finally something that plays smoother than icefury build and is actually fun. not sure if this is enough for me to main elemental again but it’ll definitely be an alt.
you should try using the searing flames talent instead of magma chamber. the malestorm you get from searing flames makes it so you can get way more earthquakes out and on the dummies i can have ascendance up for over 2 minutes. i also use aftershock instead of surge of power to be able to get it to last more than 2 minutes
Literally the same with me as well. I love my boomy but I love ele too. I want to pick one over the other vs hopping back and forth. I don't get that much time as it is, I wanna make sure I pick right. They both feel good, but I am noticing that elemental seems to do better damage overall in single target and aoe, especially the icefury build, in myopinion, still the best build for ele. Fire builds are close, but not quite there yet. I will probably go elemental.
Heya, awesome video, I'm glad ele is shaping up well. May I please know what WA youre using? They're so much better than mine and I would love the upgrade haha
Good content mate, thanks for sharing. One piece of advice if I may - when explaining something, you need to slow down with your speech, as it is really hard to understand.
On paper the lightning build seems better but with the high mobility required in dungeons I was having a lot of issues with the lightning build since there’s so much hard casting. Just what worked best for me
Isn’t the flame shock talent to the right of magma chamber better than magma chamber? Not a big deal, but I think the raw 1 maelstrom per tick (1/50 one earthquake)is better than the .8% damage per tick of earthquake from magma chamber . Unless you would overcap.
A few questions i see coming back here wich im also wondering myself , flameshocking outside of liquid magma totem isnt worth it? And we do not MOTE our EQ anymore?
@Naesam oooo starting tomorrow 11/15: Elemental Lightning Rod can now trigger from Lava Beam in addition to Chain Lightning. Not sure how we will get that far down to get the needed lightning rod and ascendance/magma chamber etc
Yeah I don't think you would. You only got 10 points to spend in the last 3 rows, you want 4 in Primordial Wave and 4 in Ascendance, doesn't leave you with enough to reach Lightning Rod - and even then don't think it'd be worth sacrificing Magma Chamber and Magma Totem
I hate that they’re just buffing it without fixing it’s core issues. If you take DRE the proc rate is WAY too low and imo would need to be at least like 12% chance to proc to put you in ascendancy enough to feel fun. Maybe nerf the lava surges that come out and hit all you targets by 50% or something? If you go ascendance then after you setup your initial flame shocks and prim wave you’re letting them fall off cause you’re trying to spam beam and extend as long as possible. Granted it’s fast pace and big dam, which I’m also not going to lie is very fun. But then you’re back to a chain lightning earthquake bot which feels like shit since you have 80% of your talent points into this lava blast/fire build
Have you tried the elemental overload tree instead of ascendance? Atleast the First 2 points since lava overload reduces Primordial as well I thought It would have been a nice build even tho I havent tested It personally
Is there a reason to use Surge of Power over Aftershock? I feel like Aftershock should add more value for extending Ascendance on everything at or below 5 targets. Not even sure about 6+ targets. Stormkeeper into 6 target feels super strong but doesn't that overcap maelstrome?
I'm no expert but if you do the math stormkeeper does like 40% more damage with surge of power (assuming 6 targets) because it scales exponentially which is a massive deal. Also the surge of power provides a ton of single target maelstrom/damage with the extra 2 lightning bolts. And that's with 100% of spender casts, whereas getting resets on aftershock only gives value 25% of the time. Sure aftershock might keep you in ascendance for a bit longer but even in ascendance you can see he's casting lighting bolts with his surges because its just that good to get the bonus overloads. Finally, he's getting stacks of bonus damage from his flame shock talent. casting spenders less often leans harder into that talent to allow it to get higher stacks before spending. I could be wrong though maybe its still just as good to roll aftershock. But that's my take on the choice there
@@MrsFiendly I was wandering that myself, but I think it's situational, I think surge would def add more burst but aftershock extended ascendance give you more lava beams plus overloads so depending on how long packs last getting a few more 5 target lava beams with chance of overloading might overall do more damage then a few less 6 target lava beams, also don't count out all the free earthquakes your casting as well which I feel would make up for that extra target on lavabeams. Also on ST with alot I'd haste and aftershock procs I've been able to extend ascend to last entire boss fights. Longest duration I got too was around 50 sec
@@thelastspectre8141 I guess at the end of the day this is probably a "spend a while simming both on a million different target counts" type situation. I can definitely see a world where aftershock is better. I've just been having way too much success with surge as of late to just write it off completely for all inning on your asendance window.
Hello! One question ❓ I did divide those 687 lava beam hits threw 129 casts and it is above 5 hits per cast but wowhead tooltip saying it hits 3 targets. How many targets does Lava beam hits?
@@stonerkebab9498 there is separate point in details showing lava beam overload damage 😁 so it's not it probably. I found that lava beam interact with sourge of Power talent adding one more target but it would be still only 4
any viable build that doesnt use icefury has my attention
Wait you don't like using icefury? I do agree it feels a little wonky to use in my rotation though but the cleaving frostshocks are sick AF
@@sy-ky_buddy4603 Cuz its not fun and it feels horible to press icefury. LMT is much better obtions.
I'm glad they finally bumped up the fire talents. They were very lackluster. Single target Lightning build feels real bad
Super cool that fire builds look competitive now. That’s what I was most excited for in the tree. Prob gonna main Ele now.
Thanks for the vid man. Didn’t expect the “fire build” to look like this tbh but turned out awesome. Super pumped for DF ele!
finally something that plays smoother than icefury build and is actually fun. not sure if this is enough for me to main elemental again but it’ll definitely be an alt.
might just be the first time since... ever... that lava beam actually does something relevant
I would kill for a video guide. first time sham main falling in love3 with the class
you should try using the searing flames talent instead of magma chamber. the malestorm you get from searing flames makes it so you can get way more earthquakes out and on the dummies i can have ascendance up for over 2 minutes. i also use aftershock instead of surge of power to be able to get it to last more than 2 minutes
im not sure how it works in a key. maybe you dont need ascendance up for 2 minutes but maybe in high keys it will be the move
I'm between elemental and boomkin! Which would you suggest? I'm quite shocked by the boomkins damage as i've been hearing they're not so great..
Literally the same with me as well. I love my boomy but I love ele too. I want to pick one over the other vs hopping back and forth.

Im using Fire build in m+ but i still dont know whats better DRE or Ascendance? Btw casting SK in the Ascendance window is huge dps loss man :D
rotation vid soon? pretty new, so i def could use it!
Hey man, thanks for the updates! You don't by any chance have a prio list for ST and AOE? Or if anyone has a clearer idea I'd very much appreciate it
Great video as allways man.
Can you test lightning build whitout echoes pls?
New to ele sham here! Do you have a breakdown of the rotation for single and multiple targets? Great vid! Excited to try this out.
Any new guide for 10.0.5? I feel like there should be more to it.
How do you ascendance and the ascendance prof? Thought they shared the same choice node
He only has Ascendance. The WeakAura just resets its animation each time he uses EQ/ES to extend Ascendance
hello! nice video man!
Can you say the name of your addons? Especialy that of the spell bars and vorage
Hey, thanks for the video.
Any chance you could share somewhere the nameplate profile you've used here? Is that Plater?
Cheers :)
Hey man.
It seems you have a "mouseover" earthsquake macro? Do you care to share that?
Cheers bro :)
Hey Naesam (and the comment section). What's the name of those health bars? They are really nice looking!
Heya, awesome video, I'm glad ele is shaping up well. May I please know what WA youre using? They're so much better than mine and I would love the upgrade haha
Those are the luxthos class weakaura
The second they make earthquake castable at target or let it work with @target macro I would play this immediately.
Just use at cursor
Yup, having to use the cursor is quite annoying for me too.
How are you procking ascendAnce without deeply rooted?
nice man , whats your rotation ?
Any plans to do a guide how to play this? :)
Looks cool did you try it out with DRE?
Your new UI looks sharp. Is that available somewhere?
nevermind. I found it
@@calebstephens628 Where exactly did you find it :D

i love the fire playstyle of shaman!, and two, your nameplates for enemies look amazing how do you do that?
Plater addon
Good content mate, thanks for sharing.
One piece of advice if I may - when explaining something, you need to slow down with your speech, as it is really hard to understand.
Great video! May I ask what stats take priority in this build? Mastery and haste?
Is there a possibility that we could see a single target raid build?
Out of this build and your other one in the prepatch guide which do you prefer?
Why don't you spread flame shock more? Noticed you don't seem to be outside of magma totem.
in 6+ targets its worth to just surge of power ur chain lightning/lava beam pretty sure
@@Dilllll26 Thank ye.
I like the play style of fire but it’s easier to spam lightning earthquake and have the same or better dps
The lightning build revolves around Icefury and Electrified Shocks, which makes the rotation a lot clunkier than this fire build tbh
On paper the lightning build seems better but with the high mobility required in dungeons I was having a lot of issues with the lightning build since there’s so much hard casting. Just what worked best for me
Isn’t the flame shock talent to the right of magma chamber better than magma chamber? Not a big deal, but I think the raw 1 maelstrom per tick (1/50 one earthquake)is better than the .8% damage per tick of earthquake from magma chamber . Unless you would overcap.
I think the increase from magma chamber got doubled, not in the patch notes but I remember people talking about it.

might return for DF, ele shaman, but will people want me to heal or will the dmg be solid enough for people to ask for me to dps?

Resets liquid magma totem
Is that a weak aura for your maelstrom bar? Can you share plz
Can you share this build?
i like ur gui name plates option, mine is fucked up. how can i see enemy health bars like u?

what thundering weakaura are you using? it looks way better than mine
For this talent set up would you recommend mastery/crit or mastery/haste ?
Yes
Is it already in retail? The buffs for the Fire build?
whats ur earthquake macro
were one of the 100k specs now pog?!
PSA: DH/Fury/Demo are 200K specs lol.
What's Stat priority,
Rotation= spam lava beam till you finger hurts
how do you transform into female ascendance form sometimes
Horn of Valor trinket
need your UI setup :D
I'm not sure why but I really hate Icefury so when I saw Fire builds just bypass it entirely I'm just like... yup, that's the one for me.
Is fire build the best now? Cause I really really don’t wanna play icefury. Fire looks like so much more fun
the moonkin perform good for the nerf
Hello, anyone knows how the flameshock spreads on the entier group mob so fast ?
Liquid Magma Totem
@@M4ST3RB4ZZ Thanks a lot :)
What's extending ascendance?
Talents underneath ascendance in the tree. Extends when you use maelstrom spenders.

well im 28k dps in raid as ele shaman with ilvl388.... this sucks. patch ele shaman pls
Guide when bro Im watching details all the time what you are casting lul
LOL 3 buttons :O
What an AOE FIESTA...pulling packs every time, no crowdcontrol needed, just spam AOE - Healer mana didnt go below 80% once. #LOL MODERN WOW
yes and its super fun. who doesnt like big numbers? there is also plenty of dungeons with 3 mobs where if one cast goes off it wipes the whole team
Maybe it's possible to get your wa?🫡
