Re: Tier 5 PVE Class Tweaks
Most raiders Im with are MM, and they wreck &%!$ up. If you just mathematically apply the changes, they would still be at or near the top of the meters.

Re: Tier 5 PVE Class Tweaks
well, we aren't IN t6... and while your numbers show ele @ 1.7k, its closer 1.8-1.9k (topping out @ 2.2k in fights with adds) in full raid and buffs. while the likes of mages, locks, and boomkin are 2.2-2.3k (up to 2.5-2.6k with adds)KohiiKaiju wrote: ↑09 Nov 2017 04:25It seems to me that Shaman scale quite well. This might just be a gear issue that will get sorted as we move along. Elemental seems to scale very well with haste especially, compared to say a Warlock.Botmaster5 wrote: ↑07 Nov 2017 04:37Would like to see the numbers for lightning bolt or chain lightning bumped up a little to be inline with other casters.
Anyway...
Testing single target DPS at Heroic/Kara gear:
At T5 level:
At T6 level:
All of those were done with a Flask of Supreme Power and Curse of Elements but no other outside buffs.
These are not to point out that Elemental shaman are going to be topping charts like mad in T6, but just to point out that it will get better with gear - maybe more so than other classes.
its already bad enough that the only reason to bring an ele shaman to a raid is for the totem of wrath. consistently being at or near the bottom of the damage meters, even though you are going above and beyond with gear, consumes, and drums, makes it very disheartening.
ive been testing all permutations of shaman gear and have them stated and weighted on my public spreadsheet you can see here:

alot of time and energy has been put into this (since before TBC pre-patch, and refined throughout changes made to the primalwow client/game), and your 5 minute anecdotal and dismissive DPS tests show nothing other than ele shamans have the capability to dps, and is frankly insulting.
