I was so bummed doing worldquest on my 845 ele sham that I was about to quit legion. I decided to give enhance a go and I haven't looked back since. Suddenly I'm able to pull packs of 4-5mobs without breaking a sweat and I'm soloing elites like nothing.
If I could add a few changes to elemental:
Permanent elemental. Tanking pet, earth elemental. DPS, fire/wind element. FFS we are level 110 now and have never been shittier at controlling the elements.
Lava surge not a proc, but something more controllable akin to how frost mages crit on frozen targets.
Flameshock default spreads to nearby mobs when struck by lavaburst.
OFC a tuning of damage.
