I'm HawkCorrigan or Hawk for short.
I play Elemental Shaman on a semi-hardcore level on Draenor, primarily focusing on PvE content.
Usually, you can find me lurking around the Earthshrine Discord as one of the Elemental MVPs, answering various questions,
or hanging around Simulationcraft, where I maintain Elemental Shaman modules.
I am also one of the active maintainers for

Changes to Night Fae Elemental Shaman in 9.2
There are no changes to Night Fae Elemental Shaman in 9.2.
Night Fae Elemental Shaman Covenant Abilities
Night Fae Elemental Shaman Class Ability:
Night Fae Shaman will get
: a fairly long cooldown ability that draws vitality from your enemies and shares it with your allies!
Use it on cooldown in all situations, as it does the exact same amount of total damage regardless of the number of targets.
Night Fae Conduit for
The
provides simple cooldown reduction for the covenant ability
. Using the covenant ability more often is generally good, and so this conduit is used frequently.
Elemental Shaman Conduit Guide
Night Fae Signature Ability:
All Night Fae can use
. It's both a movement speed boost that's slightly stronger than
and a blink of sorts that you can use up to 4 times in 12 seconds.
Elemental traditionally has no issue with maintaining DPS while on the move. However, outside of the Legion expansion where we had Gust of Wind, Elemental has had issues with quickly moving from Point A to Point B quickly. This helps cover that gap in our toolkit nicely!
Night Fae Exclusive Legendary for Elemental Shaman
NEW Night Fae Legendary
: Each damage tick of
(7 total) reduces the cooldown of
by 6 seconds (total of 42 seconds reduced) and increases your critical strike chance by 3% (total 21%) for 15 seconds.
The new Night Fae exclusive legendary for Elemental Shaman competes directly with one of the two niches that
fills - AoE in a coordinated M+ scenario through more frequent planned uses of
, though we expect the extra crit to tilt the balance in favor of
in this case. However, it is worth noting that
still retains its other niche - Council-Style fights - even in 9.2.
One final note, is that
is slightly devalued when using
, as the cooldown reduction will occasionally force you to hold
briefly so that you don't waste significant portions of the cooldown reduction provided by the legendary itself.
Other Legendary Interactions for Night Fae Elemental Shaman
No Shaman legendary effects have any interaction with
directly.

Best Night Fae Elemental Shaman Soulbinds
Best Night Fae Elemental Shaman Renown 80 Soulbinds
Dreamweaver is currently the strongest single target soulbind for Nightfae, with Korayn surpassing it when
can be utilized well (usually in AoE or mythic+).
The below Soulbind Calculator is valid starting at Renown 60. Conduits are socketed in order of highest priority from top to bottom in order to facilitate the greatest benefit when empowering conduit rows from renown. Please click the guide link below for more information on Conduits including Empowered Conduits.
Elemental Shaman Conduit Guide
The cheat death
supplied by Dreamweaver combined with the exceptional haste from
makes this the best default choice for a raiding soulbind. The biggest problem is that in a lot of fight in Sepulcher of The First Ones movement is pretty necessary, so utilizing the haste buff might become an issue.
If this is the case for you, you can just use Niya as an alternative.
Korayn offers the single highest DPS output if
can be utilized well in a fight. Our AoE abilities, namely
, scale exceptionally well with Critical Strike making this soulbind incredibly valuable.
The same logic applies to Raid encounters with intermittent add spawns or multiple sets of adds like Phase 2 Sylvanas.
Night Fae Elemental Shaman Rotation Changes
This page only highlights the specific use case of the class and signature abilities. To see how they fit within the context of the entire spec, we encourage you to check the other pages in the guide related to the context you are looking for:

As mentioned above,
does not change the rotation in a meaningful way.
Night Fae Elemental Shaman Talent Builds
Choosing the Night Fae Covenant doesn't affect Elemental's talents at all, as
does not interact with any of our spells!

Night Fae Elemental Shaman Gearing Differences
There are no gearing differences from choosing the Night Fae Covenant. It doesn't increase the power of any trinket, weapon or particular stat.
Elemental Shaman Gear
Night Fae Elemental Shaman Soulbinds Explained
All Night Fae players have access to the same three Soulbinds:
Niya
,
Dreamweaver
and
Korayn
. They are the NPCs with whom you complete the zone story, and they allow you to "attune" yourself to them to gain access to a tree of upgrades centered around your base toolkit (through Conduits) and Covenant abilities (through special game-wide traits).
These trees progressively unlock based on completion steps (such as finishing the campaign) and your Renown level with the Night Fae Covenant.
We've summarized the optimal traits for each Soulbind below, along with potential Conduits to use, below. Bear in mind that Finesse conduit choice will largely depend on which encounter you're progressing on, as their value changes dramatically based on the requirements they enforce. Your Endurance conduit however, will more or less always be
as the value of a significant increase in health makes the other options pale in comparison.
Niya has 4 DPS traits. One is the first trait available to you, one is at the end, and the remaining two are dead center. One can be used alongside a third Potency conduit, while the other requires instead that you give the Potency conduit up.
provides occasional small Mastery buffs that can overlap, and a large number of stacks of that buff at once when you use
.
, in the center row for Niya, deals damage to an enemy that you interrupt, and lets you pick up your third Potency conduit.
is also in the center row for Niya, and places a dot on an enemy for 6 seconds every 35 seconds (1.75 RPPM) or so. This trait is currently stronger than picking up a second Potency conduit for single-target!
is the capstone trait for Niya's tree, and empowers the first trait
so long as other Night Fae are nearby.
The best choice for single-target, one Potency conduit. For AoE, the second Potency conduit should win out.
An example tree to follow on this Soulbind is as follows:
Dreamweaver has 3 DPS traits. The first trait requires that you avoid one of your Potency conduits, the second is in the dead center of the tree, while the third is the final trait available from her.
provides a moderate Versatility buff to yourself and up to 2 allies within 8 yards of you.
gives a Haste buff for a short period of time after you use
so long as you're able to stand still to enjoy it.
provides a potent ability that is akin to a weaker version of
. This absolutely has the potential to save you from any variety of deadly mechanics.
is a single-target focused talent that provides a 3% damage increase so long as you keep hitting that same target at least once every 4 seconds.
is normally stronger than taking the Potency conduit, which means you'll usually stick with 1 Potency conduit for Dreamweaver.
An example tree to follow on this Soulbind is as follows:
Note that on the second row you can take either the 2nd Endurance conduit or the Finesse conduit depending on what the fight demands.
Korayn has 2 DPS traits, one of which is the very first trait available to you. The second requires that you give up one of your Potency conduits to obtain it.
increases the damage you deal to enemies above 75%, in essence more general version of the Marksmanship Hunter talent
, and helps any off-healing you might do on low hp targets.
gives you a large crit buff when you damage them before you damage them, though it can only proc once per enemy currently. This will likely be very effective for M+ where you'll have the option to proc it far more frequently than in a raid.
turns your
into a psuedo-
On pure single target,
falls behind the second Potency conduit. However, so long as new enemies enter the fray frequently enough to proc it more than once a minute or so it will surge ahead of the Potency conduit.
An example tree to follow on this Soulbind is as follows:
Double Legendaries for Night Fae Shaman Elemental
Patch 9.2 adds the option of using two legendaries at the same time, with the restriction that one of them is your Covenant legendary. This change empowers Night Fae Shaman Elemental even more. You can learn more about it in our Legendary Guide.

Using Ancestral Guidance with the Fae Transfusion heal is pretty bonkers in M+, it's basically a Lay on Hands for your team. If you know that significant damage is coming, like from a boss mechanic that you know is gonna hit hard, or 20 stacks of a prideful or something you should think about saving your Fae Transfusion for a few seconds to use that combo. Can really save some scary situations.
