First impressions of new shaman dps / builds

Hi.

How are you all finding the new dps of the shamans? By the looks of the patch notes should be a decent PvE dps boost.

Anyone got any tried and tested talent trees? Im on EU server, so still got a while before i can have a go myself.

This is what i was thinking: http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?sham...h=000000000000 (With 3 other points going where you fancy, obviously one shammy to take TOW)

Any other suggestions?

Looks good cept for me I move the 3 points in elemental weapons over to GW and Shamanistic focus.

Then get rid of Elemental Oath (2) and put those 2 and the 3 left over into reverberation.

Ok first thing totem of wrath is a MUST you see a good bit of difference and then put the other two in ghost wolf helps alot in pvp.

humm ToW does seem nice, maybe go 4 points to reverberation then one 1 for ToW

On my 5 I have the main spec'd like this:

You do realize that elemental oath now gives a +10% dmg buff when clearcasting right?

I'll be visiting Trollgore later today, but my plan is to go with:

http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?sham...h=000000000000

Question; Do all shamans need 2 points in oath to get the 10% dmg buff when its activated?

It says you get 5 percent more probable to crit from elemental oath, after you crit.

Seems that .4 seconds off of 6 seconds is more dps ... well its umm 6.66 percent more dps on shock spells.

Ok assuming a crit is 100percnet more damage 5 percent probability is ummm 5 percent more dps, per player. For a group you get 25 percent more damage time the probaility you will get a crit and other will crit within 15 seconds ...

Well I guess its wise to get one EO per group then....

The tooltip says "In addition, while Clearcasting from Elemental Focus is active, _you_ deal 10% more spell damage" so I'm assuming the buff only applies to the individual shaman. The opposite would be insanely OP for raids :-)
