You admit that you're not in the beta, yet you can do nothing but bitch about how horrible everything is. Don't you find that a bit melodramatic?

Original Post:

Seriously, this Lava Lash is a joke. They noticed enhancement dps is mediocre because they buffed everyone else like crazy and all we got is Maelstrom Weapon.

If they want to fix our low dps, they could give us a talent that makes our offhand damage from 50% to 100%. They could also revert WF back to its old state without cooldown, disallow it on offhand and buff flametongue. If that's not enough, they can improve the sucky Static Shock / Lightning Shield. This would make weapon choice, rotation and damage calculations "easy".

As it is now, everything is even more horrible than it was in TBC. I don't mind a rotation that requires some brain to figure out what ability is best to use, but this is just a fight with the GCD and mana. I am not in the beta, but can anyone tell me how much mana you burn with SS - Shock - LL... - LB/LvB and Lightning Shield up? With the nerf to Shamanistic Focus and no Water Shield up, does this work at all?
And if people skip Static Shock and Lightning Shield because damage output is low and mana a problem, why is no one complaining about it on the beta forums? By now everyone should know that Blizzard isn't fixing anything without complaining. And Shamanistic Rage still isn't split up into 2 talents, which is idiotic.
