In other words, they will likely forget to revert the nerfs on PTR and they will go Live even with bug reports.
Like others have mentioned, the removed changes made it into the PTR build, I hope they don’t remain active when it launches.
So can you fix this class please or at least revert the changes made. This is one of the bigger mistakes ive seen in the history of wow
So like ele is terrible and clearly needs more tuning. Can you please not leave the class dead?
So when are the tuning updates happening? Clearly a company like blizzard will not leave a class broken right? Right guys?
What’s wrong with it? It’s in a good spot
ST is abysmal so no its not in a good spot. it was in a good spot before this god awful change
At least in the statistics on WoW logs we are now boomkin levels of ST
Like, I will trade some more AoE for ST if I have to.
Do you not play test Enhanced? Miles ahead yet no tuning?
So have you playtested AFTER the asc bug was fixed and nerfs implemented? Things are bad. Worse than before the rework. Are we going to get the same immediate attention to bring us back in line to something more appropriate, or are we back on the ignore list?
Coming back in to say nerfing anything before you fixed the Ascendance bug was a mistake, but the nerfs to Stormbringer were too much. Farseer doesn’t do enough ST to compensate for the ST nerf from fixing the asc bug, and stormbringer gameplay got nerfed pretty hard.
Ele got obliterated by these nerfs hard and fast while it had a bug that affected its performance allowing it to heavily overperform, if you are going to nerf things so hard I would ask that tuning remains frequent so if buffs need to be made to correct overnerfs they can be done soon after.
Feedback/Suggestions:
-Please give Arc Discharge 2 charges again, going down to 1 was a big nerf to gameplay. Feels worse to play.
-Please look into Eles single target in PvE. The Asc nerf hit it by 9% and nothing made up for it, the Lightning bolt buff+farseer buff was an attempt but fell too short. Needs another look.
Please take another look into Elemental. These nerfs were way too heavy handed… If you can gut us in a week, you can at least return some of the things you’ve taken away…
I came here just to thank you, Blizzard, for completely gutting Ele not even a few days after I leveled my Shaman to 70. What’s the point of asking for feedback if you don’t take from it? Literally 10 people said NOT to fix the ascendance bug without some ST buffs. I’m doing at least 2-300k less than I was and it’s ridiculous. I’m convinced you guys have an all unmedicated ADHD dev team that impulsively buffs/nerfs over and over then goes OOPSIES a month or two later. I’m sick of constantly having to bounce between classes due to balancing issues and change specs and rotations because of the constant up/downs.
I play ele shaman at a high level and you are wrong sir. Play better
Not to just be negative here, I can help you if you have any questions it would be my pleasure.
Lava burst feels like it needs ~10%. ST in M+ keys like Orator Krix’vizk just trailing 20% from previous performance prior to the patch with worse gear.
Also, that fix for Ascendance still has parts that are broken. It says “instantly cast flame shock and lava burst at nearby targets” and i’m definitely missing out on the distribution of flame shocks on targets in tons of situations. Target not in combat, in-combat, engaged, not engaged, pve, pvp. What is it doing, conferring with the threat tables to figure out what it should or should shoot at?
It’s supposed to shoot at everyone.
What do you mean everyone?
EVERYONE!
(being six targets )
I would be open to advice. I feel absolutely terrible in raid now. I have no problems at all in M+, that still feels pretty good and fun, but raid feels worse than before the rework. I could be doing something wrong.
From what I’ve seen, lots of Ele’s are feeling cheated and angry, but if you’re finding success, please share!
Carmine0386 on discord send me a DM I’ll look at your build/logs and I am confident you will be slamming! Hmu!
I smell BS…
Get your nose checked brotha my discord is on the post above you can message me too if you like
Post on your Shaman, provide YOUR logs. World of Logs says you’re wrong, Ele ST sucks…
You say everyone, including all the Shaman actually logging fights, are wrong.
Prove it.
