Rotation? No. It affects how the class is balanced.
Lightning Bolt and Lava Burst are weaker in Elemental than Restoration because of the Mastery RNG effect.
It should simply be removed.
It’s not the talents, it’s the lack of Mastery. Ele skills are weaker because then can Overload.
So, overloads no longer generate maelstrom?
COOL!
That’s one less RNG aspect.
Too bad Mastery still causes core skills to be weaker because of the RNG element.
Elemental Overload has RNG chances of making your attacks be almost twice as strong, that’s why they’re weaker than Resto’s.
Resto is stronger until you get that RNG fiesta ticket.
The core spells for damage are lightning bolt and lavaburst. Elemental get a ton more options (earth shock, stormkeeper, icefury, fire ele, etc), but those don’t really come into play until the 90 and 100 talent row.
In the early game, elemental doesn’t have access to their important abilities, and only must rely on the core spells for most of their damage.
You are complaining about a lot of things, mostly wrong, and its hard to keep up at times.
Like SoP.
Fire Ele.
Ele Damage.
Yes. overloads give additional maelstrom. Is that what you are complaining about? This gives you an occasional earth shock. That is barely any RNG at all. Are you complaining that the elemental rotation isn’t brain dead easy, and you can’t line up your entire rotation before the fight even starts?
I will admit I was wrong and it has a very small impact. I didn’t realize you were complaining about something so small, while being absolutely wrong about everything else.
You pretty much broke my post into several small parts so it lacks sense.
Maybe try reading it as I wrote it instead of trying to force your own logic to make it look wrong and lacking knowledge.
Let’s see.
This is the number one shaman in Warcraftlogs which you sent me.
10.91% of his DPS is RNG based from 38 Overloads counting both Lightning Bolt and Lava Burst. That generates about… 3 Earth Shocks which if my math isn’t wrong(And probably is) makes up another 2% DPS.
12.91% DPS is RNG product from Mastery.
3.74% from Fire Elemental (Why even have this thing? Elemental is not a pet class)
