Sad part is I only foresee them buffing dmg to ele, then we will just repeat the cycle in a few months. Buff/nerf/buff/nerf

Same could be said about Boomkin/SP/Feral/Ret or any hybrid dps.
tbh if they going to buff dmg to ele than we're going to be OP in a bit cause of the mastery & haste that we'll get with the next tear. The main problem is lightning bolt and being locked out of our nature school + a defensive CD. My suggested fixes are pretty easy:

- put spiritwalker's grace into feedback talent, together with elemental mastery (i.e. per cast of lb / cl your remaining cd gets reduced by 1-2-3 seconds).
- bring back ancestral something, 30% (?) reduced dmg taken while feared, stunned, silenced
- reduce the innate cast time of lightning bolt by 10% (talented), which will both work for pve & pvp, when you dare to cast it now you risk getting locked out of 75% of your abilities while it takes 1.8s and hits for < 10k on geared pvp'rs. 10% might sound not enough, but I've the 4 set pve bonus which reduces 10% lb cast time and it's such a big difference ...

That 'd fix way more than inventing new abilities/mechanics all the time and would prevent having to change damage coefficients. If rng gods are with you shaman has some incredible burst no other class has.

GL with the priest / lock combo. If it was me I'd go ele / priest btw
