Caps & Requirements
Typical raid setup value — exact requirement shifts with your specific talent build.
Best Races
Enhancement gets the most from it — Blood Fury scales both attack power and spell power, and Axe Specialization gives +5 expertise if you run axes (common for Enh). Elemental and Restoration prefer Troll for Berserking haste.
Gift of the Naaru for Restoration, and Heroic Presence hands the raid +1% hit — useful from an Elemental or Enhancement shaman.
Notes
Spell power with haste; Veiled 40153 replaces Reckless where hit is needed.
The Elemental Shaman list in short
This is the Best in Slot list for the Elemental Shaman in WotLK 3.3.5a Phase 4: the strongest realistic gear from Icecrown Citadel 25, Ruby Sanctum and Trial of the Grand Crusader. It covers 17 equipment slots with the enchant, the gems and the close alternatives for every piece.
In short: the Final build uses the Royal Scepter of Terenas II in the main hand with the Bulwark of Smouldering Steel in the off hand and the Bizuri's Totem of Shattered Ice in the totem slot; its trinkets are Phylactery of the Nameless Lich and Charred Twilight Scale; the head slot is Sanctified Frost Witch's Helm and the chest is Sanctified Frost Witch's Hauberk.
Stat priority: Hit, then Spell Power, then Haste, then Critical Strike. The caps and the best races for this spec are in the panels above the notes.
