You will most likely want some talent points in to the resto tree instead of instant ghost wolf. Reduced damage taken and longer uptime on totems have bigger values in fights. The only use for lightning shield in dungeons and raids is for the fulmination procc. You won't be tanking, i.e. the orbs themselves won't deal damage.
The massively increased duration on fire ele is definitely the best dps spec by quite a lot. However in practice on heroic the ghost wolf talent is really good and sometimes sucks to not have. On some fights you can't really snapshot your elemental well enough either for the build to be as good as it is on patchwerk fights.
The ring enchant value, tailoring cloak spellpower value are both wrong. These are from WotLk. Flame Caps don't work any longer (Since phase 2 WOTLK lol)
@curtisdinman Yea. Was excited to see a more long form guide, disappointed to see it was full of basic information, wrong information, and like you said basically read off of WoWHead.
So you're saying I made a guide for every spec in one day? You do realise I made all these guides BEFORE wowhead released theirs? At least think about what you're typing. I've also NEVER done cata / wotlk classic guides before so I don't know how short / in depth people want the guides. If the feedback suggests people want reallllly in depth then that is what I shall do going forward! :D
@@JaviHeals Again respect the effort I know it takes alot. But I think our point is when someone clicks on a "complete guide" video they are expecting more than just watching someone read the spell book (we can do that ourselves). Nothing about openers, snapshotting, stat weights (yours are wrong), sim recs, macro recs, WA recs, actual rotation prio, fire elly spec etc. How to use the spells in context, not just what they do. But cheers man keep doing your thing.
@JaviHeals To sum it up, this guide was more of an introduction to the class / spec, than a complete guide. Both are fine of course, but the target audience for a "complete" guide is going to learn nothing from this video.
Beards are BiS! Tbh it's only minimal, races are more for min maxing but if you enjoy that, then yes Orc or troll... then I agree - Draenai after that etc
I don't agree with Troll as the race choice. Goblin is the way to go. They get a static 1% haste buff which if you math out the troll berserk ends up being way more in the long run. On top of that they also get a movement cooldown for combat that works really well getting out of bad stuff.

Thank you
This is why i hate guides.
Some say mastery over haste and vice versa...
from modern perspective its shocking how little this rotation has going for it
This whole spec is shocking. I'll see myself out.
Did you knew the haste cap for the Ele Shaman? Thx :))

Respect the effort, but he basically just read the spell book and the wowhead guide.

Can you please send me the link to the weak aura you are using, so I can duplicate the attacks like you have on your screen, much appreciated.
I have the same question
is there any way to make lava burst glow when proc'd?
Id grab a weakaura for this
What would be best heirlooms to level a elemental shaman with?
mail intel
always buy cloth int pieces so you can use it on all classes. increased armor is IRRELEVANT
Isn’t orc a good race since we use and snap shot the fire elemental a lot due to the pet racial and spell
Dmg racial ?
Orc is also good yeah
Orc > Troll > Draenai > Tauren > Dwarf
@@BongGoku yeah agree but the dwarfs beards compensate for the racial 😆

depends. if you want that burst for something troll is definitely the way to go plus using it with cds and bloodlust
Doesn’t orc racial go best with fire ele?
I’m pretty sure dwarf is best for alliance
So u use unleash élément??
No. He is wrong as Ele you never use it. Not worth the GCD
the point of using the unleash is to give bonus dmg to the lava burst
