| worldofwarcraft.tgn.tv — DPS rundown series, episode 22 of 22 Elemental Shaman! Follow-up video with dummy test: www.youtube.com We look at the spec and rotation for an Elemental Shaman, and analyze the testing results via Recount. While testing is normal done against raid dummies, this episode uses heroic tests in high end gear. Though this prevents an apples to apples comparison with other classes, it at least provides a good comparison with Enhancement. Elemental is easy to play, as it is based around just a couple of nukes, one debuff, and a handful of cooldowns. It is not very conducive to motion-based fights, as Spiritwalker's Grace does not last very long and has a 2 minute cooldown. The damage is quite above average, and the spec provides plenty of raid utility (other than the motion problem). The addon used to track cooldowns and debuffs is DoTimer.
