Chain Lightning anyone?

Oh I hope every boss fight is gonna be a cleave/AOE fight! What you feel about the emphasize on our Aoe/Cleave though? Seems like they always wanna buff our AOE as much as possible, but when it comes to our single target (ele shamans) they seem a bit more reluctant just leaving it alone.

I hope not, or else we're going to be sat for every single target fights.

that neck looks nice for aoe fights but outside of aoe fights if we were to use a legendary neck it will most likely end up being http://legion.wowhead.com/item=13380...at-convergence for flameshock damage.


also: https://twitter.com/WarcraftDevs/sta...43195098705924 was a response to someone asking a question about a mage spec but hopefully that translates to all other specs as well and Ele/Enh can be competitive in single target and not just aoe.

The neck is really only going to be good for fights like Iron Maidens where you spam CL 75%+ of the time. Losing the other stats for the CL bonus likely wont be worth it on most fights.

sadly we won't be using our class trinket, but if we could, welcome to topping single target, a fully powered up flame shock deals around 1 million damage with its 1:40 duration, the neck proccing its remaining 90 seconds or whatever would be fucking amazing.

but a 30 second flame shock? pathetic it's a really shitty dot without our class trinket.

the class trinket will be very missed indeed and i really hope they remove the duration based on how much maelstrom you spend, should be 30 by default

Then what would be the point of the maelstrom cost? Are you wanting it to be free or do you want something else to scale with how much maelstrom you spend? Scaling the damage would be strictly worse than the duration, as you would have to always use it at max stacks. With the duration scaling, you can multi dot short-lived adds for good damage at no cost, and can use the ability while moving to increase the duration on your primary target (with damage scaling, you would replace your high damage flame shock with a low damage one).

That said, I do very much enjoy my 2 minute flame shock durations, and they will be missed.
