Anyone able to tell me how enhancement shaman is?
I'm considering leveling mine from 50 but that's the only specc I have an interest in.
I don't care if they're on the lower end of the balance spectrum, as long as they are slightly viable.

Boro (aka Hacksaw on TI) is the only real 70 Enh twink I've seen. Damagewise they seem to do a fair amount, not oneshotting but having good sustained damage and able to get some nice crits when CDs are popped; the thing that lets Enh down, and shaman overall, is the lacking CC - capacitor totem is basically the only CC (other than wind shear), and requires some skill to land properly.

Viable comps imo would be Enh/Spriest, perhaps Enh/Disc, though I can see double dps comps such as Enh/Hunter or Enh/Rogue working quite well, basically any class with good CC should work ok.

How are Resto shamans? Good with S priests as said above? And how about boomkins and 3s comps?
cheers

Resto Shaman / Shadow Priest is by far the deadliest comp at 70 in my opinion. How they can die is beyond me...

Boomkins are awesome in BGs, but in arena their burst is very rng proc based and they have little CC out of solar beam - because of this I would not consider them a very strong arena class.

As long as you have an offensive dispell, pretty much all comps are viable.
