If you cast earth shock or EQ for SOP buff and than press PrimWave, your pwave will spread too like a flame shock and put up 2 flame shock and than you can flame shock 2 targets again and now you have 4 Flame shock target without put down LMT if its on cd at that moment but you have atleast 50maelstrom.

I’m finding this video in season 4, this gameplay and beautiful display of meatball prowess is also relatively based on being 4 pieced? I’m doing a decent job replicating this rotation, but I’m only 3 pieced atm and feeling like it’s definitely lacking that bit of a push with full bonuses.

You should be largely ignoring maelstrom overcapping, trying to spend your maelstrom every time youre near capping it(which very often in aoe can be almost every other global) is just not the play as you end up casting a lot less LvB over the course of a key. EQ is still undertuned relative to how strong, and how much synergy there is with LvB/PW and the tier set with the current build. Its degenerate gameplay but, most of the time the correct global to press is LvB. Youre mostly using EQ to proc SoP, or to proc windspeakers when youre out of LvB charges or dont have an instant cast proc. There are some sustained high target scenarios(breakpoint is generally around 8-10t) where youre pressing EQ frequently, but that mostly applies to EB, and some pulls in a few other keys.

Nice video ! I don't get why you use totemic recall tho. I mean, I pop Fire ele, I FS 1 target, I drop LMT, it apply 3 FS, then I PW -> FS and I have 6 targets with FS which is the maximum. Feel like your 2nd LMT is only for 1 target and then you don't have totemic recall + LMT for the pack after. I there something I don't get ? Thanks :) Why TF can't we have 8 flameshocks running tho :(

Totemic Recall is for the next pack... It's critical for continuous aoe damage on each pack to have LMT up. Getting it back from Totemic Recall helps keep that AOE damage going.

I've been playing a lot of Ele this week on my Resto Shaman; as you know Resto doesn't favour Mastery so I have been struggling, I'm currently high haste/crit. I get about 120K single target and about 270-310k on the grouped dummies. Are there any builds suitable for low mastery?
@Ermji
8 ай бұрын
I would just save up some gear from doing dungeons. It kind of sucks that Elemental Shaman has exactly the opposite stat priority of Restoration Shaman. I think lightning build is more Haste/Crit based but the issue is that the current Tier set totally doesn't synergize with the lightning build since its all based on Lava Burst. The thing why Haste and Mastery are now over Crit is compared to previous patches is because Lava Burst is you highest damaging spell and pretty much always crits so there is no value in having crit at all and mastery is really strong cause casting multiple Lava Bursts makes it so much stronger. Vers is ok but not the strongest stat. If you can get as low crit as possible from your gear then you should be ok. If you really don't want to do any of that maybe taking Echoes of Great Sundering or Mountain Will Fall will perform better but not sure.

Those numbes aren't terrible by any means. If you don't have any Mastery you're just going to struggle to generate damage with this current tier set. It focuses entirely on Lava Burst overloading to help cool down Prime Wave. You could abandon the Lava Burst talents (like Windspeakers), and try indexing into more aoe damage with a 2nd Stormkeeper if you wanted, but I'm not sure it would produce nearly as much dmg.

I'm a new Elemental shaman this season! So I got a question.. Why would you do [Primordial Wave] into [Flame Shock] and then [Liquid Magma Totem] twice? Wouldn't it be better to cast [Primordial Wave] then go [Liquid Magma Totem] twice since it would give the max 6x[Flame Shock]'s on targets and then spend the [Surge of Power] on [Lava Burst] to reduce [Fire Elemental] cooldown?
@ZucoWoW
8 ай бұрын
On the packs where you had Liquid Magma Totem twice, yes, you can just drop double LMT, into a Prime Wave and start blasting... But often the pulls just don't line up that perfectly and LMT can often put Flame Shocks on the same target that already has one. This isn't supposed to happen, but in all of my testing on training dummies and in dungeons it still does. Take the first pack of the dungeon in this video. The tank need 5-6 seconds to gather all of the mobs together. During that time, I'm not going to throw down my double LMT, I gotta wait until he's gathered everything together for Max DMG. So while I'm waiting, I should be flame shocking and Prime waving... There's lots of scenarios where you do have the ideal setup from the start and in those situations, Prime Wave + double LMT Is perfect.

I'm pretty sure im missing something but heres my question... why resete magma totem at all on the same pull? Isnt flame shock capped at 6 targets? My understanding is wouldn't it be better to fire elemental, Primordial wave,flame shock thats 3 flame shocks up now then only 1 magma totem to have a total of 6 flame shocks up now and save the second magma totem for next pull?
@ZucoWoW
6 ай бұрын
You can absolutely for sure. Magma Totem actually does a lot of uncapped AoE damage on top of the Flame Shock spreading. In super high pulls (like 3-4 packs = 15+ mobs), there is a good case for dropping 2 LMT for the damage. Those kinda of pulls usually take a long time, so LMT would be back on the next pull. Even if it wasn't back up, if you're taking Surge of Power, you can easily get 4-5 Flame Shock's going quickly with the right sequencing. :)

Some packs are so big that's it's worth using double LMT for the AOE damage it does. It does lots of uncapped AOE damage besides adding Flame Shocks to enemies. Typically it's always better to use 1 LMT per pack, but there are some special cases where you could double up. If you're running Surge of Power, adding Flame Shocks to enemies without LMT isn't actually too hard at all. You can easily get 3-4 FS's going quickly into a pack.

LMT is Hasted. Casting it before getting Splintered Elements (up to 40% Haste) i think is a bad idea. Especially if you are dropping it twice. I think the best opener would be SOP Prim Wave>SOP FS, Lavaburst, LMT, Tot Recall, Lavaburst, LMT
@ZucoWoW
8 ай бұрын
Generally, getting the maximum amount of haste from Prime Wave is going to be better for damage then using it before casting LMT. If I cast Prime Wave, into Flame Shock, I get 3 Flame Shocks, then cast my Lava Burst and only get 32% haste (20% base +4% for each FS target). Then I could drop the LMT and get them hasted as you're saying. The issue with that is that I've lost the maximum amount of haste I could be getting for my Lava Burst casts, which is the primary damage source for this build, by a long shot. If you look at overall dmg at the end of each dungeon, Lava Burst is 42-50% of the overall, whereas LMT is much lower, around 5-6%. Instead, using double LMT into Prime wave, guarantees I'll get the max value from Splintered Elements, which ends up being 44% haste (20% + 4% x6 FS). That 44% haste window allows us to send way more Lava Bursts and do a lot more damage with this build.
