Very short enhance PvP clip

When I don't play with a healer I just toss a chain heal macro into my rotation, with all 4 spec'd into echo for pretty big heals.
I hope the CL changes make it to 5.2 (Jumps do 100% dmg instead of reduce dmg per jump), then I'll prob include that in my pvp rotation for Maelstrom stacks.

I've been debating specing into Instant Cast Elemental Blast x4.... to try and land 2 insta gibs out of the gate. Wolves/Eles/Ascendance out of the gate on Target1, then switch to target 2 and get them down to like 60-70% and 4x Instant EB.

The burst of enhancement shamans is great! I hope this will not be nerfed in 5.2 .

Owltoid i hope you make a longer video with your enhancement shamans :o

Just lost my job so there is a good chance that a longer video will be coming soon!

With the current hybrid healing it's not even worth wasting maelstrom procs on heals, they hit for too little. Elemental Blast, on the other hand, can hit like a truck.

For a lot targets 4x Asc Stormstrike/autohits are enough. In arena iam not able to insta kill a warrior with blood fury + Trinket + 5x Asc + Stormstrike + Autohits at the beginning.
Anyway, enhance burst ist the best burst for multiboxers atm.

With no pockethealer i choose the talent echo of elements and heal with chainheal. so i can trigger 1 chainheal up to 12 hits instead of 4.

Chain heal and heal are barely worth casting in PvP as an enhance, at the moment. 5.2 will make it better, but in my experience there is no comparison between a wet noodle heal and a burst of elemental blast. Over time, elemental blast kills just as many toons as ascendance does for me. Mage blinks? EB. Hunter shoots away? EB. Resto druid is in god-mode? Beat on him, cleanse, EB, dead.

I guess you have to get lucky with the crits, mastery procs, off hand attacks, etc. And a second GCD if there is time may be enough. I did a wargame with someone in my guild to test mitigation and my druid in bear form with might of ursoc and barkskin up (over 600k effective health) was killed in two GCDs.

We did find though that a geared DK in blood presence with AMS up cannot be killed in one GCD - they have about 430k HP, take 10% less damage, and half can be absorbed through AMS. It's over 700k damage that needs to be done. If they spec anti-magic zone, a kill definitely isn't happening.

*Takes down notes*... respec round robin Anti Magic Zone... check.

Prob with that is you lose lichborne...

inc fear bombs. But i have been thinking out of my 10 dks running two with AMZ and equiping them with pvp trinket and then the other 8 with lichbourne so i could pop that if im getting blown up

Except enhancement shaman cannot fear, nor can their healer unless they're running with a disc priest which I doubt. In that case you have trinket and if unead, will of the forsaken.

Was talking more of an arena setting here, but even if you ran into a quad enhance team in a BG you could survive without lichborne although you may have to eat a fear at some point if they have a lot of priests/warriors.

AH kk, well couple question on the arena enhance team setup.

How are you able to see the cd of the totems on all your toons? What addon?
