    T18 2pc: Don’t change your rotation priorities. ES20 trumps everything, but if you use ES15 & it procs just before Lava Burst comes off cooldown, cast Lava Burst and then go back to Earth Shock.

    T18 4pc: Don’t change your rotation priorities here either. You’ll naturally maintain a high buff uptime, and there’s no point in trying to “game” this.

    You don't care if it's a staff or a 1h/offand, just go for the one who has the better stats.

    BiS weapon for elemental is going to be Archimonde's 1hander (as it was H&F's mace for BRF)

    apparently an elemental shaman got rank 1 on the first boss by using the lfr set bonus from brf, and I just wanted to ask how that works, it sounds like it just drops patches of aoe lightning dmg on the ground, does it have unintendedly high spellpower scaling or no aoe cap or just really good for the fight?

    yes the lfr set is completely broken, i've seen it used in LFR, it does as much damage as EQ does, so basically it's like droppig EQ twice, specced into echo? EQ 4 times.

    i was thinking about getting it for timewalking, but timewalking is pretty crappy, and fuck running LFR for weeks for 4 set lol.

    i wouldn't worry about it though, rank 1's are often padded or cheesed, lol often ok 99.9% of the time, just look at beastlord every rank 1 is 1 guy on the pack beasts and 13 people doing single target, locks doing 180k dps, enhance doing 32k because he's not allowed to fire nova so the lock can pad, pointless bullshit padding.

    It's terrible, he's just a dumb cheeser who had his raid let him aoe shit for his e-peen. Hellfire assault isn't about aoe, it's about focusing down the siege weapons and the warlocks when in demonform.

    Not sure the exact comparison between stat food and Felmouth Frenzy so hopefully someone more mathy can comment. Looks like the frenzy averages about 2.5-3% of my total damage on most bosses.

    I've been using it for our splits tonight, seems to have pretty high variance, it was usually about 1% of my damage, but has been up to 2,3% once, doesn't seem to do much for cleave/aoe fights, I'm not sure how you get it to do 2,5-3% on average however.

    Hey all, my brother is gearing up his elemental shaman. Despite the classes issues, how relevant is the info in the OP for 6.2?

    so does chain lightning buff EQ when it hits two targetS? you mention it as part of your cleave rotation

    Chain lightning needs to hit at least 3 targets to buff EQ.

    Ok so i can´t find answer in other topics, hope i didnt miss it. But how will elemental work with double 2 piece? My ele shaman is and alt in a casual raiding guild and currently i still got the 4 piece T17, but soon i might have the 2 piece T18. When reading both the 2 pieces it seems to be contradicting eachother as one requires you to use lightning shield stacks while the other has a chance not to consume any lightning stacks.

    Anyone knows if it still works? would be silly if it didnt and like to know if double 2 piece is worth it over T17 4 piece.

    (The T17 pieces are heroic and T18 is normal)

    The wording on the 2pc can be a bit confusing. For clarity, you can think of it as "refunding" the stacks instead of not using them. That is, if you use earth shock at 18 stacks and the 2pc procs, you will get an 18 stack fulminate off then instantly jump back up to 18 stacks of lightning shield with your earth shock CD reset. With that, it will work perfectly fine with 2pc t17 (and 4pc t18 when you get it).

    Also: yes, 2+2 is slightly better than 4pc t17, especially if you are swapping to EM.
