4) This is moreso a finger pointing at the raid itself. Shammy work best when there is a stack of people someplace. If on most fights you're not allowing this to occur, shammy suffer as HR is our strongest spell by far. Even on 10man garalon, a heavy movement fight, when we did it heals and dps basically were close enough together and it was known that as crush approached, a HR would be down inside a target leg and dps needs to stand in it. If you're not giving a shaman the raid awareness he needs, don't be surprised if he suffers. So his HR should be higher, and the raid should be accommodating to allow his HR to be higher.
5) UE works with HR. most every HR you cast should be UE powered.
6) CD's aren't being used. I'm seeing some fights with like 1 HTT and 0 ascendance. While they don't need to be used on CD, they should be used every burst period in rotation with other raiders bust CD's. Every fight should see 3-4 CD's used. Not 1-2. And possibly he's using ascendance wrong? It's best used right after a UE powered HR, you then get 10 full seconds of HR procing mists + chain spam on a riptided target. It should almost be as powerful as HTT if done right.
