On top of that you want fs to go off before you cast LvB, casting an ES will only delay your LvB.
One could build up 9 stacks vs a dummy and then cast an ES upon joining a BG, but thats a pita as well to do.

I'm considering to just drop my talent point in fumination for my pvp spec as I consider it utterly useless in pvp. Lava burst with every single point of mastery you can get is for me the only way to go.
Same here.....I either find myself with maybe 6 stacks(waiting for higher stack) before a melee jumps in and removes a few or I refresh lightning shield back down to 3 by habbit. I do like the chance of 2% of mana on spellcast though....makes those long turtle AVs very fun.
