How to gear a pre boa ele shaman

Wuts

Legend
  • Can somebody send me a link to an armory or link the gear please? Just hit 20 on an ele shaman I'm going to try out.

    Horde side of course because alliance aren't meant to be shamans ;)

    Crystalline cuffs no longer available I think there are quest bracers I get. Girdle of nobility > gha moo rahs band? Sandals of sacrifice > corpse rompers? And I thought I was supposed to get garrosh's pardon and advisors ring.

    This little qtpie. Notice that this is what I last logged out with, I have a set that is capped vs 20s out of bgs (18.x%, can't remember, which is actually capped against 23s but it's my main dps set), I have a set that is capped up to 25s out of bgs (61hit altogether, which is what you see here), but I still need the WC-ring for hitcap (64hit) in BGs for the purges.

    Instead of the Angler-trinket obviously use Insignia of the Horde/Alliance.
    And instead of DPR use Deep Fathom Ring from the last WC-boss.


    Yes, I know it shows DPR but it's not actually viable in a pre-boa set because it provides less spirit than the WC-ring, it's just that I use it as a substitute because it's good to have and grants hit.

    This toon is paused btw and will not get further worked on until I feel like it.

    Edit: Also haven't gotten around getting LW to 100 so excuse my Light Armor Kits :rolleyes:

    Do you really need that much hit % though? I thought 26% was needed to hit all spells against 20s and 24s?
     
    Yes you do:

    Out of BGs, I'm already at 33.04% with 61hit, but inside of BGs the scaling makes me need more hit because I'm treated as a 24, my 61 hit only result in 24.5X% which is not capped. The 3 additional hit from the WC-ring will get me a bit over 26% (can't remember the exact number out of the top of my head).

    But if you're considered a 24 is bg's don't you need less hit % then to hit 24's? Is the spell hit required to hit someone at the same level 26%?
     
    Some spells work with only 6% hit or 15 rating however some spells like purge and lightning bolt req 26% hit.

    Dang. Does anyone have a BiS hit capped shaman armory with heirlooms then? I'm leveling a p2p draenei shaman with f2p restrictions and in order to get hit capped not only do I need the eyepatch and rune, but spirit in all slots except heirloom shoulder and chest. Would non heirlooms be better in this patch? Is the spell hit issue being repaired in 5.3?
