Totem timers, covers it all. Originally Posted by Snixs

The rotation i'm trying to follow is the one mentioned in the guide on these forums.
Tried a few addons herein elementarist which sucked ass... :b
yours sincerly, Snixs

I use totemtimers, I only use it for totems/lightning shield, I've placed it near my action bar so I can constantily check LS stacks and I just use the blizzard interface power aruas for lava surge procs

I use power auras for telling me when my Elemental Mastery cooldown is up, and when I don't have a Fire totem down. Blizzard default power-aura-type-thing for Lava Surge.
I use ShieldsUp for tracking my lightning shield, which is essentially a number on my screen that I have resting right on top of my toon, with a moderate transparency.
I use ClassTimers for flameshock, with a thin bar that sits just above my cast bar. The text is just small enough that I can barely read the numbers on it, but I've been playing with it for a while so I know what length corresponds to what duration.

Get the addon Ovale Spell Priority. It will be the only thing you need to pull off your rotation although I also use power auras and classtimes, mostly to track my lightning charges.

The same people who say it's so easy to play are the people who also claim we're terrible DPS at the bottom of all the charts. Because they're not doing it properly. Originally Posted by Lockrocker75

Everyone who posts that the ROTATION is simple has already conceded that they have no idea how to play elemental shaman. Unless by rotation, you meant priority system... Originally Posted by Jathro

Totem timers and shaman's friend mods are all you need.
While the single target spell priority system is pretty much laid out, being able to know what to cast on the run is probably what separates the great eles from the average eles.

Addons i use for Elemental:
ShieldsUp - Lighting Shield ( and any other ) orbs tracking. It's an number u can move anywhere on your screen and set it's scale. I usualy put that number near my own health/mana frame. Similar somehow with a rogue's combo points.
MikScrollingBattleText - Lava Surge proc. U can set a sound when the Lava Surge triggers for those who play with in-game sound.

I don't use any addon for that, I just look to the right corner for when LS is 7+ stacks , check my screen for any lavasurge messages and once in a while I check when I need to refresh my fire totem.
Wait no, I do use one thing: Quartz. For seeing how much time there's left on my FS
