![]() Necklace of Arcane Spheres - The Violet Hold (H).Necklace of the Chrono-Lord - The Culling of Stratholme (N).Pendant of the Outcast Hero - 25 Emblem of Heroism.King Dred's Helm - Drak'Tharon Keep (H).Note: Strength is now a wasted stat (1 STR = 1 AP), avoid it!Įasier said than done huh? Fear not, there's a gear list below! Note: The dodge reduction element of expertise will vary from encounter to encounter: it will be useless against bosses that are constantly casting because mobs cannot dodge while casting, but useful against mobs that do not cast or only cast instant spells.Īfter capping out your hit/expertise ratings you'll want to bring your attack power and crit up as high as possible without losing those caps.Īgility now offers attack power and melee crit, intellect provides attack power (with talents), spell crit and a larger mana pool, while crit rating now gives both melee and spell crit. The cap for expertise is 6.50% ( 214 Expertise Rating) to knock dodge completely off the table. In most raid situations you'll be attacking from behind so there is no chance of parry, only dodge and you'll want to reduce this. Note: This also takes care for your special hit cap since the hit rating stat is now shared, obviously!Įxpertise reduces the chance that a mob can dodge and parry your attacks. This takes it down further to 367 and 341 for Draenei. Your spells have a 17% (16% for Draenei with Heroic Presence) chance to miss against a level 83 boss making the hit cap 446 or 420 for Draenei.Īnother 3% of that can be taken care of by raid debuffs such as Misery and improved Faerie Fire. It's still not recommended to aim for melee (white) hit cap but you really do not want your ES failing or having a MW5 stack miss and go to waste. Thanks to MW, hit rating is now the most desirable stat to an Enhancement Shaman until capped. Here's a run-down from highest priority to lowest. Generally when you enter combat you'll open with SS followed by an ES with a LL coming right after, wait until you gain 5 stacks of MW then lightning bolt (or chain lightning depending on if AOE is acceptable) then it's just a matter of following the queue!Īnother thing that has changed since WotLK is our ranking of which stats we need to stack in order to achieve the highest possible dps output. This basically means hitting your highest dps skill when it is off CD. Since the release of all our delicious new talents there is no REAL rotation to follow, we must now follow a "priority queue". Now that you know what you are, let's move on to how you do what you do! Chain Lightning and Lightning Bolt instant casts triggered by a 5 stack of the Maelstrom Weapon talent.Fire Totems, pulsed direct or AoE fire damage.Elemental Shocks, shared cooldown instant elemental damage offering stealth prevention, snaring or interruption.Stormstrike, a 10s (8s talented) cooldown instant attack with both weapons. ![]() ![]()
