which will only be reapplied on target switch or combat reset.
  • Both macros support Voltaic Blaze and Windstrike. If you activate Ascendance, the macro will enter a Windstrike-focused loop.
  • Single-target relies on Stormstrike, while AOE uses Crash Lightning.
  • Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning prioritize Primordial Storm when it's active. If not, they default to Lightning Bolt / Tempest / Chain Lightning. Replace your normal skillbar buttons with these.
  • OPENER immediately breaks shapeshift and casts Doom Winds + both trinkets for max burst.

Optimization Tips

AOE performance is the core of Stormbringer builds. There are two major factors:

  1. How many stacks of Chain Lightning you successfully hit.
  2. How much you reduce the cooldown of Crash Lightning (each Chain Lightning cast reduces it).

If your Crash Lightning uptime in AOE is below 80%, you’re doing something wrong. Ideally, you want 90%+ coverage. That requires skill — use Chain Lightning strategically when Crash Lightning is on cooldown to maximize uptime and AOE output.
