New player of 4 months and this guide made me play shaman - thanks its been amazing and now my main. small note - please add time stamps. I have referenced this guide many times and its awkward trying to find certain sections, but overall amazing guide and video!
I haven't played ele in a few expansions, but this is absolutely the reason I am back :p It feels great, looks great, and people seem to like having you around :p
This was a great video! I'm 595 Ele shammy for the first time and got told I need to learn my rotation because my dps was under the tank. CAme here and totally understand what I've been doing wrong! Here's hoping my next runs go better!
Thanks for the help my dude. It actually double my DPS. Sometimes we just follow guides without knowing the fuck our talents do. Now i know! Have a great day!
This is probably one of the easiest specs in the game right now. Considering the damage output by this BM hunter difficulty, you will see tons of elemental shamans. I have to admit as a ele main, I'm loving it and I'm happy to play it like this. It's easier than ever to use the full kit of all utility now.
ngl i used to play shamans until season 3 and 4 of DF when it was so heavily focused on lava build for m+, and i tried them out after the changes and i feel like im doing something wrong when i spam 1 button a lot
Thank you for this video, very good explanation. I'm a very casual player and it's good that I hear the instructions like I had 60 IQ. Finally a class and spec that I can play pretty good and not the last on the DPS meters. :) Keep up the good work!
I really enjoy how you explained this. I was doing farseer and not really liking it. This build and rotation seems much more fun. Thanks! Liked and subscribed! 😁👍
Hey Zuco! For the Storm Elemental rotation, I'll leave a macro that I use which is incredibly helpful. You've mentioned that you need to cast the Elemental Tempest skill, but you need to wait for it to use "Call Lightning" by itself, you cast its Tempest afterward. (when you summon the Elemental, you can right-click his Pet Bar so that his Tempest won't go off automatically (much like warlocks control their pets)). Anyway, hope it helps: #showtooltip /use [pet:Primal Storm Elemental]Tempest;[pet:Primal Fire Elemental]Meteor /use [known:Storm Elemental]Storm Elemental;[known:Fire Elemental]Fire Elemental
Yeah I know. I think this isn't necessary any more though. This past week, my Storm Ele has been waiting until he buffs himself, then casting Tempest in the correct order... But I just tried testing it again (and during this video), and my Storm Ele was back to his old ways, not using his abilities at the right time... So I'll keep testing it. This Macro is good and I do have it, but I'm hoping Blizz has just fixed it. We'll see.
Great vid, really appreciate it! On AOE rotation, what dictates how many chain lightnings you use before casting earthquake? is there a buff / set amount of maelstrom you wait for or is it just whatever keeps you from capping maelstrom? On ST, what made you decide to do a few more lightning bolts in a row at 11:50 (breaking the Lava B > Earth Shock > Lightning B)? Was there a buff/proc of something? Thanks!!
wow thats not so heavy as I thought. I am a lil bit of noob since I just playing my bm hunter but man we are in a bad state right now. was thinking about rolling enhance shammy but now I will level up elemental. thank you!
I love the energy and clarity you bring to Shaman, it genuinely makes me want to main it for TWW. But this class has way too many buttons! I literally can't fit them all on my action bars, nevermind remembering to use them all.

@@yo-mook On AOE you don't really use Lava Burst unless you are forced to move, then use it during that movement. Overwise, spamming Chain Lightning is the way.
Visuals look awesome but i do feel like its super basic. But thinking about other specs they can mostly also be dumbed down to 2 buttons or so especially for the main rotation. One thing i think ele needs is more maelstrom spenders on a cd would at least add some diversity to the main rotation every now and then.

Thanks for this! Isn't it beneficial to tab target on AOE to spread around the Lightning Rod or are all targets that CL hits affected? Was under the impressions that only the primary target gets the LR.
@@MastersOfTheWinds haha yeah... It actually was this way a few weeks ago, but they've fixed it now, thankfully. You can tunnel on 1 target and the EQ will automatically spread L-Rod's to other targets. Awesome QoL.
Hello Zuco! Just found your videos (up and coming Elemental player I hope!!). But I wanted to ask, are we not pressing Lava Burst whenever we get a lava surge proc? I’m going to try and follow your rotation and guide to a T. But I wanted to ask. Thank you for the video!!
In aoe, it's really not worth it. Casting a Chain Lightning is going to deal much more damage. If you are forced to move because of a mechanic or ground swirly, etc, absolutely use that Lava Surge proc and press Lava Burst while on the move. But if you have time to cast spells, no, ignore Lava Surge procs in aoe and focus on harder hitting abilities. In ST, it's a much different story. Casting Lightning Bolt is still more valuable then Lava Burst, but weaving in Lava Bursts whenever you have a Surge proc is def worth.
Wish I could double thumbs up the response. Thank you for the knowledge and tip!! Very much appreciated the videos. Do you happen to have a discord channel? Either way, I’ll for sure be checking your channel for new videos on ele sham! Hope you have a blast in TWW!
@@ZucoWoW thanks for the vid I also was wondering the same thing, I saw in the aoe rotation though you did send it a few times. i am new to ele as well so I am missing why we using it a few times if we get a proc but you mentioned ignore it and use chain lightning only?
There's actually different ways to play this class. I like how you can pop the totems you need then when in a pinch reset the cooldowns on them. Totems are great for cc and taking out mobs of bad guys.
So is Tempest just an elevated Chain lightening? There's no spell button for it and i don't see it as a passive, so when it proc, do i just keep hitting lightening/chain-lightening?
@@neony123 For a pure ST fight, yes, but in aoe you def want it to add occasional Flame Shocks in order to maximize your Prime Wave damage and haste buff
If you precast Stormkeeper before the pull, you'll get your 2 stacks... You use them, then the extra Stormkeeper stack from Rolling Thunder will kick in, and you can use it.
Hey Zuco I’m maining shaman in TWW thanks in part to your videos . I was on the fence about feral but I leveled that first in DF and wanted to lvl something I have never mained before ( well got KSM with ele in SL ) and I saw your video about your main and why you chose it . Started messing around on the beta and ele feels fun ! In addition , resto feels rewarding when your knowledge of the dungeon and spec connect . Im subbed and I look forward to your future TWW videos . 🫡
@@Gompang2e Because of the Flash of Lightning talent. It cools down every CD that we have, including Prime Wave, Storm keeper and Storm Ele. It gets you back into your heavy hitting abilities.
With thunderstrike ward now a thing, have they changed elemental's loot table so they only get 1 handers and shields? It would feel pretty bad if you use the shield imbue but kept getting staff drops.
Question, I am coming back from a very big break. I tried this build out and I noticed I had little to no lava burst procs. What can I do to increase the LB procs?
Make sure your Flameshocks never go down. If you have good Flameshock uptime, you'll get enough Lava Surge procs. This build also doesn't really need Lava Burst that much. It's much more focused on the Lightning abilities.
Ele shamans looks much more appealing to me now with all lightning build, might swap from boomkin to ele shaman foe this xpac. Only thing im concerned of are the survivability, are they getting anything more in the def kit kow then what they have had previous? Dont wanna end up always dying in higher keys only cause shaman 😣
@@mattmay1020 Yep exactly... Something like 30% haste or a bit more, than you can go mastery... There is also a case to be made for Crit though... There are a TON of Crit synergies in the Stormbringer and Ele spec tree now, it might be worth going Crit
@@yosoum Generally no... This will feel bad right now when the mobs last for 8 seconds each... But once you get into higher keys, you'll drop Liquid Magma Totem and use Prime Wave, then go back to casting Chain Lightnings... Your Lava Surge will proc in roughly 5 seconds or so and you can pop off with it. Obviously if you get extremely unlucky and the Lava Surge doesn't proc, then you'll need to manually cast a LB to get the haste buff rolling.
I realize this is off topic but considering your depth of knowledge on everything Shaman, do you have a sense of what hero talents Resto Shaman will bring to Raid?
@@Duck4Evers Farseer is much more efficient for raid. Lots of Riptide spreading... You'll have Ancestors up all the time helping with extra healing, all for free. Mass AOE healing is a bit worse for Farseer, but it has that consistency and efficiency. Totemic can have bigger mass aoe heals with tons of free Chain Heals from your totems. It's more expensive on mana, but your Healing Rain from Surging totem heals for a lot more, so stacked groups of allies is awesome for Totemic. Both trees have their merits, you'd need to play around with them and see how it feels.
For earthshocks damage buff. But I havent seen anyone else recommend that. Maybe its not worth it , Im currently just casting lighting bolts for ST and works great. Lava burst only when I get a proc
@@jayi100 There's a new EQ talent that makes your EQ cast on the enemy you have selected. So you can have your mouse wherever you want and your EQ will automatically go onto your target.
Why use lava burst at all in the single target rotation? seems like even the crit does less than a solid lightning bolt and it comes out slower. Thoughts?
You only use lava burst when you get a proc so it is instant cast. No proc no cast. Additionally if you cast it while flame shock is active on the enemy it it is a guaranteed crit.
do i wanna cast earthquake every time it "procs" (gets flashy)? im kinda confused how many chain lightnings are betweens the earthquakes. Or is it just about not capping maelstorm?
If you EQ on the same selected target twice in a row (because MS is full), will the damage be doubled or do we need to wait with EQ until the prev. one is done?
As a filthy casual who basically does just world content and LFR (plus Delves in TWW) which of the two would be better suited, Stormbringer or Farseer?
I think Farseer is better. The Ancestors will also heal you if you cast a heal on yourself. They are up basically all the time. The Farseer build cools down offensive and defensive abilities like Cap Totem, Stone Bulwark Totem, etc, so it offers more flexibility and sustain for open world content like hard Rare bosses or Delves.

As a filthy casual who basically does just world content and LFR (plus Delves in TWW) which of the two would be better suited, Stormbringer or Farseer?
I think Farseer is better. The Ancestors will also heal you if you cast a heal on yourself. They are up basically all the time. The Farseer build cools down offensive and defensive abilities like Cap Totem, Stone Bulwark Totem, etc, so it offers more flexibility and sustain for open world content like hard Rare bosses or Delves.
