I can’t seem to figure out why my DPS on the raid target dummy is so much lower than my Ele Shamans. Both are equally geared with an average item level of 399, and I play both equally well. My Priest averages out around 25.5k over 4 minutes while my Shaman gets around 31.5k over the same amount of time. I start my rotation off by Mind Flaying 2 ticks x2, Pop Archangel, Mind Blast, Pop Shadowfiend, Mind Spike x3, Mind Flay until instant MB comes up, Mind Spike x3, Mind Flay until instant MB comes up, then continue our regular rotation (Vampiric Embrace, SW:P, Devouring Plague, Mind Flay filler, Mind Blast when off cooldown). My up time on Empowered Shadows and Dark Evangelism is close to 100% throughout the 4 minutes.
Below are the armory links for both of my characters. Any feedback would be appreciated.
