update 1/31/26: Here’s my update for patch 12.0

In this setup the only difference between ST and AOE is within the WoW macros. Final Verdict for ST, and Divine Storm for AOE.

Important:

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

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: Retribution Paladin Mythic+ PvE Guide - Midnight Pre-Patch

WoW Macros

The following WoW macros use the “/click GSE_NAME” command to activate the gse sequence of the same name as shown below. Note: this method only works because I use spell/item blocks inside of gse but not macro blocks, which would break this method if attempted.

RET_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.
#showtooltip
/targetenemy [noharm][dead]
/click SCG_RET
/cast [mod:shift] Word of Glory
/cast [mod:shift] Divine Protection
/cast [known:Hammer of Light] Wake of Ashes
/cast Final Verdict

RET_AOE

  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.
#showtooltip
/targetenemy [noharm][dead]
/click SCG_RET
/cast [mod:shift] Word of Glory
/cast [mod:shift] Divine Protection
/cast [known:Hammer of Light] Wake of Ashes
/cast Divine Storm

In both of these, press and hold down shift for for Word of glory if you need a little bit of self healing in a fight. This will now also cast divine protection on demand if able for extra protection.

GSE Macros

Import the following gse macro which contains all the macro sets I use for this class, but do not keybind it.

For some reason neither Final Verdict or Divine storm is cast when using these macros. Same with the other class macros. The /cast spell line never fires.

Actually Word of Glory wont fire off unless i change the order. Don’t macros run until the first “true” statement?

#showtooltip
/targetenemy [noharm][dead]
/cast [mod:shift] Word of Glory
/cast [known:Hammer of Light] Wake of Ashes
/click SCG_RET
/cast Final Verdict

I decided to make a small update to the gse side of the macro to increase the chances of final verdict/divine storm being able to fire off.

From my understanding, macros will only attempt to fire off the first spell that triggers a global cooldown but won’t fire off any other spells after that trigger a global cooldown. However, it is possible to have more than 1 spell fire off at the same time along with any other action in a single macro so long as all of the other spells/actions don’t trigger a global cooldown. That, I believe is what allows me to be able to craft the WoW macros the way I do, though I’m still working out some of the intricacies of how the /click command behaves in relation with the /cast command in the WoW macro I’m making.

I’m also curios in how you’re spamming the macro. I personally use one of my mouse buttone to spam it at a speed of about 125 ms when held down (though 100ms might work better for this specific sequence.

Thanks for the response. I actually moved the macro to a actionbar key and use the corresponding key on my mouse. I use default gse settings though and manually press the mouse key.

I’m glad you found a method that works for you. While I don’t know if this is the case for you but in order to get the macro to work in the way I originally intended this step is essential, otherwise the /click MACRO_NAME won’t work properly:

I’ve tried different macros created by others on my Ret and Ele Shaman. You do make the best for my play style and appreciate the work. Will be sending a paypal donation on payday wednesday.

I just updated this macro set. Seems I’m able to move my original posts when I update them instead of start a new one. SO I’ll do that for the remaining classes I have yet to complete. (I’m hoping to finish the rest of them by Monday evening)
