I have some lovely followers. Thank you to everyone who messaged me after my giant whinge the other day. You’re all wonderful and kind and lovely. ❤ I do feel a bit better. I’ve taken trollmonk​’s advice and checked out the class forums on MMO Champion. The Shaman forums seem pretty good. People asking for advice are getting thoughtful responses instead of “noob”, “terrible” etc. So I think I’ll hang around there a bit more. 

I’m changing up my talents a bit for raid tonight after having read those threads. For my level 90 talent I’ve been running with Primal Elementalist and using it as a healing cooldown with Empower. But the overwhelming response on the forums suggests Elemental Blast is the way to go, so that’s what I’m going to try tonight. I tested it out in LFR yesterday and it’s a bit fiddly (especially if I’m using Clouburst) but I’m sure I’ll get used to it. At least this way it’s highly unlikely I’ll run out of mana! 

Let’s see how I go.
