Warlords of Draenor (Pre-Expansion Thread)

Elemental fans should be pleased with this, not confirmed yet but sounds reasonable

• Fulmination When you have more than 1 Lightning Shield charge active While Lightning Shield is active, damage and multistrike damage from your Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning spells generate an additional Lightning Shield charge, up to a maximum of 15 charges, your Earth Shock spell will consume any surplus charges, instantly charges beyond 1 dealing their total damage to the enemy target. Shaman - Elemental Spec.
• Multistrike Attunement (New) You gain 5% more of the Multistrike stat from all sources. Shaman - Elemental Spec.
• Item - Shaman WoD PvP Elemental 2P Bonus (New) While Ascendance is active, you are immune to silence and interrupt effects.

In 5v5 environment we can start the fight with glyphed swg for silence immunity (after first cc wave) and get 15 ls charges, then nuke with with instant elemental blast+es, that should be all we need to get a proper oneshot off, we dont know numbers yet but that sounds like a massive burst potential, with additional multistrike and having the privilege of 270% crit damage, plus we can still top that by using elemental fusion for doubled earth shock damage or extra damage from liquid magma (old spew lava) / storm elemental totem

Then we still have ascendance with silence immunity to get another kill or use it in situations where we have to force them to retreat, even without flame shock I doubt double healer can catch up with 4 shamans spamming lava burst/lava beam and eventually have another 10-15 charges of fulmination thanks to that perk that allows lava burst to generate ls charges.

I'm a little worried though about 4 dps teams since one healer is going to have a hard time keeping 4 people up.

jk elemental healing.

// As for enhancement, they still look great thanks to improved maelstrom but having heals on demand seems to be stronger in wod where elemental clearly has an advantage over enhancement
