Revision as of 20:57, 28 June 2011

Objectives

Report to Matoclaw at the Sanctuary of Malorne in Mount Hyjal.

Description

We should not worry about this "Druid of the Flame" for the time being. We must be concerned with the continuance of our operation.

Return to Matoclaw at the Sanctuary of Malorne. If Ragnaros was prepared for our arrival, then I anticipate that his forces will launch a counterattack soon.

Completion

What happened up there? I saw fire and... never mind, you can tell me later. We have other, more immediate matters to attend to.

Gains

You will receive:

6940 XP (or 1 65 50 at max level)
+10 reputation with Guardians of Hyjal

Notes

Back down to the southwest.

+We should not worry about this "[[Druids of the Flame|Druid of the Flame]]" for the time being. We must be concerned with the continuance of our operation.
-Since the talent applies to both melee attacks and spells, it is highly useful for both [[Shaman talents#Elemental|Elemental]] and [[Shaman talents#Restoration|Restoration]] specs. As it provides a solid bonus to critical strike chance and is a prerequisite for [[Flurry (shaman talent)|Flurry]], Thundering Strikes is a staple talent for all Enhancement builds.
+Return to Matoclaw at the Sanctuary of Malorne. If [[Ragnaros]] was prepared for our arrival, then I anticipate that his forces will launch a counterattack soon.
-Thundering Strikes is in every way superior to the [[Tidal Mastery]] talent in Restoration, since it is not limited in what it applies to. The two talents stack, however. Thundering Strikes also stacks with the bonus spell crit chance from [[Blessing of the Eternals]]. Combining all three talents provides a +14% bonus to spell crit chance.

-* A Restoration shaman with at least five points invested in the Enhancement tree should never spend points in Tidal Mastery in the restoration tree that can spent in Thundering Strikes, unless the points in Tidal Mastery are required to advance further into the tree. Even then, only the minimum number of points required to advance should be spent, with the remaining points placed in Thundering Strikes.
