Earth Shock is a spell that has a huge amount of burst damage and chained with a Stormstrike debuff and or the proper elemental combat additions it can hit for 2000 plus.

Comment by cooespooh

Curiosity question; does anyone else remember (early on in game history) when ALL Shaman shocks created a large amount of threat? I remember when I was first starting there was a select few shamen who could actually TANK when they were enchantment spec, due to the fact that the shocks created so much threat.

How does scaling work with this spell, does it take from spell power as well as attack power?

Comment by bogz13

i think this is the spell with the best mana-damage raport cuz for me at lvl 77 with 2 points in convection ,elemental focus and shamanistic focus her cost is only 35 MANA!:D:D:D:D
PS : I mean the rank 9 of this spell .

If you miss the old interrupt effect of earth shock you can use this simple macro to use earth shock and wind shear simultaneously for the desired effect.

/cast Earth Shock(Rank 10)
/cast Wind Shear

Comment by BagraEtch

For all elem sham's, I recommend this macro

/cast Earth Shock
/cast Wind Shear

Don't doubt its awesomeness, I have tested it and it works wonders... now imagine the full scale Fulmination release added to this... (hint: enemy caster is dead)

Downside: Wind Shear can only be cast at 25 yards instead of max distance like Earth Shock

Comment by Loetek

This is actually a spell you should be casting while healing if another class is already not supplying the debuff. Just make sure to assist the tank.

Lightning Shield can be considered as the new resources for Elemental Shaman, one can have 7 charge max, but as the original charge will never be consumed, so it actually means on can have 6 surplus Lightning Shield charge max.
it generate by (spell triggered by Mastery: Elemental Overload function same):

Lightning Bolt (has a 60% chance to generate 1 Lightning Shield charge (Rolling Thunder (Shaman T14 Elemental 4P Bonus double this effect)))
Chain Lightning (each jumps has a 60% chance to generate 1 Lightning Shield charge; Lava Beam (switch by Elemental Shaman turn into Fire ascendant) function same (Rolling Thunder (Shaman T14 Elemental 4P Bonus double this effect)))
Improved Lightning Shield

and when Shaman have surplus Lightning Shield charge, this spell can be cast to consume all surplus Lightning Shield charge:

Earth Shock (deal additional damage of all consumed surplus Lightning Shield charge (Fulmination); debuff target with )

Hearthstone: Earth Shock

The mountain formations on Earth Shock's icon are exact same peaks shown on the ripped, ominous flag on Wacraft 3's starting screen.
