I appreciate the more than 50,000 views this original post received. Please take a look at the new list, which is updated for Patch 2.3. Thanks.
=============
Since posting a guide to shaman healing gear, I've gotten a few requests to do similar lists for other builds. Here is a list of some of the best elemental gear for shamans in the game and the best enchant for that slot. The list of for PvE shamans who raid.

Please note that I play a resto shaman. I freely admit limited knowledge on elemental gear and appreciate the help that Errol and Ezareth have provided.

Here's an alternate ranking of Shaman items using Damage Equivalency Points (Thanks for posting this little gem Binkenstein).
http://hosted.filefront.com/Binkenstein/ <-- hosting for ShamStats (Item comparisons) and ShamSpells (talent/overall stat/rotation comparisons over fight durations).

You are lacking in understanding on many things elemental.

Remove any peice of gear with +hit on it that isn't a Tier set as the Tier sets alone max us out.

+10 spell crit is NOT the best enchant for gloves, +20 damage is

+6MP5 is the best chest enchant

Vitality is the best boot enchant(4MP5/HP5)

Best leg enchant is 35 damage 20 stamina

You are missing Monsoon Belt, (LW pattern but it sucks since it has +hit), Hurrican Boots(LW pattern), and Highborne Cloak from Kazzak.


Hope is the denial of reality, an excuse not to seize the day. No hope = No fear.

Know yourself, know your enemy, and you need not fear the results of a hundred battles.

Q u o t e:
You are lacking in understanding on many things elemental.

Remove any peice of gear with +hit on it that isn't a Tier set as the Tier sets alone max us out.

+10 spell crit is NOT the best enchant for gloves, +20 damage is

+6MP5 is the best chest enchant

Vitality is the best boot enchant(4MP5/HP5)

Best leg enchant is 35 damage 20 stamina

You are missing Monsoon Belt, (LW pattern but it sucks since it has +hit), Hurrican Boots(LW pattern), and Highborne Cloak from Kazzak.

Ezareth: Thanks for reading the post and responding (even if a bit harshly). You're generally considering one of the most knowledgeable elemental shamans so I would love to have you rank these items. As you pointed out, I'm not an elemental shaman. I have changed all the enchants that you mentioned and added the items you pointed out.

you want to socket everything with 9 damage if there's any blue/yellow combination. if there's only 1 yellow, topaz is the way to go.
