The savior of Shaman! * * * * * * Not Elemental * * Not Enhancement either * * * Maybe Resto * * * * Still needs Raid Buff for a spot * * * * * Still too squishy

[@eirsilvermoon4911]

So, there is no saving for shaman, got it :(

[@al44tec]

Yep. Figured.

[@christmasham4312]

I hate the current state of shammy

[@wiskeeamazingdancer4964]

defo savior of my resto shaman staying a main

[@chriseggroll]

Hoping for spec tree changes for ele and enhance, at least lowering the number of fire talents for enhance and reduce two point nodes. I'd love for feral lunge to be baseline or in the class tree, it's our gap closer we never take due to lack of points

[@LordHypnos4]

Both hero talents should have nodes that work with both loadouts of enhance shaman, it would suck if you like storm build but like totemic more and vice versa

[@itsButeii]

Enhance (lava lash fire elemental enjoyer). In short, we got shafted.

[@ArizonaBreakdown]

Yuuuuuup, I was stoked for Storm enjoyers when I saw Stormbringer but Totemic is rough

[@dylanfitzpatrick9423]

As a storm enjoyer I want to say, “ sucks to suck”.

[@Levelity]

The devs for shaman either don't play it or are clueless on what the enhancement shaman is lacking. I don't want to play other classes/specs.

[@tristanmattwig8541]

Very excited for totemic and stormbringer

[@Listitan]

I dont know... how they want to balance all of this new shit? :D Will be the same as always... only 1 hero talent will be viable. :`D

[@LordHypnos4]

Those boring x ability does y% more damage is how they're planning on balancing it

[@drogonr9318]

The amount of effort and creativity shown by shaman class designers is pretty bad. The devs are constantly reworking and tinkering with other specs, but it's getting to the laugh stage how much shaman are neglected by comparison. Shaman talent trees are an antiquated mess, yet are ignored - while other specs enjoy pages of patch notes. Whoever is in charge of shaman class maintenance and design needs to be replaced. It's been a D tier performance for an extended period.

[@rhombodazzle9700]

I agree with the talent trees being garbage but from both resto trees they got the fantasy part. A shaman who uses and to a point worships totems and the elements to empower himself and a team to new heights.....or a shaman who is deep into tradition calling for his ancestors for advice and answers to help him and his team in times of dire need.....I love both these concepts but honestly what would you suggest besides the basic fix the talent trees stronger CDs better talents without going into a entire rework that lets be honest is bound and inevitable with the war within can we do now to change the class without making them extremely powerful.

[@jarod466]

Totemic will be the enh raid build imo. We’re all going for ascendence procs and I like it a lot.

[@TheRabbit68]

It's kinda funny how class balance was a gigantic clusterfuck this whole expansion that they kept trying to hotfix to fix problems they'd continue to create only to add more layers on top of everything to create an even bigger clusterfuck.

[@LordHypnos4]

Compared to the lifespan of the game this xpac has been the most balanced by far. In one patch we'd get more balance changes than the entirety of other xpacs. So I'm not sure what you're talking about

[@TheRabbit68]

@@LordHypnos4 more balance changes don't make the game balanced especially for M+ players. Especially because you'd have constant reworks in patches that busted said class. And you literally can't consider balance a success this expansion after the absolute abomination that was Augmentation and what it did to the game.

[@rikku942]

The dev team behind shaman is so uninspired imo... enhance seems like discount elemental.

[@ChildofC-53]

Yaaaaay, more pointless totems.

[@ChildofC-53]

I’m not buying the game because enhance shaman are so bad. The last time they were relevant was classic. The fact that people can three shot you but shaman don’t have dual windfury is absolute asinine stuff!
