This build is more suited toward raid content, where single-target damage is more important to deal with more boss-oriented challenges.

Leveling Rotation for Enhancement Shaman
When using the slider, note that it is mostly built around the Dungeon and Open-World build above. The Raid build largely functions the same (though certain talents are not taken), and is effectively the same loadout as you will eventually take at max level on our rotation page under Storm.
