Stormstrike?

[IzZaGod 0]

Is Stormstrike worth getting as enhancement? I only played Shaman during WOTLK and it had like an 8 second cooldown and i hear vanilla has a 20 second cooldown.. Also does it proc windfury as well?

I've seen a few people saying to pass on it and get Natures Swiftness for the insta heal and that seems useful so if Stormstrike isnt really worth it would digging into the resto tree be the best option? 

I plan on both PvE and PvPing so if their are any changes in build I'd need to make between the two then please give me your knowledge!

What's your current build vs the ones you are thinking of?

Well im only lvl 24 right now so im all in enhancement. When i hit 60 im probably going to find some cookie cutter build so im just trying to find info on Stormstrike to see if its worth it but if not probably go mostly enhancement tree with 21 into resto for NS

For leveling, yeah, it's pretty nice, but very mana intensive. I found that if I tried to use Stormstrike alongside Flame Shock and Searing Totem, I'd run out of mana pretty quickly. I had to use JUST Stormstrike and nothing else, in order to be mana efficient, and I only had to drink every 10-12 mobs.

 

You can do fine without it, though. Really, the four major damage increases in the Enh tree are Thundering Strikes, Flurry, Elemental Weapons and Weapon Mastery. As long as you've got those, you'll rock some sweet melee damage.
