I support this, however for me who used to suck at lvlin to now I'm finally good or decent so sooo really I'm just broke haha 😂But for ppl with busy schedules or just busy n need to hammer down , this is a must.

[@19thomsen87]

All these shaman changes videos and no one ever mentions that ghost wolf now can be used INDOORS.. using it to move from raid mechanics and reposition in general. Giving u take the points into the improved talent so its instant. A HUGE change no one mentions

[@c2thewick]

Do they even know

[@19thomsen87]

@@c2thewick dunno if they know but real shaman enthuiasts know this. Like myself 🙈

[@EB-bl6cc]

only bad thing about that is that unless you're enhance (which almost no one will be) then you have to sac some other talent(s) as the other 2 specs to get instant ghost wolf. Still pretty awesome to know either way tho. Especially if you have to run a long distance, it might sometimes be worth using even without the cast-time talent

[@19thomsen87]

@@EB-bl6cc im a resto shaman main and im gonna take this talent 100 %. This is a must for me. Being able to quickly move out of "fire" in raids is golden.

[@aaronmcpherson1297]

Well we had it in mop n beonde because I resto heal and hopre around on my wolf on heroics....now I can do so in low level so super nice but..30%. From 40 sucuucks

[@scottwilliams2569]

The quality of the b-roll wow footage in your videos is just crazy now. Even small things like talking about Scorch being able to be casted on the move and we watch a Mage walk by casting scorch. Chef kiss

[@atorrance]

Nice comment. I paid more attention to the b-roll because of it and damn you are right. This was just a really clean and well edited video!

[@NachozDood]

You missed the best part of ele shaman witch is the removal of the CD on Chainlightning

[@Valvad0ss]

This is amazing. Good edits and info

[@TheZW11]

Bro the B-roll is so good in your videos. So much effort put in for our viewing pleasure. Cheers mate!

[@MarkieBee]

great video alot of work went into this i can tell!

[@2323zimm]

been waiting for the shaman top 10 changes glad it finally came out thanks scotty! i also think 12 would be mastery for resto but great guide

[@sunderwire]

Scotte been pumping the cata content out 🔥

[@baade6010]

what is this cinematography?! insane.

[@Milk-rn5uq]

banger working on my LFR shaman now

[@lepakage2]

Seeing Scotte be so chill with his mate reminds me of his live stream. Just a genuinely cool dude

[@atorrance]

One use of Primal Strike is it counts as a melee spell, so can be used on the TK Kaelthas fight with the legendary dagger to break people out of MCs even as an ele or resto shaman with no other melee spells.

[@asdasd-zx7sw]

he is backepdalling with spirit walker grace legendary

[@PartyProDJsFL]

Great video! Thank you! How bout some cool macros for shamans ;)

[@Dronesh_Tythun]

Let's go! Alao Ele sham can bring 16% Sp cause the totemic wrath and flametongue totem are stacking atm.

[@burtonkevin32]

With unleash you should actually have flame shock on the target before casting it. Cast unleash, cast lava burst fly it’s traveling spam flame shock and they both benefit

[@JohnDoe-yv8yn]

wow cool editing man

[@henrybustos6974]

Another banger. So much cata hype. Let’s go

[@marcuscarter7060]

Juuust so you know... Jae is prolly my go to guy for shammy info. At one point it was a meme with how many shaman he was rocking across various servers/xpacks. So you can def trust him.

[@Iggybart05]

on the elemental overload thing, i reforged all my crit to mastery and i already have 31% proc chance.

[@tooteloots]

Hey man how do I turn on spell alerts like the hot streak/FoF visuals? Didn’t they come out in cata?

[@codykeener2736]

Pretty sure if you go through your combat settings there is an option to add those visuals on the floating combat text

[@julius7949]

i dont remember much from cata pvp, im leveling a shaman and was wondering how are ele and enh shammy's in pvp such as bg and arena?

[@robertseptim3579]

Cata truly was a Shaman themed expac. I was still a plate andy back then but this time around I am definitely trying shammy

[@JustChristianBlack]

I definitely am playing ele. The slap sound from double lave burst is so satisfying . Call me strange if you want, LOL. Of course that's not the only reason, but I played ele shaman most of wotlk classic and on whitemane simultaneously and the difference in fun factor is almost night and day.

[@aaronmcpherson1297]

This is a great video i cant stop typing haha yes if they move out of h rain, politely ask party to stay in blue ring while ppl run out. Then i belive its safe to say they know more then you hence they are unkillable , if the did die , its cause they messed up....hehehe which realives mana so its really nice, so glad you dont need full group to be alive.....WAIT a Minute!!! Lol

[@aaronmcpherson1297]

I am enjoying resto enhancement healing, lvling full enhance bwhahah never tried enhance so this is nice

[@patricksandlin2700]

Shall I roll Orc or Goblin shaman?? 🤔

[@VaranVids]

I will make this quick...YES!....just look at that badass gear

[@Boneheaded0]

I’m going to run shaman/hunter all expac

[@cespinar]

If one of your top 10 changes is a spell that at least 2 of the 3 specs are better off not ever using (unleash elements) then I am not sure you are making a compelling case. At least you didn't mention earthquake I guess

[@cooldav222]

if it is going to be a repeat then we will see alot of arcane mages getting the legendary staff first to be prepared for spine of deathwing heroic

[@NurseGi]

Shamans are so fun! any group should have one.

[@mijae1146]

Shaman#1

[@Seegurken]

Help me please, i am leveling from Level 1! Got a Paladin at Level 42 Right now. But the ret specc feels very Slow and boring. Our Guild already have the Tanks. Cant Decide rogue or shaman to Level… is shaman fun or faster to Play then Paladin? I played rogue Everytime and want something different

[@6stringbravo616]

Still rocking enhancement a1day1

[@codywatson9627]

least amount of cheetos I have seen on jay's shirt to date, loved seeing him in the video!

[@shannoncory4308]

Are you kidding? I leveled my shaman back in vanilla classic. Imagine lvling a shaman back then. lol. most annoying is how half the stuff you fight seems immuned or resists to your elemental spells all the time.

[@dubstepninjaz8013]

Isnt Enhance like bottom of the barrel DPS, though ?

[@RatsoMan20]

Idk where people are getting that in dragon soul heroic I was always top except 1 fight that our ele shaman beat me on so I'd say it's the player not the class

[@markwitt82]

Picture is a little wrong. Druid is the most versatile by far. But I get your point.

[@RatsoMan20]

In dragon soul heroic my enh shaman was always top dps but every time i see people talk about enh they put it low on dps but i think im going to still play enhancement

[@TheKobasen]

When glyph of unleashed lightning is removed, every shaman is sad ever since and begging to be added again in the later expansion

I'm maining fire mage. Don't make me waiver!

If he does Warlock, he'll need someone do it for him because he's clueless about the class.

Got my boa staff for shammy prep 🧙😎

[@mattyice5696]

Before I even watch this video the answer is YES

[@GabLeGamer]

Plot twist, I'm the GM and I'm an ele/resto shaman :)

[@Feledged]

Unleash elements is not used as ele, its not worth it to replace a normal Cast for. It had its use before moving and casting LB was a thing, as its instant and you could use that during moving

[@IFNH8UALL]

Why would you not wanna use it once at the beginning to snapshot your first flame shock at 30% extra damage which is then renewed by lava burst?

[@ahmedabdelhamid601]

How did it have its uses before LB while moving, when both were introduced at the same time?

[@justinmaddox4134]

Bro Enh looks insane

[@Redouan13]

Its the most dead spec with Fury this expansion besides of the pvp meme specs. Main Enha here but realistic and informed enough to know that this is the worst expansion for Enha so far. It will be great in MoP again tho.

[@RatsoMan20]

Back in cata I raided heroic dragon soul and was always top dps except 1 fight they are not trash.

[@Redouan13]

@@RatsoMan20 Says more about your raidgroup than about the spec. There are literaly logs and data out there. If you search it up it proofs the opposite. Also the sims show them below others. Only fights where they excell are with lots of targets other than that C tier dps.

[@vexial97]

@@Redouan13ele is top dps in logs wtf you talking about

[@Redouan13]

@@vexial97 Ele isnt Enha learn to read before you respond

[@darodaredevil]

I saw Mijae video about elemental. The second i heard that orc is better for ele that troll i quit watching. Sims for that are online for 14 years. If he is spreading such foolish info on basic yet important topic either he is clueless or his script was written by bot ai. Troll -> orc for ele, period.

[@travismarshall4914]

Depends on how you define better.. The haste for troll is awesome but that orc racial for a larger fire ele snapshot is also pretty damn good

[@austinha11]

Overpowered? According to your other videos, all of these classes are going to be overpowered.

[@thebard5019]

Girl help nobody can agree on how to play any of the classes and im over here starting out trying to figure out what the FUCK is going on, so much conflicting info everywhere i look

[@inmeinehosegagamache]

Sorry but no one ever going to use Unleash Elements except maybe a healer, its just not worth it for everyone else. Because in that global cooldown you could already put out another way more powerful spell like lightning bolt or anything else

[@Scottejaye]

you're wrong but you are also entitled to your opinion

[@RatsoMan20]

Enh has a ton of gaps it can use it plenty of times everything is on cd and not enough stacks to LB

[@namenoname3284]

Most versatile? Is druid a joke to you?

[@rommulus]

So in other words don't play enhance

[@Bman24641]

As a lifetime shaman player since the launch of vanilla… I can’t support any shaman content creator who pronounces us as “Shay-men” 🤔 for SHAME sir, for shame

[@Scottejaye]

So your saying you would rather someone completely useless who pronounces something the way you want them to apposed to someone who knows what they are talking about but speaks every so slightly different to you.......i don't think i need to even say much else.

[@LurkinPT]

Yes because you don't know what you're talking about either, you reach out to people who main shamans within the community, compile the data together and then make a video and get money. You don't play shaman, your not an expert, your another KZbinr who just rehashes out information that is already known / on the Internet.

[@jordanhehehehe]

1st

[@markvanwormerjr8947]

Enhance D tier....😢

[@Redouan13]

To sum it up realisticly without streamers or so called proffesionals who spread outdated info. Elemental: Starts as godtier and stays very strong competitive dps all till the end. Best expansion for Ele so far. Resto: Middle of the pack healer basicly the same as it has been in Wrath. Relies on fights with low movement to get the best out of healing rain. Sadly most boss fights wont allow this. Has a niche role in dragonsoul where they will excell and are wanted. If you liked it so far no reason to change. Enha: My main char/spec so far. Sadly this is the worst expansion for us so far. Below average dps on single target all through the expansion. On AoE mechanics they do very well. On cleave fights they are decent. Best interupters so be prepared to be the maintarget to do this. Best kiters with instant ghost wolf, earthbind totem and unleash elements with rockbitter (wich acts like a taunt) so be prepared to do most of the kiting jobs. All buffs unique to Enha are shared/brought by better specs including bloodlust. So to summarize: Almost the worst single target dps/ S tier on AoE fights/ decent on 2/3 target fights/no unique buffs/best target for kiting & interupting duties/bit easier rotation than wrath but still not the easiest spec to master/ doesnt share gear with one of the 2 better offspecs. To be clear I never mained Enha to top dps, but in the first 2 parts of classic you had a lot of wanted buffs you brought. In wrath it was an A tier dps till the latest phase. In Cata you have neither and only Fury warrior are worse trough the whole expansion. Difference is they have an S tier Arms spec that uses the exact same gear so you can always change when needed.

[@RatsoMan20]

In ds heroic my enh was always top dps

[@Redouan13]

@@RatsoMan20 Probably because you were in an average group. No way Enha is beating any of the meta specs without consistent cleave. Rogues with the legendary daggers are doing way more dps. Arms/Ret/DK/Hunter way better than Enha. Almost any caster with Tarecgoza stomps Enha. You clearly never played Cata or you think LFR is HC DS. I think you are just waffling. You know there is a Shaman discord that puts lots of hours into researching and calculating thats where I get my info from and my own cata exp. Dont hype people up with wrong info. Enha is mediocre at best.
