FOTM Roller, Shaman for 3.2 :P

Drøød

OG
Hey all,



I'm gonna roll a Draenei Shaman, without access to BoA Gear, because I like the fact that you can really improve your skills, and you can see huge differences with Skilled players and n00bs.

And I am looking for some armory's of 19 shamans, I am going for about 4 different sets, and I could use some help. (Healing, Melee :), Caster, Cookie Cutter)



Any chance someone can help me with some armories?



Grtz Drøød.



P.S. I already read the guides on this site, but I can use some concrete armories/gearlists.
 
Don't think A healing set would be great for a shaman : /

They're mainly good for an off healer, but even then you really woudn't need a Resto set.



But that is just how I see them at this level xD
 
The only shaman that gives my rogue troubles is Vhex of Drenden.
 
The World of Warcraft Armory



A guy on my server. Excellent healer last I played with him. He used to have 0/5/5 spec and ofc engineering googles. Guess he got his hopes high on the fishing hat.



I disagree with the statement that shaman healers are weak at this bracket. This guy can has kept me up in alot of 2v5 twink fights. Next patch they get ghostwolf and will be able to keep up better.

From my experience as a priest healer, the only real pain are rogues, since they take advantage of their interrupt abilties unlike most warriors and shamans. Infact as a priest healer the best deal for me is me+a dps versus 4-5 hunters. The hunters will usually try to take me down, but they can't interrupt me, so my DPSer can just go all out.



Shamans get their newest heal at L18, making it strong. Next patch they'll even have Ghost Wolf.

Ofc. druids got a better deal with their travelform. However, in my battlegroup the priest healers all know howto dispell, so I stopped playing that.



Shamans are excellent if not the best healers at this bracket, in my opinion.
 
Hey this is something I posted for someoen else who was looking for help on a shammy. If you need specifics on the gear sets I'm talking about you can try talking to me in-game or continue posting here.



First of all. Multiple sets for a shaman is the way to go. On my shammy I have seven sets for almost any situation. ie: FC, SP, Stats, Max Int, Melee, Arena, and Mp5. With all of these different gear choices you can come up with a mix of the gear that fits you. I personally prefer stats and mp5 over the SP build but thats completely up to you. It looks like in the new patch most shamans will be rolling with 3/5 Anscestral Knowledge, 2/2 Earth's Grasp, 2/2 Imp Ghostwolf, and 3/5 Healing Wave. This build gives you a decent mana pool, excellent kiting abilities, and a semi-quick heal. If you do find your heals coming to slow with that build, you can try using lower ranks for clutch situations.



I hope that helped out abit

Alliance Twink Shaman would for sure make a better healer than Horde imo

But I was just thinking about Horde (As what I play) But with Gift of the Narru able to be cast on players it does make a Dranei shaman healer pretty good, but I never said they were weak, they just arn't the best
 
.

My armory for glass is DPS/SP/Balance right now. Have all sets. Thats the best 'average' setup. Take it from someone who played a shaman before the patch notes :)

I can't see how shamans can be better healers at this bracket than druids. Shamans don't have the 70% ignore pushback talent, and druids also have the -0.5 sec to healing touch, and they can even choose the -30% dispelled heals talent, if instead of HT spam they prefer to throw HoTs to keep on the go. Shamans ghost wolf is considered a magic and can be dispelled, while travel form can't. And it's instant untalented. And, correct me if I'm wrong, but ghost wolf doesn't remove snares, only makes you unable to fall below 100% speed... but with enough shapeshifts you could be running 140% around 95% of the time.

Shamans on the other side got a instant slow, purge, fear removal and an interrupt. Both classes got gamebreaking abilities. I just prefer shaman healers. In my opinion they aid me more in combat than a druid.

Like as I stated before, I think Alliance would prefer a Shaman Healer because Draenei get Gift of the Narru which stacks with Spell Power and can be cast on other targets.



It seems like only Horde thinks Shamans aren't the best lol
