They did it again Petko, they destroyed and gutted our spec! Are we even viable for anything over LFR at this point? Should we all swap to warlock, what do ya think?
ELE shaman from S to C tier xD
yeah october 30th changes have dropped and elemental has got ridiculous nerfs including stormbringer basical been just an 1 instant lightning cast instead of 2 alongside everything cut in half near enough so we likely mid tier now overtop nerfs
Now that we do not play thunderstrike ward, is there any reason to not craft a staff if its a big ilvl upgrade for me?
As an ele main at 2.9k IO we were overturned by a large margin once 11.0.5 dropped. People were pulling 25 mil on mob pulls lmao cmon guys.
Phantom Pain doesnt even work anymore i sat at the dummy and did 200m dmg lol Doesnt show on details at all.
I dont feel nerfed lmao..
Feral is so broken in pvp. It's disgusting it got buffed in pvp and pve
still doing high dmg
NICE, i wus scared of much bigger nerfs tbh
Petko, did u notice Fusion of Elementals does not work?
Its been around 2 months they have announced these "changes".
Ascendance does not work like the tooltip says. But they sure has to rush that nerf didnt they?
Rotation has become convoluted and you can just button mash at times and do whatever while either gaining or losing dps especially on single target, aoe doesnt seem to have changed much.
Secondary stats now seem to be changing in order with soft caps.
Suddently we are dependent on a single cooldown for insane damage and after that it seems like before and perhaps worse since less perma haste now (you could manage cooldowns before and have constant elementals providing haste) now makes some 3-2 mob pulls extremely wokny and now it seems icefury is important but its a random proc which some times proc much sometimes you cant find it.
Too often on single target rotation i get double stormkeeper essentialy wasting two lightning bolts.
And they took away our excellent utility.
Even you guys that tested the ptr dont have solid rotations and everything seems to work, or not?
Spamming some more lighting bolts before was slightly repeating but once you got your haste going above 25% it became fluid and you were ramping up maelstorm fast enough that spamming it too much was not possible and learing to keep procs for moving became more and more relevant.
I hope it gets better over the next days cause now im not feeling it.
Edit: All these while needing even more buttons to press, with ascendance and potentialy icefury/primordial wave which you can be specced in both now. Apparently my previous 25 keybindings were not enough.
10% lmao this is a joke
Is ok blizz is stupid i quitted so is great! Iam sure alot of ppl are annoyed with blizz!i would like to see how many ppl are actually doining content cos i was in the aniversary event and it was almost empty amd i see even dorngal having reduced amount of players
Yup, nerf em more next week
Good, elemental was literally broken.
I dont understand this shit company how rise ot nerf classes,what do they do on beta?drinking coffe ?
Elemental shamans are doing 6x other classes rn in aoe. This game is broken af
This nerf feels pretty significant on 5 targets, just testing on the dummies.
my god you are just the hottest petko I have seen! I'd happily make you 3 meals a day that would be specially made to eat and game at the same time! i'd massage your body and listen to you discuss wow info before we do a raid together.
Ascendance is broken at the moment for elemental shamans. It does not spread flame shock to 6 ppl so you’re only hitting one target not multiple. Unless they fixed it last night.
dont give them ideas 😢😢
I really hope that clip isn't going to get us dumpstered
DK Frost : U call this a nerf?
Ran 4 mythics last night before bed….. every party had 2 ele shammys. They were going fuking nutz to the point i didnt even teally have to pump
Meanwhile Acid rain still is not working on Dawnbreaker ships
whyd you have to have 25 mil + pulls WHYYYYYYYYYYY
Feral good I believe folks just don’t play it right I know guy that’s always blasting
Man you people are pathetic complaining about Elemental. LOOK AT LOGS. Not what you see you in your 1/8 “mythic” guild or your 2200 IO run.
Elemental has traditionally always been mid to trash. Now that Elemental is performing top 10 you clowns want to complain.
Completely normal to pull 25 million dps on a 10 mob pack 👀
I dont think thats the only nerf happening to ele, it's just prob a quick hotfix for now and then next reset they most likely will balance it a bit more
Thought I was seeing a PvP breakdown first and was like "feral got MUCH needed buffs?!"
Well it’s not like ele shamans are getting 500 cr above their skill lvl by one shoting everyone with 100 000 lava burts hitting for 500k each in less than 2 min. The dps of ele in arenas is just 3 times other dps.
What do you mean >💀 LMAO
its kinda funny how people are upset about this buff into small nerf and it not being a bigger nerf you guys understand ur average ele player wont do the numbers ur seeing ur panicing cause players who are prob higher then ur average player are pumping well no shit its no diff then a fully gear fury war still dose a fuck load of dmg even after the nerf cause he fully geard and knows the class. now i will say it dose need to be tuned more ele i do agree with that but it dose not need to be gutted and thats what blizz will prob do.
M+ season is already over if ele doesnt get another massive nerf soon
Honestly happy they hit lighting rod and not chain lightening and earthquake. Hopefully the next nerf is removing/ reworking echos
The fact that the shaman theorycrafters had the dignity to lie and say the buffs were minor when in reality they were in the range of 50% overall is silly. If they openly admitted the buffs were way too much, perhaps these could have been tuned down a bit and Ele kept in a healthy state. But with this kinda 'goon' mindset of the shaman playerbase, it's no surprise that everyone hopes they get nerfed back to dumpster again.
Honestly? Good. I did hc BRD with an ele shaman and he was top dps by a significant margin on every boss and it was unnecessarily irritating listening to him wank himself off over his logs
10% lightning rod….they really think this will bring their 20 mil damage back down to everyone everyone else's damage?
No fking way a spec that does 4.7 mln dps on a raid pull gets nerfed?! Didn't see that coming at all! So shocked 😮
We also need a rating rollback for everyone who abused elemental shaman yesterday to push
