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)
