Hey there.
Does anyone know how important or valuable spell haste is for ele shaman in TBC?
Spell crit is obviously important, but how about spell haste?
Having in mind LB and CL are very strong but you have to cast them.
Talking mostly about PVP here, but also PVE.
Thanks
As I recall, haste is a very good stat for elemental shamans, but its hard to get enough of untill you hit t6 content. I'm not 100% sure of this tho, so perhaps wait for someone with a better answer.
Haste is, after spell damage and crit a very good stat for ele shamans, but outside of trinkets, potions, drums and bloodlust not easy to get til T6.
For PVE it will linearly increase your damage and even allow you to transition into a more mana efficient 4/1 rotation with approximately 140 haste.
For PVP it is even more important, it will not only increase your damage and healing, it will also make you less vulnerable to interrupts and pushbacks.

The haste gem was added in 2.4.2, the jewel design requires exalted reputation with the shattered sun. Until the opening of the isle of quel'danas there is no way to obtain it.

This is all, of course, assuming hit-cap.
35% crit is with t5 right ?Quote:
