  1. That was brilliantly done and so easy to follow! Will deffo give this build a try as the RNG of wildfire is kind of annoying. Plus it's pretty useless for my level of keys at the moment as everything dies too quickly ~level 15 keys 🙂

  2. Awesome video. Your explanations were clear and easy to follow. Wildfire is great but sometimes the RnG is annoying. The lightning build seems like a fresh getaway.

  3. Goooooood shit ! 👍very well done guide, deserves some subs i think.

    I really enjoy mastery with this build, you got the 15% extra dmg on overloads talent, it helps build up to Ele blast in single target, and higher chance of double buffs from ele blast overload + great aoe with chain lightning overload,, overloaded earthquakes seem to suck pretty hard tho.

    Sometimes it feels like icefury or earthquake (atleast non buffed) aint worth casting when you got decent mastery n crit with chain lightning, especially with storm ele out. Might be the size of the pack and on Tyrannical that does it idk, still new to this spec but enjoying it alot and a nice change of pace from chucking a gazillion lava bursts!

  16. Great video, man! And this is exactly the kind of thing I've loved to see in WoW since the start; alternatives to the contemporary thinking (cookie cutter). I have to say that you did a great job with your explanations and made the spec sound very fun. I'm playing it now and am quite happy to move away from the heavy Fire builds in general.

    Awesome job, man! I've watched the video probably 3 times now just to help brainstorm how best to fit my playstyle with what we have now.

  19. you didn’t mention frost shock while standing still. if there’s a 6+ pack of mobs is it worth using it for the 15% dmg buff? or should i just spam chain lightning, ele blasts and earthquake and save frost shock for if i have to move?
