Ok, time for the second instalment.

Black Temple part 1
The trash for the first five bosses are fairly standard. DPS the assist target, keep your totems down, but otherwise there isn't really anything out of the ordinary. Make sure you use Poison totems leading up to Naj'entus, and an (one at a time) Earth Elemental on the elemental pack after is a good idea as well
  • Naj'entus
    Standard fight. DPS the boss, re-drop totems each shield, and if you can manage it, time a Healing Wave to go off after you get damaged by the shield pop.
  • Supremus
    Again, fairly standard. Keep cooldowns for Tank & Spank phases. While you can keep dpsing during the kite phase, watch your proximity, as well as avoiding volcanoes.
    Organising where you will be standing with your group before-hand is useful.
  • Shade of Akama
    Typically, you will fill a range DPS spot on one of the sides, burning down the waves that spawn. However, due to the fact that the Channellers and Sorcerers don't attack anyone, you would be more effective on them (and making liberal use of Chain Lightning). Save heroism/cooldowns for killing the Shade.
  • Teron Gorefiend
    Despite the general view that Teron is an all out DPS fight, elemental shaman will not see the sort of figures that other classes will see. This is mostly because we have no interrupt resistance (see: Arena set) and we have no extra tricks to improve our damage output.
    Fairly normal fight otherwise, equip a few SR items if you can, and save heroism for when one of your group gets Shadow of Death or the boss hits 60-70%
  • Gurtogg Bloodboil
    Doing no damage during the first tank phase is recommended, to give your tanks enough of a threat lead to last the fight. Tranquil Air is also a good idea if there is a Shadow Priest in your group (or anyone with agro issues). Heroism on phase 2, heal yourself if you have Fel Rage.
