Feedback elementalist (enhance):

  1. Ice strike is button bloat and should be removed. It is just annoying to press, doesn’t add any value to the rotation, isn’t exciting and just is a mess in a gcd bloat elementalist hast. The dmg modifier could just easily be baked into Hailstorm itself

  2. Lashing flames tab target is not fun and should just be removed. If you still want to keep it as talent, then make lava lash apply lashing flame to all flame shock targets as well. tabing around with very low melee range is very clunky and adds zero fun to the spec

  3. Primodial Wave is super annoying to use because it needs too much setup. Additionally the talent that gives 10 msw when using pmw is always making you overcap msw, which is just bad design.

  4. Target cap is terrible and makes enhance to less dmg than a tank DH, which is just stupid.

Speaking of msw design in general:
In shadowlands you went back to the 5 msw spender design and added a talent to be able to store 10 msw to avoid overcapping and wasting resources which always feels bad. In DF then you went and added a talent that let you spend 10 msw and you are back to the same design as before, just doubling the resouce that you need now. Could have just stayed at 5 msw and cap at 5 msw and it would be no different?
Now 5 msw spender + 10 msw cap was much more smooth and also didn’t require you to waste a talent point.

Feedback storm (enhance):

  1. DRE is the elefant in the room for storm. The super rng proc is really bad.
    Either change it to the way pulsar or even now tempest works or remove it. Now you could even easily combine it with tempest itself. If tempest procs, DRE procs. easy.

  2. Stormbringers interaction with MSW is currently terrible. I don’t know if intended or bugged but here are a few:
    a) instant CL after using tempest are using all your MSW up. The instant CL should have a 10 msw value and not using any msw that you currently have

b) Ascendance is using the instant CL procs as well even though thorims is firing its own CLs

  1. there seem to be generally a priority issue with tempest and DRE. tempest is similar rng as DRE and often you sit on a tempest proc with no msw available and you may have another wasted tempest proc.
    Additionally it would be better if ascendance also would fire tempest if you used chain lightning before ascendance procced. At the moment it only fires tempest if you used lightning bolt before ascendancem which makes using tempest arkward during ascendance window.

  2. the node in stormbringer hero talent that lets you choose btw msw after tempest vs 3 CL if hit 2 targets is quite bad.
    In M+ you always want to use the CL talent, which means that we lost out on ST dmg. It doesn’t seem a lot but still in 95% of the cases the ST talent would be dead on arrival.

  3. Doomwinds is just terrible in its current version. Please revert it to legion.
    Massive dmg, of gcd on 1min cd. It felt great as a burst cd. Current doomwinds feels like nothing happens at all. 10% dmg buff to WF feel like a joke considering WF doesn’t even do dmg in the first place. If i recall correctly, legions doomwind had a whooping 100% dmg buff to WF.
    Generally it is weak and the worst is that it is on the GCD which makes it incredible unfun to use. To top it off, if you have bad rng stormstrike procs during this window it might as well do 0 dmg at all.

I don’t understand this sentiment.

From ele point of view

Primordial Wave is very “shamany” and especially since they changed the graphic to fit the class.

It was the only covenant spell who had some interaction besides press and forget. It has a mechanic on its own and a fun one at it. It is fun to throw a wave of Lava Bursts. Imho the spell would feel much better if we had an easier way to spread Flame Shock.

I’m inclined to agree, for me the major factor against it is that it reminds me Shadowlands existed, and that the spell icon has nothing to do with the spell anymore.

  • The first issue if this spell lies actually with Flame Shock spreading being cumbersome, since you need another talent from a choice node to apply multiple debuffs or tab target on CD.

Elemental Shaman should have their Lava Burst spread Flame Shock to a nearby enemy, so we don’t need Liquid Magma Totem to setup Primordial Wave. Enhancement already have easy job with Lava Lash spreading, and Restoration already keeps multiple Riptides up.

  • Second issue is that for a gate 3 talented ability with a 45 sec CD (30 for Resto when talented), the initial damage/healing is VERY weak, which I find preposterous:

    • For Elemental, it deals half the damage of a Lightning Bolt.
    • For Restoration, it’s less than 30% of Riptide’s initial healing (both apply Riptide HoT), or 14% of Healing Wave.

    I understand it enables and enhances the following spells, but in itself it should offer instant value.

  • Third issue is that the spell requires 4 points to reach it’s full potential. I really dislike the 2-point talents that stand between Primordial Wave and it’s capstone effect.

  • There’s a fourth issue, but it’s for Enhancement only: While Elemental has a choice node for PW capstone that benefits either ST or AoE, Enhancement doesn’t get a ST oriented capstone.

Edit: Forgot to mention that PW was not the sole SL ability that wasn’t fire and forget. Vesper Totem existed and was probably more interactive, rewarding using off-role spells. Being an actual totem, I’ve no idea how it did not make it’s way to Shaman DF talent tree.

How about a new official interface to show maelstrom points like paladin has, and a more agile playing style, with shorter CDs?

Greetings Shamans!

Earlier today, we unfortunately deployed a small part of our Shaman update to the Beta. This may have put the class into a bad state for testing, but that will only be the case for the next day or so. We have significant updates to the Shaman talent trees coming in tomorrow’s new Beta build.

First, we’d like to outline our philosophy and goals for these changes. We’ll start by addressing the new Shaman raid buff: Skyfury, and then go over each of the tree updates individually.

Skyfury

Throughout Dragonflight and The War Within’s development, the topic of raid buffs has been actively discussed and we’ve come to the decision to add a new raid buff to the Shaman class. Our goal with this buff is for it to fully replace the Windfury Totem buff previously brought by Enhancement Shamans and grant Elemental and Restoration access to a raid buff to encourage their value in raids.

Skyfury incorporates the previous effect Windfury Totem had of activating additional auto-attack swings with a small Mastery buff. Players may also note that this is lifting the party-wide restriction previously in place on Windfury Totem’s effect and turning it into a guaranteed raid-wide effect.

Class Tree

For the Shaman class tree, we’ve reduced the node count of defense and throughput nodes to allow most of the decision making in this tree to focus on picking up different pieces of utility. There will also be some new toys to help with group utility and personal survivability.

Pathing has been improved in a variety of ways and the previously potentially restrictive locations of Gust of Wind / Spirit Walk and Earth Shield have been changed to be easier to pick up. We feel this frees up points for more compelling decisions elsewhere without having to compromise movement or defensiveness to such a large degree.

Elemental

Elemental’s updates focused on scaling their proc rates to be more consistent between AoE and single target situations, allowing for things such as Lava Burst to have more of an impact on their rotation and improving their talent tree layout to allow for more diverse builds and variety.

We want to empower Elemental Shamans to be able to specialize as lightning focused, lava focused, or weaving between all the elements and have distinct builds within each of these options to allow for impactful choices to determine damage profiles.

Restoration

Our Restoration Shaman updates condensed the availability of damage focused nodes in the specialization tree to free up more points to decide on healing profiles and moving core nodes such as Ascendance and Tidebringer into more available locations. We want Restoration Shamans to feel they have multiple compelling options to reach the heavily desirable nodes on their tree.

We’ve also focused on increasing the effectiveness of a few core Restoration Shaman spells we feel have fallen behind. The two most notable spells here are Healing Surge and Spirit Link Totem. In Healing Surge’s case players will notice more bonuses to this spell to allow players who are looking to utilize this spell more effectively and for Spirit Link, we are returning the Spouting Spirits azerite trait with a twist of splash healing to make it strong in any group content. Healing Rain is also seeing new bonuses focused on increasing its effectiveness.

Enhancement

For Enhancement, we’ve generally been pleased with the state and talent diversity of their specialization tree, so we’re approaching it with a lighter touch. We focused on baselining a few of their core spells and utility within their specialization tree to allow for more optionality in both the Core and Spec trees.

how in any world would you be happy with enhance? like seriously?

enhance plays terrible. it is a tab target gcd fiesta that requires so much concentration to play well while other press 2 buttons and do 50% more dps.

No fixing of DRE tempest interactions, no fixing of instant CL eating msw.
if there are no changes to enhance whatsoever, i hope stormbringers dmg will be higher than totemic so that I dont have to play tap target whack a mole all day. Oh wait, lightning rod exists now in the lightning build lol

Enhancement feedback:

  • a large portion of enhancements issues is the high APM and GCD bloat, could we have lightning bolt AUTOMAITACLLY proc at 10 stacks of maelstrom to reduce GCD bloat in the rotation please
    this would smooth out the rotation quite a lot , maybe we could have a choice node to change it to chain lightning for aoe builds

  • alternatively i think Totems could be off the GCD for enhancement only to smooth the rotation out ( again this could be a passive skill or choice node in the tree )

  • lava lash seems like a MUST pick in every interaction of the spec but its a choice node that doesnt need to be picked in the talent tree, maybe this could be made baseline ?

Enhancement is far from behind good. If you and your team are “feeling good” about how the class tree is right now, it’s fine, but that doesn’t change the fact that this spec needs help.

  • Doom Winds and Forceful winds should change places - and Forceful winds should also apply the following effect: Wind Fury successful hits should lower the cooldown of Doom Winds by 1sec.

There is no way that this class only works with Maelstrom Weapon stacks, and yet, this is a class mechanic that we need to spent 4 talents to making it good. It’s a complete joke at this point.

  • improved maelstrom weapon, raging Maelstrom and Overflowing Maelstrom, should be merged into one single talent.

Just doing this, will give us a possibility to get 2 to 3 extra talents ( depending on the cost of the maelstrom talent ), to spread across the class tree.

Another solution, is to merge Legacy of the Frost Which with one of the previous Maelstrom Talents. That would also make sense, since out class tree is not updated like hunter and DK did, and our talent system sucks too much of our build diversity possibilities.

How is it that you are fine and happy how enhance is played mr devs? Are you all piano players and can watch the screen and react to mechanics while having 8 button randomly reset and light up as core of your rotation? This just proves none of devs ever played enhance.

How is it doom winds is on GCD with such a low duration + it buff only selected abillities and not flat out dmg increase and extra mechanic like the rest of the specs in game? By this point just remove it!
How come we need to spill all our talent points into lava lash OR stormstrike to make it even do any dmg and be effective (kinda) to press? All tree leans heavily into 1 spell in order to not be a wet noodle.
Why we still dont have healing reduction effect like the rest of melle specs?.
How is it we still dont have any stun on demand abillity? Why we have totem that needs 2 secons to stun a target for 3 secons for people to run away from while warrior can just click stormbolt or paladin a HoJ or monk a aoe stun or dk the simple stun even survival hunter has a simple stun on demand and every spec in game.
Enhance is pure Bloat of piano elementalist spec with flashing disco rng gameplay more rng then roll the bones rogue in legion and you say you are happy how it plays? I am done with enhance there is no reason to play a spec that the devs just laught at your face , no reason to put x2 the performence and use your 3rd eye to see the screen react and do mechanics and 2 eyes on rng entire dps kit resets to do same Dps as a 4 button classes.

Hi, there,

From what I saw on the beta I found 3 issues

Ancestral guidance behind spirit walker’s is a bit unfair for enhancement

I don’t know if in pvp rsham have a lot of mana issues but in what world water shield has 9 stack and mana gain on refresh is useful in pve? If you take mele in pve, it’s because the tank isn’t doing its job properly and it usually ends in a oneshot.

A lot of the changes revolve around healing surge, which makes healing wave almost useless, but the placement in the talent tree forces us to take it to access siprit link totem. Making it mandatory for access to primordial wave is okay, but not for SLT.

Love these elemental changes! So happy to see earthen rage back!

This is not a class rework.
All the shamans reject this work, too many flaws. We want more effort in our class.
We have to spent too many talents in single abilities like stromstrike and maelstrom.

1 - We need more talents to be baseline skills learned from lvup. We are a class that learn baseline skills and specs mechanics with talents, other classes have this with LV up system.

2 - talent tree for Enhancement must have more merged talents, we have to waste 6 talents points to be wasted in just Maelstrom to make the baseline mechanic good. Merge this talents pls!

3 - doom Winds needs a cooldown reduction mechanism with wind Fury procs

4 - Allow the combination of dual wind Fury weapon.

5 - Stormblast , Stormflurry, elemental assault, this 3 talents need some merge between them.

6 - focused insight and Stormflurry, needs to switch place.
( Focused insight should even be an enhancement talent in the first place, change it to shaman baseline Tree )

7 - Primordial Wave and ascended should switch place. Along with their respective following talents.

Suggestions:

  • 2 handed weapon + 2 handed procs system adjustments and attack speed

  • give dual wind Fury combination possibility

  • Crash Lighting must be baseline skill learned thru LV up

  • New Ascendance skin update

  • PvP skill Burrow changed to Shaman Baseline defensive Skill

  • Deeply Rooted Elements Talent - should be changed from 7% on each Storm Strike to 4% for each maelstrom consumed with a CD on it’s effect. Can be extended by an extra “x” sec for each maelstrom consumed while Transformed.

  • Hailstorm - Change AoE target limit from 5 maximum targets to 5targets + 1 extra target for each Maelstrom consumed

  • Ice Strike - change from skill on use to passive.
    Ice Strike passive - if 5 or more Maelstrom Stacks are consumed on a DMG ability, your next Storm Strike / Lava Lash will apply Ice Strike on your target “Charging your 2hweapon/main weapon with ice, dealing moderate Frost damage based on the Maelstrom consumed. The damage of your next Frost Shock skill is increased by 15% for each Maelstrom Consumed”

  • Elemental Weapons Talent effect change to - Your Flame Tongue and Wind Fury imbue effects on 1handed weapons effect are Double and increase your Frost Fire and Nature damage by 5%.

    • Your Flame Tongue imbue weapon damage effect on 2handed weapons is double.
    • Your Wind Fury weapon imbue effect on 2handed weapon has 40% chance to occur .

Stormbringer feedback:

I hate the fact that Lightning Bolt changes into Tempest. It absolutely kills that talent that you get Stormkeeper proc every 50 sec.

The talent would give you extra damage while moving but now you are punished when you proc Tempest as you have to stop - cast tempest and then use proc. You have to do it within the buff time or your proc is wasted. It would be the same story if it replaced Chain Lightning. Unless Tempest can be used with Stormkeeper or it’s a separate spell that only activates after spending 400 maelstrom the game punishes you for procing it.

Same thing about Enha. You cannot spend Maelstrom for Lightning Bolt unless you stand and hard cast Tempest. Tempest sometimes is not a reward but a punishment. I’d prefer it to be a separate button instead of being punished to stand in one place and hardcast.

Now the best part. Tempest deals less damage than Lightning Bolt. Imo the way to go will be to put /cancelaura Tempest macro on basic rotation not to get the buff…

I understand that you forgot about DK…

I would like to see a way to spread Flame Shock on more regular and ideally passive basis.

Chain lightning should replace lightning bolt (balance numbers etc), its button bloat for the sake of button bloat and removal of lightning bolt would make space for something more interesting, or even nothing at all!

Water shield now has charges? Why? Earth shield is annoying enough with constant random dropping when entering instances, constant rebuffing of shields and weapon imbues is annoying already.

That Enhancer changes are crazy i hope you will change more that is just stupid.

And thank you from grab Windfury totem away now we dont need enhancer in raids anymore gj yeah very good job

not sure if you read any of the feedbacks in the US or EU Forum.
