So I just decided to dust off my Elemental Shaman and wanted to make a more Lightning themed build that tries to capitalize on Storm Elemental, but all the talents that support using an Elemental have far better synergy with Fire Elemental. And if I want to maximize uptime on Storm Elemental I have to spend a LOT of gcds not casting Lightning spells, which defeats the purpose of having the Storm Elemental out in the first place.
I think an adjustment to Stormbreaker’s Fiery Demise could resolve this issue by creating synergy between the Lightning spells and Storm Elemental. The goal would be to allow players to obtain a similar uptime with Storm Elemental as with Fire Elemental without having to sacrifice casts of Lightning spells for the sake of increased uptime on the Elemental.
To that end, I suggest the following:
Stormbreaker’s Elemental Demise - Flame Shock has a 50% increased critical strike chance and its damage over time critical strikes reduce the cooldown of Fire Elemental by 1 second.
Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning have a 10% chance to grant you the Stormkeeper effect and your Elemental Overloads reduce the cooldown of Storm Elemental by 1 second.
