Talent Templates
The talent tree I've chosen as best for grinding is enhancement. You can do it in elemental if you want but I seem to have problems surviving when fighting multiple mobs there or I run out of mana and there's down time. With enhancement you have all kinds of tools that are at your disposal to help with multiple mobs, like ghost wolves, and there's not much down time with Shamanistic Rage.



Rotation Suggestion
Stormstrike, Flame Shock, Lava Lash, Maelstrom Proc or Auto Attack then repeat (don't forget to imbue your weapons with Windfury and Flametongue)

Major Glyphs to Get
