Concussion beats concentration. ^{[TCG src]}

Earth Shock is an instant cast spell that causes an amount of nature damage and reduces the target's attack speed by 10% for 8 seconds. Earth Shock (most of the time) is the second best Shock spell (in damage per mana ratio and efficiency) in the Shaman player's arsenal.

ImprovementsEdit

Talents that can improve the shock:

• Concussion increases the damage done by Earth Shock by 1/2/3/4/5%.
• Convection reduces the mana cost of Earth Shock by 2/4/6/8/10%.
• Reverberation reduces the cooldown of Earth Shock by 0.2/0.4/0.6/0.8/1 seconds.
• Elemental Focus causes you to enter a Clearcasting state after critting with Earth Shock. The Clearcasting state reduces the mana cost of your next two damage spells by 40%.
• Elemental Fury increases the Critical Strike damage bonus of Earth Shock by 10/20/30/40/50%.

NotesEdit

• Prior to patch 2.0.3, Earth Shock generated threat equal to twice its damage. The bonus threat was removed from Earth Shock, while Frost Shock gained bonus threat.
• If specced into Shamanistic Focus with Clearcasting up, shocks will cost very little.
