FINALLY a proper shaman build - thank you! My current skill setup is very similar, but I've been using Warcry and Tornados instead of Wolves and Gathering Storm. My biggest setback currently is trying to get Tempest Maw, but I've had no luck when using Ascendance Runes on 1-handed axes.

@@LurkinPT I've been using it with Gust of Renewal and Swift Wings maxed out. They reduce the mana cost and improve your mana regen. Without those, it can definitely eat up your mana without any mana regen elsewhere. It's not a primary source of damage for this build, but I still find it useful if I need to damage something when there's a modifier for enemy health regen and it's a dangerous pack to stay too close to when my Fury Leap and Battlecry are on cd.

@LurkinPT if you take the node that binds it (tornado) to you, it adds a cooldown so it doesn't proc more than the cd allows.

Really nice idea, i really would like to do a cold version of this, BUT when you change your thorn totem to cold and gathering storm to cold friends of the tempest doesn't give storm stacks, that's too sad, i hope they fix it soon.. Also i think a scepter with an axe is so much better than 2 unique axes, in a scepter you get more melee dmg and more spell dmg by itself and also you can get Flat spell lightning damage + lifeleech with lightning spells, or more attack speed, more lightning spell damage and also lightning penetration as a suffix.

@Mdntech3000 4 ай бұрын

Ah damn…that really sucks..hopefully they fix that soon I really want to test out cold too. I think cold could be really insane especially with maelstrom.

@Leprocotic 3 ай бұрын

Hate to double comment on on this, but I finally decided to just swap over to this build entirely, and the damage output is insane for enemy packs. The only major drawback is that it seems to have trouble maintaining the storm stacks in single target scenarios. I opted for more health by focusing on % health where possible on gear and you can get your HP pool up to over 2600 since this build utilizes so many flat health passives. Shaman does seem to have a bit of survival issues in dangerous packs with empowered monoliths, so that huge bump in health is a major game changer in progression on its own.

@@Mdntech3000 Still seems like crossed threads - how does "Aspect of the Boar" help maintain "Storm Bolt" stacks? This may be a difference between wolves and crows, as I am using crows, but *so often* I am at 0 storm stacks, which means I have to stop smacking things to throw down Gathering Storm, then sit around and wait while everything is trying to eat my face for stacks to build. Then I blow through them and am back at 0 again. I never see you get below ~13-14 stacks. What am I missing?

@ytubestolemyhandle 3 ай бұрын

Try switching Wolves and Leap for Warcry and Maelstrom. Warcy can generate 4 maelstrom stacks every 4 seconds so you generally get to 6+ stacks easily, (and it has talents that make it rain lighting bolts within maelstrom if you have 6 stacks - which can be lowered to 3 min depending on how many talents you waste for it), that way you can keep maelstrom off your bar to still be able to use an emergency Leap. But who knows if it's worth it in the end. Hybridizing damage is nice and all but you no longer get full benefit from %Lighting Damage and gotta use %spell damage and % elemental damage instead if you want both lighting and cold to benefit. Tho I'm leveling my 2nd werebear druid just to see if a cold melee bear or DoT frostbite bear are any good compared to my ol' lighting bear. Probably not, since Lighting bear demolishes monos by merely walking at brisk pace lol. The Ice bears would have to hit the whole screen at once to even come close to OPness of Lightning bear

You use gathering storm 1 or two times, then wait a second or two (literally sometimes just a second) and then your wolves plus storm totem will keep your stacks up.

The mapping looks smooth but how well does the build do on bosses? I am currently running a frost shaman with malestrom&avalanche and it is great for mapping but bosses oneshot me with every single ability. Even mapping sometimes I die very fast. Also, on my build I run storm crows with teleport but sometimes I replace it with leap for bosses because the crows die when I need to teleport :/

@Mdntech3000 4 ай бұрын

This is definitely a better mapper than bosser. TBH bossing as a melee just feels...eh, so many bosses I lose dps / stacks of lagon and ramp time which make bosses take longer. With more defensive investment, spefically aspect of the boar effect on idols and gear this build would do MUCH better as it can facetank a bunch of ability (at least around 200 corruption). Still have to improve gear a lot.
