Resto shamans compared to other heals

Hello everyone. Are resto shamans good at PvP compared to other heals? Is it hard to play as one? And what best 2v2 comp for resto shamans?

Yes, they're great in pvp. A lot of cd's and life-savers, with a wide range of cc's like root, capacitor totem stuns, hexing, wind sheer spell interrupts, slows with frost shock, they can run and cast lightning bolt to help out or get mana back, tons of great stuff.

I play with a feral druid and as a perk I get prowl from symbiosis. You can use it when you get out of combat in an arena so you can pop out at the last second to interrupt, hex, or spike heal, personally I don't want to play with anyone else because I just prefer having that stealth, it changes the way you play! :D

But aren't they squishi ? And about CC's, we heve only 3 . It's hex,capacitor totem and wind sheer to prevent other heal to team mate. And all those spells has huge CD, when other heals like druid's have ciklone with no CD, stun, blind. And I think shaman's lack of defencive CD to prevent damage from others. It's only my opinion.

Everything I listed makes shamans great, and theres also more. They have great cooldowns like Spirit Link, Healing Tide, Mana Tide, Healing Spring, Ascendence and whatever that other one is called from the talents, astral guidance or something? Squishy? I wouldn't say so, not if you know how to use your defensives effectively, doesn't hurt if you play a dwarf either. And I'd say roots count as a cc as well.

shamans are by far the easiest and most overpowered healer in mop, you clearly have no f*cking clue what you're talking about.


restoshamans in mop are basically just a walking healing stream totem.

Although, rshams produce some impressive single target and aoe heals with a decent amount of CC. They are very weak when you get switched upon. If the fight is messy on the behalf of the enemy, you'll manage easily yes, but if they swap you with a good CC chain, you are dead. Rshams don't have strong defenses (arena-wise). But when it comes to PvE or RBG's or just random bg's, they're gods like rdruids. The story would be so different if we'd have Shamanistic Rage, we'd be unswitchable.
