Enhancement Shaman Maelstormspenders and Feral/ Elemental Spirits in PvP

In the beginning of TWW Season2 you decided to change the Feral Spirits and Elemental Spirits, which was a hard nerf for enhancement shaman in PvP. I understand that you wanted to increase the damage of the melee abilities, but at the same time you nerfed the damage buff of the Feral Spirits. The Stormbringer hero tree has damage issues since that nerf. Even if they spec into Elemental Spirits, they wont profit that much, because the lightning bolts and tempest dont scale with the Spirits anymore.

It is not really rewarding to stack up to 10 stacks and do the same dmg as other classes when they only need 3 to do the maximum damage of the ability (rets for example).

Please reconsider your changes to the Feral Spirits and Elemental Spirits by removing the nerf of the damage increase in PvP or make the 10 stacks of maelstorm more rewarding, like buffing the damage of eleblast, lightningbolt, etc.

I agree that Feral Spirit (nerfed to 5% physical damage per spirit wolf in PvP, from 15%) should be unnerfed to 15% again. The nerf to 5% forces Stormbringer shamans into Elemental Spirits (10% physical damage + 10% elemental damage per wolf in PvP).

Before the nerfs we had the choice between more physical damage (Feral Spirits + Legacy of the Frost Witch 2/2) or sacrificing physical damage for more elemental damage (Feral Spirits + Elemental Spirits + Legacy of the Frost Witch 1/2).

More choice is always better.

Our spenders are a strong part of our rotation and I don’t see a reason to specifically buff them outside of normal tuning. And Maelstrom stacks are generating very quickly so I don’t see an issure there either.

one pointless topic per week, one per week :laughing:

well if we could get the full strength of our feral spirit and elemental spirit, it would help a lot already. i didnt say the spenders are weak, but in my opinion they could be a little bit stronger if the melee abilties dont hit that hard with the nerfed spirits.
