I think the main idea is that it is a 939 rotation and thus you need 3 things to settle around the crusader strike/HotR. One should always be judging, given the buff it gives to SotR. One as well...

Umm, your theory of getting SS procs for your Ele shaman is rather puzzling to me.

1) Flame shock is a debuff, thus having your shaman use it is wasting a debuff slot.
2) Having him not earth shock...

I would disagree with you on the ret pallie. Ours on Teron does upwards of 1650 dps. Add to that his aura, the 3% crit buff plus uptime on judgements makes him imo very much worth a raid spot.
