/castsequence reset=8 Windfury Totem, Grace of Air Totem, nill


If anyone has anything better then this let me know. I have been trying to write one at work that I think will work and that I only have to hit once. Thought the best I think I have been able to come up with is a two hit.

EDIT: *Even so, the enhancement shaman will notice a slight loss in DPS since the act of dropping totems resets the swing timer thus making you hit less.* So dont bitch at my DPS if Im doing this IE the macro is set for a 8 sec CD (WF buff is 9 sec) so out of 8 secs im spending 3 sec not attacking because of the GCD. Tired doing this on Brut was around 1400 DPS, only did WF on the Kill did 1609 DPS

* Note: On Brut was not using normal MH, because of ISB debuff being used by Siphon proc. Still looking into if it really use the ISB debuff or not.)

So what's the comparison though? If it knocks off X of your dps, does it increase the other 4 people's by 4*Y that makes it better?

It would be whatever, 88 agi is for that class (rogue, hunter, ret pally, druid , warrior.) For shamans 88 agi is 3.52% crit.

If totem twisting is such a huge loss of dps, why not stick the enhancement shaman in the hunter group? and stick the resto shaman in the windfury group?

That EJ thread is nuts with the maths.

The short answer looks like 120-130 raid dps gained.

On brut that might make a difference. Although is 130 raid dps is the difference, then having 2 locks with no shaman/lazerchiken/spriest is a loss of over 600 raid dps, and we may wanna look at that first ~_~.

And Jeff, Siphon's proc counts as a DoT for ISB charges, so it doesn't use it.
