Are they giving out free ZJ's in this thread or something?

So I dont know if it was only rumored or if you (blizzard developers) are still trying to figure out the situation with it, but i heard through the great vine, that there would be some sort of talent that would be implemented that would take a percentage of an enhance shamans Attack Power and add it to Shock Dmg. Im not sure if its true but I would hope it would be :) sitting at 1200 AP even 10% would make me happy, and i might actually stop being kicked out of arena teams by people who want elemental shamans because their dmg output is mor consistant...*sigh*...its just to bad when my WF procs elemental shaman have the nerv to say enhance needs to be nerfed...not my fault i hit like Ragnaros...but seriously...im tired of having my DMG output based on a 20% proc...some kind of dmg increase in enhance tree for shocks would be SWEET!

First of all, that player was just a complete jerk. Now that I've made myself feel better by stating the obvious, allow me to say a few other things. The effectiveness of the enhancement shaman is certainly no where near as bad as is often perceived. With that being said, however, we not only recognizes that improvements are needed, we're working many of them into patch 2.3.

An example of one helpful adjustment surrounds shamanistic rage, which will also reduces all damage taken by 30% for the duration of the ability (30 seconds), in addition to its current effect. Spirit Weapons will also reduce melee threat by a total of 30% rather than 15%. More improvements should be expected as well.

So, I made this post, we're square for another six months, right? :P

Now wait a second, isnt a Shamanistic Rage dispellable (did i make that word up), and if so that means its spell stealable. So we still have nothing vs mage, priest or other shaman... and now hunters as well due to the new arcane shot ability.

check this out, enhance is pve...not pvp, elem owns everything, i am homestyle pvp spec with 35/0/26 and in arenas my crit heals give the armor buff, and since im elem i crit with heals and dps alot, plus i can smoke any person with under 8000 hp in 3 seconds 1 per arena...not to mention i can offheal in raids and heroics, b/c of my mana efficency and crits... enhance is for those who dont want to play a rogue or warrior and just want to pve, all shammy specs cant be good at pvp...not to mention my gear isnt awesome either...lol

The grape vine.

Stupid word filter.

the devs need to GTFOff the other class forums and start listening to what shamans want... and its about goddamn time they do.

Why yes, I can purge a Paladin's bubble.

I used to love playing my shaman. I've been enhancement since release. I've recently respec'd elemental to hopefully revive my interest in shaman. So far it's only cost me gold and not done the desired effect.

I'm just tired of people asking me what spec I am then ignoring me if I say anything other than Elemental for PVP and resto for PVE.

Gotta love that bug. Its even better if it bugs on a spellsteal and you have a bubbled mage running around.

Do you guys plan to implement more positive changes in 2.4 for Shamans also?

Doh you mean to tell me that even though I deal out massive damage in my Enh spec I'm not gonna be wanted during runs after 60. I can normally out damage most classes when I do runs with people my level, a few levels lower and they can't "touch this" hehe. But damn reason I went Enh was because I love to get close up and personal on the mob or horde attacking me. Cant get the same satisfaction if I'm there healing or casting spells as an elementalist. I had enough of healing on my Pally (/sigh dont get me started on how bad they have it) and if I wanted to be a spell damage guy I would of rolled a mage or lock.

If you don't know what it is...heh....you can't afford it.

I dont need awesome gear in order to beat people like yourselves who need all the advantages to win something....

snice you would roll a mage or lock for spell dmg, why not a rogue or warrior for melee? j/w

Q u o t e:


There will be changes that benfefit the elemental and restoration shaman as well. And yes, more enchancement improvements are absolutely going into patch 2.3.
