Hello,
I am really love playing my Enhancement Shaman. Stormbringer is an absolute blast! I feel that just two changes would make a better quality of life for the spec/hero tree.
-
Conductive Energy. The Lightning Rod for this should be spreadable by Chain Lightning, keeping the application for single target with Lightning Bolt. This would help from tab targeting multiple mobs in large groups to spread the debuff while keeping our priority target still being damaged. A nerf from the 8% to 5% would justify this to keep damage in check, but with the Doomwinds nerf, the 8% could potentially still be needed.

Descending Skies should add Chain Lightning to the tooltip. And the buff should last longer than 30 seconds. After Ascendance is done, there is only 15 seconds left on the buff. If the pack dies too quickly and the group runs to a next one, we are forced to use Tempest on the initial pull and that almost guarantees a threat pull.
As far as the actual Shaman tree, a rework needs to happen altogether. Totems should all be BASELINE, with the exceptions of Totem of Wrath, Counterstrike Totem, and Static Field Totem. Yes, that means Grounding Totem gets put back in the toolkit. Shaman’s lore is about totems, all three specs should have a baseline totem list without them being talented or having to choose between them.
Thank you
