Enhancement Shaman: Rotation

Client build 1.60.1.70425 · updated

The Enhancement priorities, top to bottom: use the first one that applies.

Level 40–60 with Maelstrom Weapon (projected)

  1. Rage of the Farseer with trinkets and racials, when you can stay on the target for 25 seconds. Unconfirmed
  2. Lightning Bolt at 5 stacks of Maelstrom Weapon, ideally inside Stormstrike's 12 seconds. Unconfirmed
  3. Stormstrike on cooldown.
  4. Earth Shock if Flame Shock is already ticking; otherwise Flame Shock.
  5. Fire Nova on packs.

Packs

  1. Magma Totem or Searing Totem down for Fire Nova; Magma is expensive, so not on every pack.
  2. Fire Nova your real AoE; it is mana-hungry.
  3. Flame Shock on the mobs that will live longest.
  4. Earthbind Totem to slow runners and spread-out packs.

Cooldowns and emergencies

While leveling

  1. Windfury Weapon on your weapon from 30; Rockbiter Weapon solo before that, Flametongue Weapon in groups with a tank.
  2. Call of the Elements before the pull: Strength of Earth (or Stoneskin when you take a lot of damage), Flametongue or Searing, Mana Spring, Grounding.
  3. Lightning Bolt rank 1 to pull a mob to you.
  4. Stormstrike on cooldown from 25, and again whenever Improved Stormstrike resets it.
  5. Earth Shock right after Stormstrike to spend the 20%; Frost Shock instead if threat is a problem.
  6. Flame Shock alternate with Earth Shock in groups when the target will live.
  7. Fire Nova with a Fire totem down, if mana allows.
  8. Healing Wave between pulls, or mid-fight to save yourself.
