    I have been testing a few variations of this on beta, and will start testing this on live today. I was doing many rounds on the target dummies using the exact macro the OP used. I ended up getting the best results using two hotkeys on my main bar

    button#1 /castsequence reset=combat flame shock, unleash elements
    /button#2 /click hotbarbutton9
    /click hotbarbutton10 ( this is just for example.. i use bartender bars )

    then i just have a single target version of...

    /castsequence lightning bolt,lightning bolt ( its has to be a /castsequence for the fall through LvB to work)

    and a ae version with..

    /castsequence cl,lb,lb, ( CL is on a 3 second timer so in ae situations where theres too few mobs for earthquake this will cast cl then two LBs and repeat, at 85 it burns the mana up fast)

    So i hit button#1 to apply FS and UE. Using UE ups the dps a lot if you apply it to be used with the next LvB. UEs cooldown last the same time as the FS dot ( unglyhped ) So i watch the cooldown on UE to determine when to hit button #1 again.
    Due to the nature of LvBs being up at different times, due to Lava Surge resets, a LvB might not always be ready when you use your Unleash Elements, thats ok.. it will apply the bonus damage on your next LvB. You just don't want to waste it on a flame shock, thus why I made a macro casting FS then UE. Again, this will be for boxing and not if your playing a shamy solo, where you can time your FS applications and UE more precisely.

    You can also include everything in a single macro like the OPs and do ok,but i got upward of 2k+ more dps doing it my way.

    note: Unleash Elements is a lvl 81 spell, so its not in the OPs macro since hes testing on PTR at 80.

    Unleash Elements: Focuses the elemental force imbued in the Shaman's weaponry, with the concentrated effects depending on the enchantment unleashed.
    See individual weapon imbue spell tooltips for details regarding the effects of unleashing each.
    7% of base mana, 40 yd range, Instant cast, 15 sec cooldown

    So when used with Flametongue weapon enchant: ( Unleash Weapon : Unleashing this enchantment deals 1022.97 to 1213.03 Fire damage to an enemy target and increases the damage dealt by the Shaman's next Fire spell by 20%. )
