(I add an other option if you want to speak about something else that works for you. I'm always glad to read opinions.)

What do you think it's better to proc Concussion and Off-balance?

Edit: I speak about healer point of view.

    Infused backbar, charged front bar.

    Infused shock enchant will carry over and hit every 2 seconds, charged only effects the bar that is active so you would want it on front bar for max uptime of the charged trait.

    Enchants have 20% chance to proc status effect, + 20% due to destruction staves passive, + 44% from charged = 84% every 2 seconds on front bar.

    The only ones that ought to have this set up are healers. DPS needs to run double infused, with a front bar berserk.

    Sorry, I probably forget to tell I speak about a healer point of view... To proc Concussion and Off-balance. ^^

    Thanks for the numbers, always usefull!

    To this end, infused back bar lightning and front bar charged resto would give you best results.

    Why a Charged resto?

    You should be using a resto staff front bar as a healer, no? Charged should be on front bar. Cast blockade infused shock enchant on back bar. Bam 84% proc chance every 2 seconds from only the enchantment on front and 40% chance on backbar.

    Infused both bars. They changed it so weapon abilities that were cast on the backbar can proc that bar's enchant when you're on your front bar. Backbar enchants do more damage too, meaning they get higher percentage of damage in parses. Also, since a cooldown was added to off balance, you don't need charged to get off balance every 20 seconds or so.

    my main has both in his inventory based on who I get grouped with. For trials infused is generally best but for 4 man content I find charged bugs group dps if I'm the only shock wall of elements in the group
