Rushing stream got already nerfed to 15% bonus heal, still heals two targets at once which makes it, in my opinion, still more useful than ancestral guidance

I'm currently testing enhancement on ptr and tried out oneshots with the 2h axe and gotta say holy shit

stormblast and auto hit together noncrit do more damage than a an avarage oneshot with 2 1hand weapons including stormlash totem , gotta get 2hand next week for sure

That is how most top enhance shaman burst (from watching jah and vanguards last season)
The damage is absolutely retarded. Just need a weapon swap macro for when you stormblast (can't really warrant 8 seconds of downtime for one hard hitting ability)

Also krusch you might want to fool around with elemental blast, IIRC it is being added to the 25% chance to crit from stormstrike.

Enhancement

• Stormstrike Instantly strike an enemy with both weapons, dealing 450% weapon damage and granting you an additional 25% chance to critically strike that enemy with your Lightning Bolt, Chain Lightning, Lightning Shield, and Earth Shock spells Earth Shock, and Elemental Blast for 15 sec. Requires Melee Weapon. Shaman - Enhancement Spec. 9.4% of Base Mana. Melee range. Instant. 8 sec cooldown.

ofc this would also be some nice burst, I have 26% crit without anything reforged in 522 pvp gear so you would have 50%+crit for elemental blast which could add some nice burst between cooldowns, will have to try it out once live

So with that kind of damage do you think youd be able to pull off more than one insta-gib at a time? SO like have 3 shamans ascendance and stormblast one target and have the other 2 focus target another guy and try and kill him.

in theory possible but you have always keep in mind that random defensive stuff weakens your burst, like demoralizing shout reducing physical damage by 10% but I'm not sure if that sort of debuff weakens stormblast, I'm going to try it out later today, but you got like natures guardin and other undispellable stuff like the priest passiv 30% damage reduce where you want to burst through

You could kill someone every 8 seconds, so you have two attempts.

But weapon swap has a 1 second GCD iirc so weapons swapping during ascendance for the entire thing might not be the best idea since you lose the ability to lava lash which hits very hard as well.
