Voltaic Lava or whatever that spell is called can be removed, just have lava lash apply and spread flame shock uncapped. Remove lightning bolt and have chain lightning do lightning bolt damage if only hitting one target and then chain if there’s more. Crash lightning can be removed.

Definitely not bloated. I’d support them adding Ice Strike and Hailstorm Back in. Not every spec needs to be 2x buttons.

I dont think enhance is bloated at all, if anything it has the perfect amount of buttons imo. Voltaic is fine, allows us to get flame shocks up from ranged as we are running in.

I do wish they’d just make the first target of Chain Lightning take Lightning Bolt damage so that they could remove Lightning Bolt. Across all specs.

Been dabbling on shaman a bit lately and my only complaint is sundering.
I hate the sound it makes, I hate the animation and I even hate the icon. But I reallllly hate having to cast it to get to use prim storm. I cringe every time.

I think sundering is probably due for an animation update. I think it look kinda weird as well. Maybe they can increase the radius/range on it a little bit too to help with the animation looking normal, but I’d like to see them update the visual.
Wierd take but i also think primordial storm should be “spent” or “cast” on next spender, and again like above poster said, LB and Chain rolled into 1 spender. This’ll make tempest and ps less clunky
crash lightning is awesome and you can piss off

With all due respect, no to everything.
This isn’t bloated at all

“This spec is too bloated. Get rid of these spells that are core to the spec identity or make them situtionally aware”
Literally just use the single-button rotation assistant at that point.

I think sunder looks more like a pvp spell than a main stream one. That being said, the bloat feels fine. It’s not overly complex, and with macros it feels the same. (I have my lightning bolt and chain lightning on the same button and use shift to toggle between them). I do hate the new lightning bolt animation tho.
I dont agree with that at all. I dont really want enhance to be a 2-3 button spec lol. I like the fact its still fast paced and as totemic a bit complex. I like the fact we aren’t ret paladins or bm hunters/mm hunters with only a few buttons to press. I’ve tried playing other specs like those three i mentioned and i got insanely bored really quick. Reworking the entire spec to make tempest and PS less clunky is not worthwhile, especially since you dont really need to play ps as stormbringer, you ideally go left side instead (lightning strikes needs to be fixed though).
Enhance does not feel bloated. It has a pretty nice amount of buttons now. Nothing we have feels useless to press or useless to the spec imo. Everything we have is used often. I like having an ST spender and an aoe spender, don’t want them rolled into one.

I still think it’s weird that enh big spender is ele filler ability.
Different specs though it’s not really comparable. however I do get what you’re saying, maybe it would be cool to get a capstone that upgrades lightning bolt (annd chain lightning possibly) into a windy fire spender or something. Would say ele blast but ele also has that as a spender so.
Enhance isn’t “bloated” enough. Bring back Ice Strike and Elemental Blast. It’s not a problem if a few classes have a lot of buttons to press.

Now that’s some pure hatred if I ever seen any. I’m not really a fan of sundering either but you may have converted me into a hater.
I’m so angry all the time. It might be these felroids I’m taking.
I disagree with this too. We dont need ice strike at all, it just has no real place, it was bloat before and would be bloat now.
As for Ele blast, we don’t need 2 different single target spenders. However, they could maybe add in a talent that upgrades your Lightning Bolt into Ele blast in some way but that wouldn’t really work well with SB and would essentially be what Tempest is minus the stats eb gives. They could also just add in like a capstone or something that upgrades Lightning Bolt into a new spender that is unique to enhance and does a lot more ST dmg+maybe interacts with our weapon enhancements or something. Idk, but I dont think enhance needs any more buttons at all. It pretty much has the perfect amount, theres always something to press and its fast paced.
