performanace of Ele shaman in 4.2?

[Nikita]

So Ive geared my shamans abit, they are now in 1/3 Bloodthirsty, 1/3 Vicious (s9) and 1/3 in s10 gear. Done a few arena matches, trying to get used to the play style again. Flame Shock, Lava Burst, Chain Lightning, Earth Shock combos will kill full PvP geared 120-140 k players. Huuuurrfuckingay! Ele shamans are once again, viable in arena. Congratz all

My kill macro:

/castsequence reset=/8 Vicious Gladiator's Badge of Dominance, Elemental Mastery, Lava Burst, Chain Lightning, Earth Shock

/castsequence reset=/8 Vicious Gladiator's Badge of Dominance, Elemental Mastery, Lava Burst, Chain Lightning, Earth Shock

done you cast flame shock?
also you can write that macro as
/use 13
/cast EM
/castsequence FS, LvB, CL, ....

You can use that combo to kill ppl without FS. But yeah, I do use FS but on another keybinding

FS makes it a guaranteed crit...why would you not use it?

me and a friend were discussing the burst potential of these combos

EM, Trinket, FS, UE, LvB, CL and Trinket, FS, UE LvB, EM, CL, as tot the 2nd one with the insta CL, would hit roughly the same time as the LvB.

what do you guys think would provide more burst potential, the insta LvB or the Insta CL after hard cast LvB?

My kill rotation is like this:

Keybind 1:

/castsequence reset=5 Flame Shock, Unleash Elements


Keybind 2:

/assist focus
/use Ruthless Gladiator's Badge of Dominance
/use 10
/use Lifeblood
/cast Elemental Mastery
/castsequence reset=/8 Lava Burst, Chain Lightning, Earth Shock


This hits like a damn truck!

I make sure that all 4 shamans have 7-9 lightning orbs on their shields CL doesnt take long too cast, as Im reforging everything to haste on my shamans.
