When is the nerf to this OP trait coming https: //bloodmallet. com/index.html#shaman_elemental?data_view=azerite_traits&type=trait_stacking&tier=3 this is the most OP trait ive seen wtf how do you guys balance things?
Why are you being a jerk?
IP is the only thing making elemental shaman fun/viable right now.
Because that is what people do now.
Everyone is so quick to blame blizz for knee jerk when majority of the community is so quick to demand nerfs.
Ele gets flame shock dispel protection. Everyone whines and cries until ele loses it and warlocks get it.
Ele got thunderstorm. Everyone whined and complained until it became garbage and hunters priests and druids got a better version.
Ele got move while casting LB. Everyone whined and complained until it was canceled and fire mage got it.
Last was lightning lasso
Now its azerite traits.
because its broken thats why, all broken traits get nerfed this one is way ahead of everything else, its bad design.
I post on my 110 shaman to show I am legit concerned even though my main has recently been replaced by a ele shaman.
It’s ok we understand
I mean he has a point, Blizzard has clearly stated that any trait being overwhelming more powerful that others would get nerfed and IP is one of those.
But on the other hand is the trait that makes Elementa Shaman strong in ST right now unlike for example Explosive Potential for Demonoly Warlocks that made them strong at everything so i think IP is not that bad.
If he was truly concerned about ele shams, he’d be asking for other traits to be made worthwhile. To give elemental shaman other possibilities.
He just wants ele nerfed.
1/3 specs are doing well! unacceptable! Nerf ele.
If this is the most op trait you’ve ever seen you clearly haven’t looked at demo locks.
Primal primer was the same for enhance at 8.1 release, made enhance fun and viable. Then a week in to BFD they nerfed it to the ground on top of other nerfs with 0 compensation
EP got nerfed into the ground untop of bugfixes which in total was a 20-30% nerf depending on RNG why should shamans have a trait thats almost as powerful? its only behind 700 points from Explosive Potential.
Please post on your main and tell us where the bad shaman touched you.

You are such a concerned WOW citizen expecting fair nerfs I am sure you can log onto your many 110 alts of the above classes and make similar posts?
the igneous potential nerf is actually needed tbh x3 ip and lava surge stacking is 72% to lava surge.dont get me wrong it shouldnt get the 33% nerf its getting in 8.1.5 maybe a 15%-20% but yea 72% to lava surge is a bit much,.
You realize only the damage stacks. The buff the lava surge % is only a flat buff. Meaning whether you have one IP or 3 your lava surge never gets above the 18% chance or whatever.
so then the damage to lava burst is getting nerfed then?
Nothing is getting nerfed, or needs a nerf.
isnt ip getting nerfed by 33% in 8.1.5?
As far as I am aware (did a quick search looking for any 8.1.5 notes as well), I do not see any IP changes coming in 8.1.5.
Edit: Right after I post WoWhead had a compilation of all 8.1.5 changes
OP is probably a demo main who’s just that upset about EP nerfs.
thats good but i see rolling storms for enhancement is nerfed in to the groud form 2 secs to 20 secs…rip enhancement.
