Possible to play Ele Shaman on high MM+ lvl ONCE?

So last season i had to stop pushing MM+ (cut off) after reaching 3k+ Rio because no one wanted an Ele in his team (not meta at all…).

Now i saw the S3 tier sets and builds allowed by it and i though “awesome, with an appropriate wildfire build, this MM+ season will be great !”, soon later, on the PTR, before S3 is even live, Ele shaman got nerfed twice in a row.

Icyveins :" There is still a long way to go until the spec enters close to the “meta’ composition.
Elemental Shaman is still one of the squishiest DPS specs in the game, which needs to be addressed. Also, it is disappointing that this specialization is the only one that doesn’t bring any unique buffs to the party/raid. In addition to the most recent nerfs to their tier-set, the change was significant enough for them to vacate their placement and drop down to the B-tier rankings. The only way the specialization climbs higher than its current placement is further damage buffs.”

Everything is said.

  • Low dps
  • No raid buffs
  • squishy /bad sustain

Will Ele shaman shine one day ? Or will we get perma nerfed as soon as we are doing well ? (While Fire mage / Aug, and others, are Meta two patches in a row)

Yeah I’m agree with this. I tired of this balance… elem is a pure @@@@ atm in mm+, the dmg is too low, spender dammage is a joke…

If there was a time for ele to shine, would have been this expansion, elemental based. They did ele dirty , elemental blast hits like a wet noodle. My 400ilvl mage frost spear crits for 300k+ and my shaman 440 elemental blast crits for 250 max…this is just lol
