Okay thanks for the advice regarding PW:S. I'll be very open to it now and lose the old rooted opinions

Thanks for the correction, I had no intention of getting praise for answering my own questions, just shows how lazy I was and actually proves how little I know.

My comment was genuine in the fact that had I not been criticized I would have never found the solution to my problem.

i dunno if this is just my server or what because i havent seen this rotation used on any forums.

i was wondering what is the optimal rotation for enhance shaman

one rotation:
FS-SS-LL-and if malestrom isnt up LB
basically u repeat this throwing in Chain Lightning when malestrom is up and LB wen SS and LL are on CD

rotation two:
the standard ES rotation we all know.

also i was wondering would this be a matter of glyphs or something

WorldofWarcraft.com -> Info -> Classes -> Shaman -> Talent Calculator

this is usually my spec wen raidin/quest but open to alterations

i was wondering if maybe the simulator could shed some light on whether the Lava Burst or Earth Shock rotation was best and what was the optimal spec for raid dps.

Also im curious if Static Shock is good or not.

That is great news. I had not been back on the PTR to retest this myself, but I shamelessly used your data to post a new bug on the PTR forum stating either a broken mechanic for AP from enchants or a tooltip verbiage issue.

Is Webbed/Sinister pulling ahead of Webbed/Webbed, or is double webbed deaths still the way to go?

i would like to share my Dk DW tanking build you guys this is 1 i came up with u get increased resistances and longer duration on IBF while not picking up icy talons / imp Icy talons to reduce ur change to be parry gibbed. ive seen alot of people try and make builds that i just didnt understand what they where doing.

if ur unsure on a AoE rotation try this.
place a death anbd decay before u pull.
Icy touch, Plague Strike, Pestiliance, Blood Boil, Howling blast,
if u lose AoE aggro pop Hungering Cold and hit Death Chill then smack ur middle target with Howling Blast

Unless I am mistaken, AP doesn't scale with anything other that white swings. All of the spells/abilities are based on raw STR.
I too have questioned taking AM over TS, but it has been proven (mathematically) on this thread that TS>AM, unless no-one else is providing that raid buff. That is the only way that would be viable. Otherwise, TS wins hands down.

And what does strength do? Gives you attack power. The key difference between the two is that strength is scaled up by raid buffs like kings and various talents making it the more desired stat in pretty much every scenario.

Here's a question from me about affliction:
If, say, Haunt and some other DOT fall off the exact same time, which should be recast first for highest DPS?

Sorry, I just didnt find it! I tried but everybody is talking about unholy tanking :/! Anyway I'll try it again.

Sorry again.

can u explain this muti bug with instant poison, or give me link were i can read this inf? And if u are right then Master Poisoner doesn't stack with elem 5% crit buff and warrior 5% crit buff? can give me link for this inf too plz?
