Tips!! Shamans avoid Stormborn..

[Machowden]

don´t only look at the skills themselves...

I´ve found some essences for example that do air damage..and guess what? yes it´s raised by stormborn.

The Arcane Hand npc sells a nice thingy that does 140ish air damage proc.

On my Inquisitor it procs for roughly 200
while on my shaman with stormborn it procs for roughly 350

Stormborn increases ALL Air damage, no matter where it comes from.

Nice, great info.
havent thought about checking that so it might be a bit more usefull then ^^

May i ask.
what does massive blow gotta do with Stormborn?

Even tho the talent doesn't buff it, spending 5 points in Stormborn will buff Massive Blow via the Passive. It's also just generally good for Jolt which at every 6 sec is worth it.


Thanks for posting some data earlier though, there definetly does seem to be something buggy about Stormborn's affect on periodic dot Air damage which really needs to get looked at. There have been quite a few bugs reported but no word on anything.

I should also point out that if you're not maxing shaman it's a good idea as well. Playing Just/Shaman, if you're not spamming crushing blow, enhancing Jolt is your best option because none of the other stuff really helps.

The above is my current build.
And my rotation is:


either go Right on the dots when i run in or first take Depravity then run in with dots.
Then i take massive blow to get the cd off, lightning hammer,
and sometimes strike of maelstrom to get those dots too.

After that i spam Crushing blow, and hope for a new massive blow/reactive to use
And i renew the dots whenever they go out and same with massive/lighning++
So mostly spaming Crushing yeah.


I will keep this build and inform of the crit dmg i get at 50
and ill tell the stats ill have at that point too, for information ^^
