I was pulling 140k DPS steady back with Malev/Tyran before moltdown when we had broken Mastery..
Hit > Haste = Intellect > Mastery > Crit.
Thats your stat priority.

I wish i could give you also the link For Totemspot Elemental 5.4 guide, which is kinda the Bible For every ele shaman who wants to improve himself, but i couldn't find it anywhere :( anyway, if you want a summary, here it is:
As stat priority, you should go Int = hit to 17% > haste > mastery > crit.
Talking about talents, you should definitely go Echo of the Elements and Unleashed fury if you have more than 500 ilvl and the fight is single target, otherwise Elemental Blast for cleave fights and less gear. Other talents doesn't directly increase your damage output, check the guide for more informations, same for glyphs.
The spell priority list is as follows:
- fire totem down (searing or fire elemental)
- flame shock
- unleash elements if specced into unleashed fury
- lava burst surge proc
- elemental blast if specced into it
- normal lava burst cast
- earth shock with 7 charges, 4 or more charges if the remaining time of flame shock is < 8 secs
- lightning bolt
Use fire elemental and Ascendance whenever they are off cooldown, try to sync them with your int procs.
Hope i've been helpful :)
first off the priority is mastery > haste > rest (and hit capped ofc)
source? me 505 ele pve 180k dps
edit: rotation is wrong, very wrong. no wonder your dps is poor.
i should make a guide it seems
Mastery is only priotised over Haste after you passively reach the 35% haste cap. Which if you looked at the guides for 5.4 include the average ilvl of the teir gear being 565 for normal all the way up to 580 for HC Warforged.Quote:

Don't try and quote anything retail related on warmane since we are only on patch 5.4 for class changes and not content and gear levels.
Hi,Guys
I'm currently playing elemental shaman ilvl 521,my haste is at (8096) ~25%, my mastery is at 49-50%, hit 15% and i usually do around 120-130k dps in ToT 10m ( 105-110k stable on the dummy). I'm using Echo of Elements and Unlieshed Fury. My rotation is :
1. First i put Searing totem or Fire Elemental totem.
2. Next i cast Flame Shock on the target and i refresh it 4-5s before it expires.
3. I Use Unlieshed Elements, followed by a Lava Burst.
4. I try to use as many Lava procs i can get and use Lightining Bolt as a filler.
5.Between casting Lightning bolt and Lava Burst i use Earth Shock whenever i get 6-7 charges of Lightning shield.
So my question is, is there something wrong in my playstyle(rotation) so i loose some DPS, or this DPS is normal and every shaman with my gear would normaly do. I'm just curious, because comparing to other classes with the same item level i do fairly low dmg. I would appreciate if someone more experienced with playing elemental shaman can give some tips or info about their gameplay. In particular if you can mention how many % haste or mastery should i get and why haste>mastery or mastery>haste.
Everything i know is theory knowledge based on reading countless guides on PVE ele shaman because my guild is waiting for september to do some serious pve stuff, meanwhile we tryhard in bgs XD but i played both wotlk and cata 25m hc difficulty, always as ele, and i know two or three things about elemental. First of all, there are some major issues still to be solved about classes, so the dps charts you see may be not accurate at all, don't trust your recount.Quote:

What i can suggest you is to download SimulationCraft and check directly what your dps output should be, and maybe read some guides. I found particularly interesting Totemspot, mmo champion and Method guides on ele shaman, there are some pro tips which could improve your gameplay. I personally can sustain more or less 110k on training dummy without using ascendance on full griev gear with pvp trinket on, so maybe your dps output could be a bit poor, even if still respectable.
haste>mastery >crit.
In ToT gear you should be pulling on a dummy between 130-135k dps on a dummy sustained (30+million damage)
ele shamans are close to what they were back in retail ToT. The set bonus is bugged though, so chain lightning will proc the 2p bonus over and over.
Hit is bugged by the way. Aim for 7.5% not 15%.
