Tier 4 apparently, for the elemental specced shaman. The stats aren't that bad, the damage done by healing and spells is very nice, coupled with the spell critical strike. It could make for quite a good elemental set. That, and the fact that it can be further enhanced with gems & other jewels.

The set bonuses are not quite bad at all. 20 extra damage from Wrath of Air totem is welcomed, and reduced mana cost for your next spell (it doesn't say wether it's offensive or healing, so I'm guessing it's for your next genearl spell) is great.

Take also into account the fact that it's only a 5 piece item set. That leaves room for other items to come into play and further enhance your character.

Lol I love thas set!. My favourite shaman are elemental. + dmg gained from it is pretty nice and also free gem slots will make it insane for elemental. I think this set is more pve oriented then pvp ... I want to get it asap as i hit (my guild m8s too) lv70 so can u tell me from which instances quest items drop? I think wont be so hard to obtain.

Thx

They did not modify this set for the 2.0.10 patch. Gotta wonder what they're thinking.

Sure, you can still throw a heal after a spell crit, but, give me a break, this makes it nearly the most useless 4 set bonus out their now.

I only hope this gets future revision.

Comment by sepirion

I can confirm the bonus is working, and is not consumed by Clearcasting. A very nice bonus indeed.

Comment by zagi

At 33.3% spell critical strike chance the 4-set bonus is like having 36 mana chopped off every spell, which is quite nice.

4 piece Cyclone: 33.33% Spellcrit rating..

Normal - Normal - Crit(40%)
Normal - Normal - Crit(80%)
Normal - Normal - Crit(120%)
Normal - Normal - Crit(160%)
Normal - Normal - Crit(200%)

= 2 proccs, 540 mana saved / 15 = 36 mana saved per cast.

With the incoming nerf to Elemental Clear casting(reduces spell cast by 60% not 100 anymore), the 4 piece bonus will be a welcome to try to keep Elemental Shaman competitve in raiding.

I just think they got no clue what they want with the shaman's tier 4. With the change of clearcast it will be like this: (I think)

Cast a LB > It crits > you gain ClearCast(LB now costs under 100mana to cast) > you get a proc from the set bonus > your next LB is now another 100 mana cheaper instead of 270 because it only costs you 100 since you already have your CC active. With an 11% procrate on a CRIT, how can this ever be a good set-bonus, they should really change it because they way I see it, it's just a big mistake since they have changed the shaman's CC.

Comment by Tarrek

Assuming a 33% crit chance, which is "decent" for a pve elemental shaman, and an 11% chance to proc on a crit, you get a 3.85% chance to save 270 mana.. Say 4% for ease of math. So every 25th LB will save 270 mana. The cost of an LB is 297 mana talented.

25 lightning bolts will cost you 7425 mana if we disregard Clearcasting, 7155 with one of them procing.. A pitiful 3.7% increase in mana efficiency.

Give this set the mages' T4 2-piece bonus instead.. Elemental shamans need it more than they do. (And I say this having a lv70 mage as well..)

Comment by Flolah

Something I do not see here, but would be interesting in knowing about: is the proc effect consumed by recasting totems? I could see that as a huge mana saver during mobile fights, or trash pulls.

The 2 piece bonus also gives a +20healing along with the +20 damage it says it gives. This way you could also benefit healers that may be in your group for a raid.

this is a good set for T4 level raiders although the only pieces i would recommend getting are the hat (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=35760 andhttps://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=34220 are great in there) and the shoulders.(2 https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=24059 are good for that). not only are they individually the best at the T4 raiding level, the 2 set bonus is worth getting while the 4 set bonus is not. although it gives a free lightning bolt (with the proper spec) mana shouldnt be too much of a problem with 4/5 unrelenting storm, water shield, mana spring, and added mp5 from other pieces of gear the other pieces can easily be replaced: https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=33965 is a direct upgrade from the chest, and this one costs 75 badges from G'eras in shattrath. the gloves can be replaced withhttps://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=33534, which cost 60 badges and gemmed withhttps://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=35316 and https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=35761. the pants are easily bested byhttps://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=30541, which drops of heroic black stalker but can take a lot of runs to get. gem it withhttps://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=24056 in blue, and the other sockets puthttps://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=35316 andhttps://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=24059. replacing the gloves and pants will cost you some spell hit, but a T4 raider can get gethttps://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=28789 which will be extremely useful with reduced spell hit.https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=29191 will also help get a bit of spell hit. the badges shouldnt take too long to get if you do weekly raids and do heroics regularly. the blue gems will also come easily from the heroics and raids, not to mention dailies so there's no need to worry about that.

Comment by Thottbot

Haha, set obviously desined for elemental speced shaman, which is no doubt have talent point in Elemental focus, which procs on spellcrit after last patch - I hope Blizz replase the 4 peaces bonus with something usefull since there is no way to use it like it is

Comment by Thottbot

There is a set for spec if u didnt see it... -.-'

Comment by Thottbot

the set bonus now grants 120 mana instead of reducing mana cost, so if u have elemental focus talent, when u crit ur next cast costs no mana and u gain 120 mana!

Comment by Thottbot

This is so very true. There have been many times now that I have proven this same thing to people. The reason I keep playing this game is the strategy involved in hybrid builds, and how I can show people that not every class has to be a certain build to get the job done. My most recent endeavour was to PROVE many people that a Disc/Holy priest can do very similar dmg to a shadow priest, and still heal with no problems... Not only have I shown people the error of their ignorance, it has also convinced a few to drop shadow and respec after seeing me in action. Tangent aside, I cant wait to get this set on my shaman.

Comment by Thottbot

Whats all this rubbish about hybrids just being healing classes? how many warriors are out there performing %^&* dps and gathering gear to pvp with? If these people would all be defense geared/specced resto speccs would not be needed at all outside endgame. I'm resto while raiding myself, basically because my guild needs me to.

Anyway, ele is for pve, resto is for pve. That is what works for me.

Hail Lord Kubness the Almighty Pew Pew!

Comment by Thottbot

after looking at this set again, it seems to me that the 4 piece set bonus is completely useless. you get a chance to reduce the spell cost of the next spell cast after a crit by 270, yet we have a talent that gives us a clearcast (free cast) after every single crit. is it just me or is something seriously wrong here?

Comment by Thottbot

I'm only a lvl 40 and don't have elemental focus yet but within the first couple of seconds I can throw out about 1200-1300 dmg.

Comment by Thottbot

There is a problem with this set, that on certain peaces +SpellCrit is replaced with +SpellHit.
Theoreticaly it looks ok since you need some +SpellHit in PVE, but in fact choosing gear with no +SpellCrit makes Elemental shaman to perform less efectively. I personaly want +SpellCrit on every sinle peace of my equipment - naturaly that will add up to my mana effectivenes because more crits = more free casts and, well, more damage - what else is more important than that?
And you know what? Maxing crit makes you most effective in both PvP and PvE with one set of crit gear!

Comment by Thottbot

The 4/5 setbonus is quite amazing. It seems the tooltip is quite wrong. As I got my Chest from Mag on Tuesday I was amazed as the Proc-Buff did not disappear after the first cast. The mana-cost-reduction-buffs stays on U 15seks long and does not go away! That means 15seks long -270 mana for each cast. And it proccs quite often. Yesterday killing Maulgar it procct exactly 4 times during the whole fight... that`s 1 min of mana-reduction in about 4 mins of fight! Awesome Bonus!

Comment by Thottbot

Chance to proc is 11%. So to find out when you actually get the buff, is to (11% of your crit rate.)

Comment by Thottbot

OK, I tried some AV today and it feels like they've upped the proc rate (would make sense tbh). I think it's more close to ~20% now.
