Elemental Shaman Talents & Best Builds
Mined from 165 distinct builds in the current top WarcraftLogs parses. The tables below show which hero talent the best Elemental players actually run on each boss and key.
Also searched as Ele Shaman.
This page ranks Elemental Shaman talent builds from top WarcraftLogs parses across raid bosses and Mythic+ dungeons. For each encounter, we list the most popular talent setups and the hero talent used. The data covers 116 parses and 101 distinct builds.
Across every raid boss and Mythic+ dungeon—from Nek'zali the Soulcoiler to Temple of Sethraliss—Farseer is the hero talent on 100% of parses. Top players consistently favor Farseer regardless of encounter type or difficulty. The table shows five builds per encounter, except The Twin Fangs where only one build appears. When comparing builds, focus on the usage percentages: they reflect what the best players actually run, not a guarantee that one setup is superior. Use the listed builds as a starting point, then adjust to your own playstyle and group needs.

Omnium Folio runes · what top players pick raid 40 players Mythic+ 40 players
The Patch 12.1 Omnium Folio has five rune rows. This is what the sampled top logs actually run in each row, read from the runes' own damage, healing and buff traces. Bold = most picked. Rows 1 and 5 are procs, so their share is inferred from the traces they leave.
| Row | Raid | Mythic+ |
|---|---|---|
| Row 1 | ||
| Row 2 | ||
| Row 3 |

The GearInsight addon shows the same table next to your own current runes and can switch every row to the recommended one in one click.
How to unlock the Omnium Folio and fill the rows
At level 80, take The Magisters' Call from the Magister's Missive at the Field Accolade Quartermasters in Silvermoon City, help Grand Magister Rommath and Magister Umbric restore the Sunstrider Omnium in Eversong Woods, and finish The Omnium Reawakens for the Folio and row 1. Then each week the Seeking Knowledge quest at the Sunstrider Omnium pays one Mote of Omnial Inquiry, one row per mote: week 2 Ritualized Arcana ×8 (Ritual Sites), week 3 Dark-Ley Coalescence ×5 (Void Incursions), week 4 Pure Primessence ×1 (delves, dungeons, raid or strongbox), week 5 an alien magic fragment from Showdown world bosses plus 3 world quests. Motes are account-wide once one character has done the quest; since 12.1 alts skip the intro. The Folio UI opens from the map and runes can be swapped freely out of combat.
