SCG-Single Button Balance druid macro sets for level 80, patch 11.1, update: 3/1/2025

Druid The War Within Balance

If you like my macros, and want to provide me with some financial incentive to keep this and other macros updated, you can do so here: Paypal

UPDATE: 13/1/25: Here’s my update for the 11.1 patch. Seems the meta changed a decent amount for this class so it took some time to make adjustments to something that feels good. However, I haven’t had to really test it out much yet though. (I didn’t make changes to the hp macro)

By having spells in the wow macro, before or after the /click command to trigger GSE, it is possible to get gse to function similar to how it used to (albeit with some added limitations within GSE).

Important:

  1. go to GSE options - TroubleShooting - turn off ActionButtonUseKeyDown, otherwise gse macro won’t fire off using this macro set.

troubleshooting

  1. LUA ERROR NIL VALUE- That means you don’t know all of the spells that I added within GSE.
    Make sure you’re using all the same talents I have shared and the error should go away (passive talents don’t matter as much)
  2. If Leveling, download bug sack and bug grabber addons so you don’t get spammed with popups. Once you learn all the required spells, the error should go away. Alternatively, you can also go to GSE-MACRO_NAME - tab:‘1’ - disable all spell blocks containing a spell you don’t know - save. You can always go back into gse and reenable them when those spells are learned.
  3. This is made for the English version of WoW. If you are using a different language, you will have to manually translate the spells to the language of WoW you are using.

Talents:

open the talent tree and import the following if you want to use the same talents as me:
talents are based off of what is suggested here: Balance Druid PvE Guide For Mythic+

tip: if your astral power maxes out or you want to have a better chance to cast one of the astral power spenders, start running.

SCG_BALANCE_ST

  1. copy the following macro, paste it in game as a new macro, and drag the icon to the cast bar to be spammed there.
/cast [noform:4] Moonkin Form
/targetenemy [noharm][dead]
/castsequence reset=combat,shift Sunfire,Moonfire,null
/cast [mod:ctrl] starfire
/click [nochanneling,nomod] SCG_BAL_ST
/cast [nochanneling,nomod] wrath

usage: tap shift once to recast sunfire and moonfire, press ctrl to cast starfire.

alternative: This option requires no mods

/castsequence reset=target Sunfire,Moonfire,null
/click [nochanneling] SCG_BAL_ST
/castsequence [nochanneling] reset=combat Wrath,Wrath,Starfire,Sunfire,Moonfire,Starfire,Wrath,Wrath

usage: tap shift once in order to reaply the dots on your target, or switch to a different target, press ctrl to make sure starsurge fires off when you want it to.

  1. import the following code into gse, but do not keybind it. (The /click MACRO_NAME line in the wow macro is what tells the gse macro with the same name: MACRO_NAME to fire off instead of keybinding the gse macro itself)

Great Balance macro and no keybind, awesome job!!

4

Thanks, I just released one additional update after running a few sims/testing some different talent setups, and am quite happy with the result right now.

5

Because it is translated, so do not know how to operate

6

Awesome macro, great work!
Want to try feral too? :slight_smile:

I’ll see what I can do after work.

Hey Thesairen, how hard would it be to convert some existing macros (any class/build) i to this sort of format that you and Dwarfvader are doing. Much prefer it this way compared to the new way.

Is there any guide or something I could use/follow?

9

It depends. If the gse macro in question doesn’t have any macro blocks in it and only uses the spell/item type blocks instead, then most likely this method to use that macro will work. You’d just have to change the line: “/click [nochanneling] SCG_BALANCE_ST” to the name of whatever gse macro name you want instead of this one, along with any other appropriate changes. However, If that gse macro set does have some macro blocks within it, you might be able to move those macro commands from the block to the Wow macro and get it to work that way without too much difficulty.

As for tutorials, I believe this site has a number of video tutorials on how to create macro sets within gse. Just know that this method of executing a gse macro set breaks if you try to do anything too fancy within gse itself. Basically, if I’m understanding the changes right, you can use a macro to cast spells, use items, ect… (same as always), but you’re no longer able to use a macro to call another macro. As a result, using a macro like this to activate gse will most likely break if one of the gse blocks also happens to use a macro within it. At least that’s my current understanding/theory of how gse/WoW behaves right now.

Hope that helps.

the macro doesn’t work for me, first of all the trinkets, having a trinket that is only used once, it jams, and secondly, for some reason I did what you said, copied the macros, dragged them into the bar and used them by hand, but it doesn’t work. one thing not to put damage protection cds such as (hard skin, law of the strongest, etc.) in the macro, they have no sense in a macro because it will use them randomly, when instead you have to use them precisely when needed.

I personally like having some defensive abilities in my macros, especially if it doesn’t share a global cooldown to help me a little with surviveability a little bit without having to pay close attention to my health/spells the enemy is casting. Then again, I also don’t really do content where having to cast spells at specific times really matters that much.

With that said, you’re welcome to go into gse and delete any spell/item blocks that don’t suit you.

You also have to make sure GSE options - TroubleShooting - ActionButtonUseKeyDown is not check marked. If it is, gse won’t fire off using the /click MACRO_NAME macro technique.

You are onto something here, great find! Tested it out and some much needed stability is back into my rotations. Big thanks for sharing your findings @Thesairen

13

work well, ty as always !

14

What hero talents did you go with.

15

I haven’t been able to level up yet to select any hero talents yet, but I plan to update the talents here once I do.

16

Update: since my current build/macro set doesn’t make use of the force of nature talent, it looks like the Elune’s Chosen is the way to go for now. When I have time to max out my character, I’ll do more testing/sims and look into see if it’s worth changing anything around.

17

love the aoe macro , the dps is really nice, but for the single target macro , the dps is super low.

18

Is there a reason multiple spells are left out of the macro cast?

19

probably the creator see that they dont need to be in the sequence. lol

20

Can it be converted to only GSE one click macros instead of World of Warcraft ontology macros
