Some questions enhancement Shaman

Hi, i got same general questions regarding enhancement shamans on 3.3.5a

1. Damage reduction
It seems dmg reduction does not work as it should.
I got 40% dmg reduction / melee from Armor
21% from resilience
6% from ward of elements skill
makes 67% dmg reduction from melee
and 97% if shamanistic rage. and even with that rogues deal 5k crits...i mean...HOW? That should not be possible. It means that 5k is 3% of the original dmg which would be 80k dmg...that cant be.

Is it bugged? I mean even if a rogue got unbelievable 100% armor penetration there would be 60% dmg reduction left and he doesnt deal 12k dmg / hit...or?

2. dmg output. I got both wrathfull axes and still i do around 10k dmg on dummies with wf procc (not dps). Much less against players. It seems all melee classes do more on average oO And i got 4.5k attack power.

3. Totem bug? I thought the grounding totem would ward agaqinst the next incoming spell. but if i drop it whiel the other casts as example the lavabolt it still hits me and the totem is still there...i thought it would be great to ward against spells that are cast already as "emergency shield" like iceblock but in fact it looks more like it would only shield against the next spell that is started to cast which makes the totem quite useless as you can disarm it with any quick low dmg spell
Also tremor totem, as some guides say, should be dropped when i am feared or stunned...but i cant use any totems while feared / stunned -.- otherwise it would be easy

4. Gameplay:
Prob is, i feel like loosing to everyone with similiar or better gear. Ok its just BGs mostly but it seems i cant kill anything. Ele Shamans and locks deal massive dmg even though i use grounding totem and windshear a LOT. IF i get close my dmg is ok but its, even in wolf form, hard to really get some hits, therefore maelstorm doesnt stack up and i loose a lot of heals i would desperately need...
Vs Melee i got the prob that maelstorm does stack nicely but my dmg output is just disturbingly low (around1k/ hit) while DKs and Rogues deal 5k+

Edit: After some duells it looks different though...now i do win 50/50 but...well as mage i won 19/20 ^^

I already played a mage and was very good with it, only class i got problems with were locks. Now with enh. shaman it seems like every single class is a real problem. Only mages are meat. Other casters just dot me to death.

And while ele shamans cast and heal fast and a lot (haste) i just feel like being the punchingball that tries to survive as long as he can...

Got any ideas? Comments? Experiences to share? I really feel like quitting shaman though, of rp reasons, i love em. But i cant bear loosing all time. I heard they got nerved a LOT since classic and are better in cata.

Are we talking about 3.3.5 i guess..??
1. no it works correctly. You are mail geared with lowest hp from all melee classes. Rogues can crit 6k on resil plate warrior. Use shield agains them and flametongue on your mh.

2. Ok how much do you think 1h axe should do with WF? 2h axe self buffed shaman can crit for 18k with berserking buff. 10k is fairy enough for 1h axe.

3. Yea its bugged. you cant ground incomming spell but next spell. bugged tottem mechanics.

4. a) maybe you are wrong geared/ gemmed? you should stack Ap gems only mixed with resil gems or Ap/resil orange gems. in blue sockets use stam/resil gem.
b) try mix weapons imbues. Im use to use 2x wf its better. lava lash dmg sux so.. use glyps spirit wolf / wf wep/ stonecleaw totem.

c) learn on your mistakes. think about next move.

Well yes 3.3.5a

After a lot Arena, Duelling and open World PvP it looks different though. It seems like i can take much more beating then most in special with selfheal from maelstorm weapon. In 1on1 vs similar gear i can now beat most opponents without too mmuch trouble, exception of warriors against whom i just do crappy dmg while they hit hard ^^

good tact for warriors?? Use Frozen power as your advantage. Snare them with enh totem and use frost shock with frozen power to keep them in place. you can use searing or magma totem too. heal self, kite and deal damage in long range. use spirrit wolf too!! With this tactic i didnt get killed by any warriors. Try it and master it!!

I try but i often get charged ^^ But i will lean. On the plus side wars dont deal serious dmg over distance. So i try to snare em ghostwoolf to run away or feral spirit to heal up as well. Still charge is a real prob for me.

Locks seem food. I won against a lock with almost 2k more gs then me ^^ won 4/5 encounters in open world but got feared down a cliff once and died from fall dmg ^^
