Lava Lash isn’t changing, so no.

[Nayasala-hyjal]

Can you explain what the purpose of this change is then?

They explain it in the patch notes you linked:

@Linxy

Stormstrike is now learned at level 10 (was a talent).

• Developers’ notes: The primary resource system, Maelstrom Weapon, was not very noticeable as a passive in the spell book. To address this, we’re making Stormstrike the introductory ability for those choosing the Enhancement specialization and replacing its spot on the talent tree with Maelstrom Weapon. Alongside this update, we’re allowing Stormstrike to be cast without an offhand weapon for the new player experience.

It’s so if new players hit level 10 they can go enhance even if they don’t have an offhand yet.

SS/WF build doesnt use LL though? So maybe someone could? Dont know or care really lol

I suppose it’ll depend on how reliable the updated Voltaic Blaze is for spreading Flame Shock to targets. SS builds will probably want to use the new PWave and Primordial Storm for AoE at least.

I wonder if it could be good for a low level PvP twink?

[Furious-frostmourne]

for pvp it will be viable for stormbringer, since we will probably run DRE/thorims and not pstorm

A lot of builds already use Lava Lash as lowest priority filler only above your unempowered shocks. And Voltaic Blaze is gives you more than 100% uptime on spread flame shocks. I don’t really understand what the point of the updated Voltaic is, it seems to just add another ability that can proc it which means even more unnecessary uptime.
