In the change talking about Enhancement changes Enhancement shaman - Low blow Eyonix made this post:

It is currently -2/4/6% to instant cast spell cost, the change shown at blizzcon was that it also added 10/20/30% of your attack power to your +dmg/healing.
--------------------------------------------------------

Okay, right. Sorry guys. I've had quite a bit to keep track of as of late. That change is going into patch 2.3. But instead it will convert from spirit rather than attack power.

J/K =)

It's going in as described in this post.


Now on the EU listing of upcomming changes Upcoming changes for the Shaman class there was an edit:

Update:

Mental Quickness now also adds 10/20/30 % of your Spirit to spell damage / healing


I find this pretty funny.

Wait....so are you saying, that you joked about it being spirit? Or you joked about it not being spirit?


It's NOT spirit. I'll have them update their post. The change will be:

Mental Quickness now also increases spell damage and healing equal to 10/20/30% of your attack power.

Q u o t e:
Hey Eyonix! Now that you are Blue-ing Shaman posts again, can you say anything about how all theorycraft math points towards an overall Elemental DPS nerf with the coefficient change (despite the LO buff)? This being contrary to what you said about internal testing showing it as a buff.

It would be much appreciated! There are lots of great posts on that topic up already. :)


Some of the math looks good, some is far off. It really depends on the post. If my lightning bolt currently does 1076 damage for 1076 threat giving me 3.26 damage per mana, my new lightning bolt should do 1017 damage for 915.3 threat giving me 3.39 damage per mana.

If I'm threat limited, I can now do 11% more damage before generating too much threat.

If I'm mana limited, I can now do 4% more damage before running out of mana.

We're going to see how these changes pan out on the public test realms. Elemental Shaman will have plenty of time to test out the adjustments and provide their feedback.
