This spec is awful. You have 0 points in Spell Impact or Arcane Empowerment. May want to rethink it.

i am fury warr ! and i want to emprove my dps! so plz tell me what to do ! this is my armory The World of Warcraft Armory - Sholim @ Sylvanas - Profile ! ty

guys, im trying to find the motherload of shaman info on this sight and cant find it for the life of me, i need to know the basics, what stats to stack etc. would appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction because apparently im blind >_< been looking on and off for 2 days now T_T

I was wondering, another shaman had told me I was gemming all wrong. I was following this guide, thought I was doing fairly well in most fights. I use my MT totem at about 65%-75% keep WS up and drink my one mana potion. But he told me I don't need to be gemming haste until I have x2 [Solace of the Fallen] or atleast 1. I currently have [Ephemeral Snowflake] and am about to buy [Purified Lunar Dust]. With my WS up I have 500 mp5 while not casting. Only reason I question it was because he is in the top guild on the server. Doesn't make em the best shaman I know, but still pushed me into thought.

I wanna be the best resto shaman possible. I do notice some fights I tend to drop a little low on mana. Such as Lady D. But its mostly due to the other healer(s) not pulling his weight. I just wanted to get your guys input. Should I really not push for haste without that trinket?

The World of Warcraft Armory - Zadrix @ Malygos - Profile is my armory if you guys wanna punch me in the face. :P Thanks for your time. You guys rock and have been coming here for as long as I have known of this place. :P

I'm new to posting long time troll i may have missed this somewhere but it seems the 4pct10 proc'd rejuv is a little bit weaker compared to a normal one.

Any thoughts that i missed?

/stopcasting
/cast [nochanneling] Arcane Blast

that macro allows you to clip your AM and get the benefit of 2pcT10 on your first arcane blast

i tried variations of

/stopcasting [channeling:Arcane Missiles]
/cast [nochanneling] Arcane Blast

but still doesn't work the way i want it to, basically i just want the macro to clip Arcane Missiles but not Arcane bLast, hopefully that makes much more sense.

Important Question:
On fights like Saurfang and festergut I do really fine. But on fights like Lady Deathwhisper and dreamwalker there is a lot of adds therefore a lot of jumping around from target to target and my dps seems to fall off especially when my video card fried and i am using a 40 buck card with like 14 fps in 25 mans(waiting on my RMA: They telling me they trying to get me the right overclock settings but 3/4 cards keep on failing on them or something like that. I run at 1920x1200). With haste on fights like saurfang and fester haste is great. I rely on shockandawe for my spell priorities maybe a bit too much but i already got that intuition of whats going to be next but with haste its really unreliable on getting a spam macro for adds heavy fights. I was wondering if you could share a spam macro with me for adds only situations. I have one but it burns my mana fast and with me just getting the 2 piece t10 bonus of shamanistic rage which gives you 12% more damage for 15 seconds, I really dont want to go oom and look the fool especially when I am shopping for a home. And since I just got my t10 Chest piece this morning and therefore have the 2 piece bonus now can u tell me if its safe to use right off the bat or can u recommend me a threshold to set it on for shockandawe. What I am referring to is say 50% mana left then use it for example. If you can please give me a threshold setting for a 10 man and 25 man icc where in the 10 man u might not have a shadow priest. There have been times when i use my spam melee button that i go oom so i just went back to relying on the priority frame from shockandawe. So yea my question can you as a enhance shaman recommend a version of a TBC hunter miracle 3:2 macro for adds heavy fights like Deathwhisper and dream-walker.

Another question:
Some random Enhance shaman told me i should use MW5_CL instead of MW5_LB cause it has a higher chance to crit. Is this good advice cause I am skeptical about his advice cause he also told me he leaves magma totem all throughout the saurfang fight(I switch to searing totem and earth-binding totem a few seconds when i get adds soon on DBM. When the dogs are just about out of magma totem range I switch back to magma totem and and strength of earth totem. Both sets are binded to "call of ancestors or spirits) Ive noticed through trial and error it runs smoother for range to pick them up and kite and i don't take dog damage and give saurfang any hp regeneration. Also I had a bad experience with MW5_CL on one of the princes I used it and a Dark Nuclei ganked me good thing 3/4 of the raid was dead so I didn't look the fool THAT TIME. So does MW5_CL have a higher tendency to crit over MW5_LB?

Yet another question. Thanks for being patient.:
On dream-walker for me as enhance should i leave Blistering Zombie and Gluttonous Abomination alone and leave it to range or should i get them down to 25% and then leave them to range?

Thank you as a community for letting noobs like me ask questions. I like this thread and its a great help to people like me who are guild less and since reading bosskillers.com guides and watching Tankspot.com movies can tell you so much but IRL experience is what most valuable, well at least to me.

EDIT:
Another question that came to mind to those enhance shaman that have experienced all the fights in ICC to date:

Taking into consideration of ALL the fights in ICC25 to date is it beneficial to gem after hit and expertise cap, Haste or AP? What will benefit more with considering all the fights in ICC25? AP for slow burst dps on add heavy fights where keeping up with a tight priority rotation on a constant target changing fight like Princes, Dream-walker or Deathwhisper can be mind boggling or Haste which benefit more for prolonged single dps fights like Saurfang and Festergut and would also need a high end video card as well.

There are three threads that cover a lot of stuff that that I often refer to:

[Enhancement] BiS gear and set-up discussion (3.3 and onward)
*Enhancement Shaman FAQ (3.3)*
Shaman: Enhancement

Also you should read this article which explains how to utilize shockandawe mod to import your stats with NO BUFFS on to another tool called Enhsim which calculate your EP values (EP being what you should be stacking) among other things and then putting them into PAWN mod so you can have a EP value to every item that will be most valuable to you.

Integrating EnhSim, Shock and Awe, and�Pawn - Big Hit Box - Big Hit Box

Because your EP value fluctuates with every upgrade you should do this procedure with every item upgrade just to be on top of your game.

Also to add on to what stat I/You should be stacking there is 2 school of thought for which stat to stack/gem after capping Special's Hit, Spell Hit & Expertise(for both hands preferebly). One is Haste and the other is Attack Power(AP). EP value wise Haste has a higher value, But I have learned recently that with haste your FPS matters IMO cause I recently had my 280GTX OC fry on me and am using atm a 40 buck video card. I am waiting on my RMA for my video card but I have seen my dps fall off significantly (1k being modest). My GTX 280 OC ran @60 fps on 1920x1200 while this 40 dollar card is running @14 fps on 1920x1200(too lazy to redo my UI temporarily). Also to note your dps with haste will shine on fights like festergut and saurfang. I have not tested/regemmed for AP for adds heavy fights like deathwhisper or dreamwalker, But I am considering it atm with the video card fps issue i am having of late.

OPINION
I was very hesitant to answer questions on this forum cause I am not among the caliber of a lot the enhance shamans who post on these threads but this was a simple enough question for me to point you to the right direction. Good Luck. Just so you know this is not a easy mode class and spec and if you really want to do well with this spec you should look into getting a G11 keyboard the one with 18 more button on the keyboard G1-G18. Yes there are that many spells and the spell priority is that tight. That reason alone and our dps not being like rogues or hunters makes it hard to play and IMO look good compared to other classes dps output.

What unit frames addon is that?

I had a new idea for a new spec and I was curious if someone would not mind simm'ing it for me.
I would do it myself, but I am afraid that my inexperience with the current simulators would yield bad results.


Anyways, here is the idea.

And how much you should never ever rely on Recount for testing things. Recount has been shown to be unreliable for truly accurate results time and time again. Really? On EJ, people relying on Recount for mechanic testing? Log parse or it didn't happen.
