WOW - Elemental Shaman: Please Read : World of Warcraft General Discussions

Eyonix dropped this information on the forums earlier for Elemental Shaman.

Elemental shaman were told that while we'd be nerfing the damage coefficients for lightning bolt and chain lightning bolt in patch 2.3, overall they'd notice a damage increase. We know most of your tests reveal a damage decrease, however. We've been running extensive tests of our own and have identified that there is approximately a 6% nerf to elemental dps (depending on gear of course). As a result, we're going to increase lightning bolt and chain lightning bolt's coefficient so that elemental shaman gain approximately 5 to 6% of their damage back if you assume roughly 1200 spell damage.

It should break down as follows

* If you have below 1100 spell damage you will see a slight buff to your dps
* If you are between 1100 and 1200 spell damage you should see neither a decrease or increase to your dps
* If you are over 1200 spell damage you will see a slight nerf to your dps.

This change should be hotfixed onto the PTR at some point soon, and we'll be watching the situation closely.
