Hello Shaman,In an upcoming PTR build there are some changes to fix some set bonus issues and a few other class changes.
Set Bonus Issues- Lowered the mana cost of the Fire Elemental and Primal Fire Elemental abilities by roughly 90%.
- Feral Spirits no longer occupy a totem slot. While this was convenient to see their time remaining under the player’s unit frame, there were issues with more Feral Spirits being available. This new set bonus was causing a problem with too many things occupying a limited number of slots and causing either totems or your Feral Spirits to despawn prematurely.
Generic Shaman Changes- Flame Shock now has a maximum target cap of 6.
- Frost Shock damage has been increased by 40%.
- Elemental Conduit (Venthyr Shaman Legendary) now also causes Flame Shock critical strikes, whether the direct damage or the damage over time, to reduce the cooldown of Chain Harvest by 1.0 seconds.
Elemental Shaman Change- Icefury (talent) now increases the damage of Frost Shock by 225%, down from 300%. This is to counteract the Frost Shock buff above and to keep Icefury’s damage roughly the same.
Enhancement Shaman Changes- Lava Lash Rank 2, a passive effect gained at level 22, now also causes your Lava Lash to spread Flame Shock to up to 3 enemy targets within 8 yards in addition to the existing Lava Lash cooldown reduction.
- Unruly Winds (Conduit) scaling changed from 20% at lowest rank and 35% at highest rank, to 15% at lowest rank and 50% at highest rank.
- Magma Fist (Conduit) scaling changed from 15% at lowest rank and 25% at highest rank, to 12% at lowest rank and 37.2% at the highest rank.
- Focused Lightning (Conduit) scaling changed from 1% at the lowest rank and 4.5% at the highest rank, to 5% at the lowest rank and 12% at the highest rank.
- Chilled to the Core (Conduit) scaling changed from 21% at the lowest rank and 35% at the highest rank, to 30% at the lowest rank and 72% at the highest rank.
