Nothing for you in this build it seems.







More...
 
heh at least they're trying to make holy more interesting hawn ;)

damn it's so hard to decide what to play in cata.. either rogue, warlock, warr, mage, priest or druid..
 
# Warrior Duelist/Gladiator - Earn the Duelist or Gladiator title as a Warrior.
wtf... they gonna do that for every class? wtf is this stupid crap

I dont like their idea of the new "surge of light" but we'll see, whatevs. More like a nerf really.

lol wholly crap nice Thorns buff, that is just ridiculous
they gonna add some minute long cooldown to it too? lol

awww giganitic nerf to Efflorescence, i was really lookin forward to that

Silencing Shot no longer deals damage. lol

Fulmination (Tier 5) *New* - When you have more than 3 Lightning Shield charges active, your Earth Shock spell will consume any surplus charges, instantly dealing their total damage to the enemy target.
nice
 
lol what's wrong with the duelist/gladiator one? it's anyone in the guild and they don't expect everyone to be a gladiator, just there for a challenge.
haha thorns yeah looks weird, like a mini retaliation or something. efflor was mega op but looks pretty shit now, esp if theres any movement whatsoever ><
silencing shot change good, better than just macroing it into every shot so it stays on cd
as for fulmination.. seems pathetic.. why is it in elemental, for start, at tier 5 no less.. why would you waste 2 gcds just to finish off with no shield and pitiful damage and less mana regen from no water shield? and in pvp, you're almost always wanting to frost shock instead of earth shock for the slow, AND you need water shield in pvp or you're going to oom. completely useless talent atm
 
Its dumb because it has to be a warrior not just any class.
 
pretty sure it's just an example cause it'd look a bit boring to see that copy pasted for every class ;)
 
Rolling Thunder (Tier 4) *New* - When you deal damage with Lightning Bolt or Chain Lightning while your Lightning Shield ability is active, you have a 30/60% chance to recover 1% of your mana and to generate an additional Lightning Shield charge, up to a maximum of 0/9 charges.


Is gay seeing as i dont use Lightning shield at all as elemental so its another wasted talent
 
you will be using lightning shield if you take that talent won't you ;) since it'll be giving you a crapload of mana back by itself, wouldnt need water shield
 
The elemental changes seems good to be honest.
Mana gain from lightning shield make sense, with that earthshock consuming excess charges >3, potentially we are talking about 6 charges damage. Now as enh, my shield damage is about 2+k per hit, with ele sp, it should be higher. We could be talking about 15+k damage on top of earthshock. This is good.

No more lame thundestorm mana regen.
 
Yeah i was confused on how it would work, water shield now gives mana passively + more on hit consuming a charge.
And i couldnt quiet weight up passive + consuming charges for mana regen vs using lightning shield with a max of 60% to gain 1% mana back.
Lightning shield would be interesting i guess. Other then then i agree elemental has some srs shit comming to it in cata, all the builds ive read over and latest its gonna be one hell of a fun spec to play with so many current raiding issues solved, ie movement downtime etc
