1st: Magma totem is better cleave and single target dps then searing totem. 2nd: lightning bolt is the higher dmg spell in ICC. 3rd: You have 500 hit and your wearing a str hit ring? 4th: Your geming AP over haste? 5th: I have no idea were you got that spec from because its the worst spec I've seen since Naxx. 6th: your glyphs are wrong too. That list is longer. Now here is your chance to prove me wrong! 1st: were did you get that spec from and saying you theory craft can you load your XML sheet from rawr for me? as an attachment only. 2nd: please do a rotation breakdown for me because you should cast Earth shock more then 8 times when you cast fire nova 24 times meaning you were at the dummy for greater then 240 seconds which means you could of cast up too 40 shocks. 3rd: please tell me when you cast flame shock. 4th: please tell me how you keep constant with your class.
I guess I overlooked my totem bar when I took the screenshot. On boss, yes. On dummies hitting a second target was better. I'll blame Item Manager on this one :O Yes, when I first gemmed this shaman I did not have enough stats to get haste in front of AP in terms of AEP. Fixed. I had severe mana issues when I first started raidings which would explain my current(old) spec. Yes one of my glyph had to be updated. Thanks. I doubt I know more then you but I'll go ahead and play the smart ass I had severe mana issues when I first started raidings so I took some mana reducing talents. Now that I have somewhat better gear I forgot to remove these. I'll start with the basic priorities system that I use for boss. I use most of my CD right off the bat or time the DPS cd's with Bloodlust. Lighting shield Lighting Bolt (if MW=5) Stormstrike (To keep the buff up, may skip when WF timer still has a second or two left.) Magma Totem Flame Shock (when DoT is down) Earth Shock Lava Lash Fire Nova As for your comment on the # of fire nova I think you overlooked my screenshot. I'll show you what I mean. You seems to be good in maths. How many melee swings would I have if I had attacked the target dummies for 240seconds(ignoring everything but the weapons atk speed). 240/2.6*2 = 184 swings Recount shows 129 melee swings. If I put my weapon swing at exactly 2.6 seconds(which is less in-game) I would get a maximum of 168 seconds...but im sure you already knew this. My WF counts would be more if the fight lasted 240seconds too. I cant achieve 6.5kdps whitout auto-attacking too ^^ I use EJ to keep in touch with class changes. Overall, your post made me realize that my shaman was much more geared then what he was before I looked at his BiS gems/enchants as well as talents(i dropped the mana talents)
No idea how to put an attachment on this forum. If you could tell me how Ill do it. For the moment, copy pasting work I guess.

Well the simple fact you went and changed your glyphs and re-gemmed a few pieces of gear unless they were upgrades, didn't pay enough attention, One thing you could do is get the haste Arp badge ring. That would be an AP increase and a haste increase. You did just about everything I wanted you to do. Your comment about the swing timer/number of nova's it isn't 100% correct due to the fact that droping magma totem and spells reset the swing timer which would lead to a lower number but that still isn't a low enough of a number to matter. That was me fishing a comment out of you that would of lead to ether showing you know what your talking about or didn't know your class at all. If you spent the time to get the new ring then i don't really have an issue with you but your PR is a little off but with the changes coming to flame shock and the glyph going to have such a major impact on the spell in it self the PR is probably going to be changing and with your gear level your PR is slightly different then what mine is as well. PS thanks for posting your Rawr XML, I just wanted you to post it to see if you read everything.
yes, feel free to try and catch us around raid time and we can speak further about your application, but with pepper's mark of approval, its more about person more than your toon to discuss.
