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.

Notes
- 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.
Patch changes
- Patch 3.2.0 (2009-08-04): Redesigned. This spell no longer interrupts spell casting, but rather reduces melee attack speed by 10% for 8 seconds (exclusive with similar effects such as Thunder Clap).
