World of Warcraft guides, opinions, discussions, and more!
A little about myself:
Hey, I'm Ridmark/Hex/Rid/Mark! I started playing WoW during the opening months of WotLK. Since then, I've experienced a lot of what this game has to offer; I have been everything from a hardcore casual to a Cutting Edge raider and everything in between. Hopefully my channel provides some helpful insight or food for thought for anyone who seeks it. I've mained Elemental Shaman for over 10 years, but still like to experiment on other classes as well.
I've started streaming at Twitch.tv/Ridmark so feel free to stop by and say hi some time.
I'm always looking to improve, so feel free to give me any feedback wherever you see fit!
Thanks for stopping by!

Can someone explain elemental equilibrium and when to use it? I see builds take it but don’t mention anything about actually using it or it’s priority
Where can we get your WA package? The one on your discord just links to the Luxthos pack without your edits.
I do get you!
Portals reset on dungeon completion not dungeon time
very good very nice i will try it out i wil llet you know ! thanks again awesome guide elpapitank
23:50 Is it really necesary to use Totem+ flame shock spread on opener? I mean, using ascendance already casts flame shock on nearby targets.
only good guide i found thx !
With smooth brain, at what target count do I switch to CL / EQ spam and forget LB, FS, Ice fury etc?
What weakaura and plater are you using?
very nice guide, thanks for your effort!
Love the videos keep them going lol, would love to see an ele update on this next patch with the buffs and do you think farseer will be viable after the patch today or still stormbringer? Again ty for the content!
Hey! Would you earthquake on 2 targets/ST with es/imt/pwawe?
Settle this for me once and for all. What is the best weapon enchant? Depths or radiant power?
What about doing the "chinese" build with ES instead, would that be a loss?
Perfectly viable. I would however consider swapping talent in eye of the storm over to elemental equilibrium. 10%dmg for 10 sec after every primordial wave.
Jet stream is bonkers for the first pack in MoTS.
So helpful man thank you :)
Wouldn't having 1 Vers/Mastery gem increase your DPS as it ties into the Prismatic gem's effect? I've never simmed it where it didn't.
yay!
Are we suppose to use instant lava burst in aoe to get that buff on next skill or we just spam both CL n earthquake and forget about lava burst totally
really thanks for this video. I was looking for something like this. BTW, do u have any video like for enhance?
Great video, I like how you actually explain the rotations for each build, I've seen a couple of guides now and people just say a bunch of words and expect everyone to know what they're talking about. It got a little confusing with the way you said some things during the rotation breakdown so maybe some kind of visual on top of the video, that displays the actual spell order would be helpful for the next one you do? Like at one point you said press primordial wave before ascendance and then said, activate primordial wave after ascendance and my smooth brain went into overload trying to figure out what you meant but quickly realised you meant lava burst after ascendance XD Regardless, it was super helpful how you broke all of that down, I was able to understand why we are supposed to do certain things now.
Single target just feels not great after the update. TY for the breakdown!
yoo hi there, Ele shaman newbie here, just 1 question for example in the chinesse build, it supossed to use LB after PW to get haste right? but that doesnt work in Chinese build or what im missing? im talking about the prio target demostration thanks for video and If you or someone else can answer me, I would be very grateful.
It works the same as the other builds. I wasn't sure what you were talking about at first and then I went back and watched the clip and for whatever reason the lava burst didn't go off and I didn't notice. Must have gotten gcd locked but that's a big oops. I say it correctly but, for some reason, missed seeing that in the clip. My bad :/
how do i get your weak auras?
Subscribe and liked the video! Thank you so much! I wanted to play Shaman, and I have been struggling so bad and this has been extremely helpful!
Hi Ridmark, thanks as always for your guide! Love it! Just 2 quick questions: 1 - isn’t better to alternate lava burst with lighting bolt to max benefit from masters of the elements buff? 2 - is there any difference proccing ice fury with flame shock rather than a nature + fire spell (like lightning bolt + lava burst)? Thank you very much
Surge of Power feels very odd to play. It synergizes less with Deeply Rooted Elements, it synergizes less with our tier set and playing it is very clunky with having to use Lightning Bolt in AoE if its only 5 targets or avoiding Lightning Bolt like hell because you have Tempest up and you’re trying to build up Maelstrom to proc Surge of Power. And heck, Aftershock even helps go into DRE procs with Maelstrom.
The only time its Worth casting LB over CL in AoE with Surge of Power buff is at 2 targets. Dosent matter if the buff goes to waste on 5 targets, you still press CL. I do agree though that SoP seems the worse choice no matter what sims say. I like my ele to be a bit RNG with aftershock and DRE.
Thank you for breaking this down, I appreciate it. I had been struggling trying to get down a build/rotation.
Tried every single one. Chinese build for me is the best.
Earthquake will auto apply lightning rod to a target that doesnt have it. So if you're just spamming earthquake you dont have to target switch as much.
Only for Primary target tho
For ST why not use Charged conduit over thunderstrike ward or eye of the storm?
You can. As I said there are a few 1 or 2 point talents that come out to perform about the same, but they don't have an effect on gameplay.
@ridmarkgaming true heard. Thank you
Hey, Thank you so much for the new video. Can you roughly estimate the dps difference between the different builds?
Not really, as it will depend on your specific gear, however you can sim all of these for your character and get a much more accurate picture. Though you can still make an argument to use any of them if you simply like the playstyle or are better at performing on one of them.
@@ridmarkgaming Guess I have to do that then. I really like the chinese thing, after seening Bond using it. It's fun, but the numbers are lower for me, than smooth brain. The Boss dps is higher tho. I think I'm just not playing very well. I'll try to sim it. Thank you for the advice.
Do you take earthquake on target or at location? as a shadow priest main looking to alt shaman - if I used shadow crash on target and they charge out and miss the rest of the pack that's all my damage gone - I guess it doesn't matter as much as shaman cause you'll get multiple casts of earthquake vs the 1 shadow crash every 30 secs
I always use the "at target location" as opposed to "at target enemy." I would argue location is better in all situations, but the difference is usually minimal so if you're more comfortable with "at enemy," it's not worth worrying over.
It makes sense now, Holy moly tyvm. Can't tell you how slow i feel after watching all the previous guides. Ty for this.
Glad you found it helpful!
What shoulder pads are those?
Mists of Pandaria challenge mode set.
@@ridmarkgaming Not available anymore?
Nope, but who knows if it will be at some point in the future.
couple questions about es/lmt/pwave build: if asc is up, i just send LMT and pwave then let asc get the flame shock count up to 6 before i launch the empowered lvb. is there a notable advantage to spreading 6 flame shocks prior to asc? second, i've been using flame shock/prim wave before LMT and it seems LMT has been consistent in hitting 3 new targets. this has been notably easier for me than hitting LMT first and having to click/tab through 2 new targets to shock/pwave. any reason for the preference in shock/pwave before LMT? thanks for the video. ain't a lot of ele mains making guides throughout the years so always look forward to when a post pops up from you.
In all honesty you dont have to lmt if you have ascendance since you get the 6 for free with ascendance, however, for the sake of keeping things simple and easily replicable for a guide, I included it for all situations, as it allows for some extra damage that wont typically pull off threat as the tank gathers. The order for flame shocks, lmt, and/or pwave do not matter for the sake of aoe. If you find it easier to use pwave before, then go for it and is probably better anyway. I usually do the reverse out of old habits but it wont make a huge difference either way.
@ got it, thanks for response. even though the lmt flame shocks are redundant if you have asc, I like to send it anyways just ‘cause I wanna keep it sync’d with pwave.
Thanks for the amazing guide. Question: if your LB is on cd, can you go IceFury directly into ES/lighting bolt? or you'd better wait and align it with a LB when it's off cooldown? Is it somehow better in terms of overall dps to use it before ES rather than LB?
If you have just used an Icefury, as long as you're using a nature and fire spell before the next Icefury, the order doesn't matter. You do want to try to use lava burst before your earth shock, but not at the expense of over capping your maelstrom.
@ridmarkgaming thank you, that Is what I suspected
Mastery procs are buged and consume storm frenzy stacks. Same with stormkeeper, instant cast LB and CL consume storm frenzy stacks. Sometimes you cast CL with 1 storm frenzy stack and if you immediately recast CL or Temest, it casts with the same speed of a frenzy stack even though you just consumed it. It significantly impacts cast smoothness especially in aoe, you cant predict when mastery will proc and fk up the casting speed of 1 CL...Doesnt matter so much in single but dps loss is dps loss. Literally a beta game, im getting tired of it.
Stop crying baby grow up
Been using the Chinese build and it definitely feels the most fun and engaging. Elemental blast looks sick coming out and I love me some chain lighting but it can get a little stale just spamming it constantly
It's what I've been using the most as well. Definitely the most engaging.
I refuse to play Stormbringer. Since the highest I'm going is +8s and heroic raiding. It doesn't matter. I won't be min maxing.
Ok
Stormbring is more fun too though haha and it’s not too hard
I have had decent results using farseer in raid, specially on queen. Not sure if it is the way my guild approaches the fight but I find the instant cast of spirits to run better for me. Tempest can just take to long to cast at times and if you need to move and recast it that sucks. Use it for most encounters though.
Thank you Ridmark!! Will make a few amendments in raid - hopefully some more dips.. I'm quite enjoying the play style since 11.0.5; after raging when they made Mastery the main stat, I've come to appreciate it overall - the ST build is pretty versatile and keeps up with the other classes.
Very useful ! I love your step by step approach ! Thanks a lot ! :::) <-----( it's a Nerubian )
In AOE I've noticed it feels good when ice fury is up with your pwave/lmt package to ice fury before you drop the totem for a tiny bit extra stat bump. It makes the AOE outside ascendance feel a bit better.
it is definitely worth for use on a prio target or a first option for movement, but I don't know the exact target count where it starts/stops being useful in multi-target situations. Something can feel good to use for sure, but seeing it in the data is much harder to find. Writing that conditional use of icefury in an APL is above my skill set, but I might ask those who are more knowledgeable on sims about this. I assume there's a target count where above it this isn't worth (and probably not worth at all with an elemental blast build unless specifically for added prio damage) but I don't know where that point is. I do appreciate this kind of comment though as it makes me want to figure out where it becomes beneficial and where it stops.
are you planning to make another one of those rotation guides like you did earlier in the expansion? those are really neato
Maybe I’m just getting old (mid 40s) but I have to put every content creator for WoW on 0.75 speed now. Everyone talks about million miles an hour which is hard to keep up with when you’re trying to learn.
will the build substantially change or can we keep talents and stuff?
How do they perform in PvP? Still viable?
Genuine question from a new player: This game feels incredibly overwhelming. Especially the sheer amount of abilities, spell animations, and class knowledge required across all disciplines to even remotely begin doing well. I mainly PvP, but PvP in this game has felt so disheartening, especially considering such a low % of the player base PvPs. What can I do to improve, or is it worth just playing another game that’s more beginner friendly?
Ele feels like shit now. DRE is complete RNG trash
