Secondly, I understand that I'll get 1 tic less from my flame shock but refreshing it before Lust falls off will compenstate a bit for that.
And finally, well you dont seem to understand that lava burst is still on CD when I use Ascendance. Also, dropping a Stormlash triggers the GCD, but using ascendance itself doesnt.. whether you macro Stormlash to Ascendance or not, you still have to wait for your GCD to refresh. In both cases you cant use Lava Burst before the GCD refreshes, therefore no loss of a lava burst overall.
Honestly, I'm pretty sure that you dont have much progression on your shaman, because you don't seem to know much about the usage of flame shock either. Shamans stack haste, therefore you're always gonna hit your Flame shock's haste breakpoint no matter what. You're already (supposedly) getting 13 tics of it before it runs out, with Lust it'll be 14 tics since you're above your breakpoint. If you know how to play Ele, you should kow that Flame Shock must never fall off, which means that it should be refreshed before it falls. Therefore, you probably wont even use that extra tic in the end..
A link to your character would be nice, I'm curious to see your stats and stuff. apparently I can't link mine yet, I haven't been posting enough on the forums or whatever.
P.S.: Unleash Elements is a complete waste of a GCD this tier.. It shouldn't even be on your bars imo.
