Shaman rotations

[Xraptorx]

What do you guys typically use as best pvp rotation for elemental shaman? Was hoping to have just a few different keys that I need to press and make it easy. Would use pally for heals and run 4x elemental for dps.

Gear? Well none to speak of. Currently all in green lv 333 gear, but 5 hours or so in av weekend will hopefully get me a few thousand honor and sone gear ( honor gear or converted jp gear to help with damage output)

Cannot speak to the rotation.

I'm using Mercurio's two-step, mindless mash away macro.
I don't have a problem with their DPS, but don't have any damage meters on.
And they're killing mobs at this stage, not full honor geared opponents.

I'd have Tremor totems, on round-robin.
I'd glyph one of your Healing Stream totems, for the resists, and have that shaman always drop a Healing Stream.
I'd have a key for everyone to drop a Grounding Totem.
I'd have a key for everyone to drop Earth Elementals and another for Fire Elementals.
I would not include Searing Totem, in the mindlessly mashed macro... as that will remove the Fire Elementals; which means a key for everyone to drop Searing Totems, and to remember to press it often in combat.

If you have any aspirations towards PvE, include a Paladin or Druid on the team.
Why those two? ... Because they're easy to tank with, and have a useful off-spec.
The Pally can heal your team in PvP, or be a full fledged tank for AV/IoC or a tank-flag runner.
The Druid could heal your team, but I'd actually run it as a Boomer and never heal with that toon (use the Shammies); Boomer gets you 8% spell power (Earth & Moon), Solar Beam, Mark of the Wild, etc...

Until you have close to full Honor gear... at least 3/4's, stick to the 40-man BG's.
AV rocks, and IoC (on its weekend) is as good.
On a non-IoC weekend, you'll likely not find a better BG than AV.
You can run Tol Barad as often as possible too.

Priority is:
a) The two-minute trinket.
b) Two pieces of Honor gear, for the 2-piece bonus.
--- If the guantlets extra thing is useful, make them one of the two.
--- The Helm should be the other.
c) Other honor pieces, that have the color sockets needed to activate your Meta Gem in the Helm.

You won't be able to buy weapons, until you've spent a minimum number of points.
Weapons are worth a lot, and you should save Honor so you have enough to immediately buy them at the same point where you've earnt a minimum of xxx honor that season.

Conquest is similar to Honor, with a proportional amount of improvement to the points spent.
So you can upgrade whatever honor piece you want.
Or if you don't have an Honor piece in a given slot, but have Conquest then that's a no brainer.
Conquest weapons require 7800 conquest points, in the current season... same deal as Honor, but much more important.

You get Conquest for wins in the BG Weekend battleground.
And once you have full Honor gear (or close), you can try Arena for Conquest points too.
You can also run your team in 2's or 3's, if that works better than 5's.
Or play each toon solo; I paid someone a hundred gold a win, to partner with my DK's when they were new and the season had already started (they were very undergeared).; that's an option too.

I don't use a rotation in pvp, I just use whatever I have available. I don't use a cast sequence macro, I have every spell on a keybind on my bars. I only play BGs

Generally I go for the flame shocks, lava burst + chain lightning, if that doesnt kill them, I just keep spamming chain lightning. If they have a healer, I'll set up a lava burst + CL + 9 stack fulmination.

If lvb is on cd, I just spam lightning bolt while backing away if needed. If 2 or more horde are near each other, I will spam CL. My god, being able to CL spam a few horde without retaliation is just insane, it feels good and the DROP!

Cruising around, I use frost shock and lightning bolt on anyone running away. Anyone that has 120k or less maximum HP gets 4x 9 stack fulmination (this will usually 1 sot them or very close)... regardless of their current health.

I do use unleash elements as 2nd combo finisher if shock is on cd or target is very close to death.

6 on my numpad drops my totem set, it is healing stream (glyphed) on every sham, searing totem, each earth totem, and 2xwindfury and 2x wrath of air. I have searing totem on a seperate keybind, grounding on a seperate keybind, as well as fire eles and earth eles (both on seperate). I didn't spec into lava surge or earthquake because I am lazy and don't change specs for pve-pvp transition, or glyphs, and I can't mouse broadcast very well with keyclone (haven't gone to ISboxer yet, refer to lazyness).

I find nothing wrong with dumping 4 flame shocks on a dispel happpy healer and switching to a dps target and unloading roughly 14 lightning bolts into his face.

If you are in an AV turtle, forget every other spell and spam CL+fulmination, can't say that enough lol.
