About the Author
I'm HawkCorrigan or Hawk for short.
I play Elemental Shaman on a semi-hardcore level on Draenor, primarily focusing on PvE content.
Usually, you can find me lurking around the Earthshrine Discord as one of the Elemental MVPs, answering various questions,
or hanging around Simulationcraft, where I maintain Elemental Shaman modules.
I am also one of the active maintainers for
Storm, Earth and Lava
.
Basic Mistakes
For an Elemental Shaman, just about all mistakes fall under two categories:
Delaying cooldowns (both short rotational cooldowns like
熔岩爆裂
and major cooldowns like
火元素
) unnecessarily.
Downtime where you aren't casting anything. Everyone experiences this to an extent. Yes, even you!
Delaying cooldowns
For small rotational cooldowns, there's one question that should be at the forefront of your mind whenever you're choosing the next spell you cast. "Could I lose any proc or damage if I cast this before something else?" If the answer is yes, there's probably a better choice you could make. If the answer is no, then you're safe to proceed. As an example, if you're at 60
漩涡
and have a charge of
熔岩爆裂
then you should cast the
熔岩爆裂
first even though you can cast
大地震击
. In this case you go to 70
漩涡
which loses you nothing and you can then proceed to cast that
大地震击
. If you cast the
大地震击
first you could lose a full
熔岩爆裂
if you get a
熔岩奔腾
proc. Alternatively, if you're at 95
漩涡
in that scenario you should cast
大地震击
first because you lose more from overcapping on
漩涡
than from the potential
熔岩奔腾
proc.
For longer cooldowns such as
火元素
,
风暴元素
,
风暴守护者
, or
岩浆图腾
you want to cast them as soon as they are up in almost all scenarios. Occasionally you'll want to line these up with periods of major AoE (say in Mythic dungeons or M+,) but in a single-target scenario using these on cooldown is best practice.
Downtime
There are two major categories that cause downtime where you aren't casting anything:
Latency, which can be almost entirely mitigated via the custom lag tolerance setting
Not following the casters ABCs - Always Be Casting
With latency you'll generally have small periods of time between casts depending on your ping and custom lag tolerance setting. To see where your custom lag tolerance is set, type the following in chat:
/dump GetCVar("SpellQueueWindow")
By default this is set to 400. This can be lowered to be closer to your average ping by typing the following into chat and replacing "latency" with your desired lag tolerance:
/console SpellQueueWindow "latency"
For example, I have mine set to 200! One thing to keep in mind on this setting though, is that if it's set too low it can cause commands to be missed by the server and will feel like input lag. If you experience that after changing this setting, then set it higher or simply back to the blizzard default of 400.
When following those caster ABCs, there's one thing that always comes up in conversation and that's movement. Blizzard made two changes that heavily impact how Elemental handles movement all the way back at the beginning of BFA. The first is that they removed our old pal Gust of Wind, and the second is that they made
冰霜震击
cost no
漩涡
and only a slight dps loss to cast versus
闪电箭
. If you're on the move and can't cast anything else, then make sure you're using
冰霜震击
to fill in the gaps as it does so quite nicely.
Primal Elementalist
The extra spells you get on your
火元素
&
风暴元素
from this spell are important enough that they need their own section. This is especially true if you use
风暴元素
!
流星
&
狂风怒号
are spells you can use once per Elemental, and should be used every time.
流星
has no strings attached to it, and can be used at any time that your
流星
is active. For
狂风怒号
however, your
风暴元素
must have
召唤闪电
up first or you'll lose 75% of the damage it does which significantly reduces the impact of your
风暴元素
! You can macro both
流星
&
狂风怒号
into one button with the following macro:
#showtooltip
/use Tempest;Meteor;
You can place
召唤闪电
into the above macro, but I advise against this. This is because your
风暴元素
can have
召唤闪电
on auto-cast, and so long as it does it will always prioritize casting
召唤闪电
first. It's recommended that you have a Weak Aura to track
召唤闪电
if you have
风暴元素
as this is an extremely important part of the strength of that talent.
Also, remember that
召唤闪电
has a 15 second duration but a 10 second cooldown, and
狂风怒号
is an 8 second (reduced by haste) channel. You want your
风暴元素
to cast as many
召唤闪电
s as possible, and it can only get a maximum of 3 out per
风暴元素
. Don't cast
狂风怒号
at the wrong time and miss out on a cast of
召唤闪电
.
狂风怒号
is best used immediately after
召唤闪电
. Your
风暴元素
has its own separate GCD, so using
狂风怒号
will interrupt other casts which you want to avoid if at all possible.
General Log Analysis
There are multiple resources to get you started in this area, such as our Warcraftlogs Guide or Wowanalyzer Guide and those are enough to really get the ball rolling for you. Wowanalyzer covers most of the basics itself, so I'm going to laser-focus on one specific thing that it doesn't cover nearly as well, and that's how to make sure you had
召唤闪电
up for
狂风怒号
. We'll first take a
Sample Log
of me beating on a training dummy!
You can most easily check that you had
召唤闪电
up for
狂风怒号
up in the Casts section depicted in the screenshot below:
Next, you'll need to select your Primal
风暴元素
from the "All Friendlies" drop-down menu as pictured below:
As you can see, your
风暴元素
casts 3 spells! The filler spell, and the one that displays by default, is
呼啸狂风
. We don't need to see
呼啸狂风
casts though, but instead the more important
召唤闪电
&
狂风怒号
. You have the graph display or remove the casts of these spells by clicking their name at the top-center section of the graph, as shown below:
As you can see in the screenshot above, for my first
风暴元素
I cast
狂风怒号
right after the second cast of
召唤闪电
and for my second
风暴元素
I cast it right after the first cast of
召唤闪电
. I appropriately lined up
召唤闪电
&
狂风怒号
, which is good. However, you can see small gaps between their casts which means I almost certainly interrupted a
呼啸狂风
cast to use
狂风怒号
which is not optimal.
