Enhancement Shaman?

[LegacyCuban]

Just wanted to ask the 19 twink community a few questions. The first being are enhancement shamans viable? maybe as an FC or something but can they do anything or are they sitting ducks? The second one is, what gear should I be using? I found a guide but it was posted a LONG time ago so just wanted to know what i should be using the only mail heirlooms I have right now are Prized Beastmaster's Mantle - Item - World of Warcraft and im working on getting the Stained Shadowcraft Tunic - Item - World of Warcraft but sitll dont realy know what to do :} but anyways my last question is. Do any guilds or just twinks in general ever do wargames such as arenas etc etc?
Thanks in advanced.

enhance shams use pretty much same gear as a rogue/hunter. they were really good in WOTLK, but CATA killed that

time on target is your biggest issue cause you will get kited by mages/hunters with ease, so your roll is staying with a group.

right now, imo...ele-spec is better. ele vs enh = one dead enh

Enhancement Shamans are like Rogues on roids; the damage they can put out is pretty impressive. When with a group of other players you should do fine and when you're with healers; you're an unstoppable train. Also, Enhancement is definitely not a good choice of a spec for FCing, despite having a one second Ghost Wolf cast, you really don't have the useful spells that Elemental or Restoration would provide, ie; Thunderstorm, Earthshield, etc.

A perfect example of a BIS Enhancement Shaman gear wise would be Rvrstar, check out his armory; Rvrstár @ Drenden - Game Guide - World of Warcraft

You don't want to use the Stained Shadowcraft BOA gear as it gives an excessive amount of hit rating that you don't need, you would benefit more from using the Champion's BOA gear for the crit. All you need is 7HR for spell cap and you're solid. I would use the Stained Shadowcraft BOA Helm and Ello's Ring to reach that cap as well.

And I'm not sure if you're US or EU but I can confirm that arenas happen occasionally for US.

Enhancement:

• Stormstrike now does 150% weapon damage, down from 225%.
• Lava Lash: You charge your off-hand weapon with lava, instantly dealing 130% (down from 260%) of that weapon's damage to an enemy target and spreading your Flame Shock from the target to up to four enemies within 12 yards. Damage is increased by 40% if your off-hand weapon is enchanted with Flametongue.

on the bright side u will get instant ghost wolf form. so that's kinda cute
