Hello, I would like to dive into enhancement shaman on loarderon, but before that I need to know the state of the class.
How's dps compared to other classes? Where does the class belong (tier 1, tier 2 or tier 3)
Is it wanted in raids? or is it just a buff whore ( just 1 per raid for the sake of AP buff ) ?
Also if someone could point me to an **UPDATED** guide that would be nice.
Why are you posting it in here peep ?Quote:

Best advice would be to play resto sham as it is always needed in a raid, for totems ,heroism/bloodlust and by the way is also a good heal.
There is many guides around, use ur sigh search.

If you found it on warmane forum then it is to the date, almost. Nothing really changed with enha, here or on other two LK realms. You can also google retail guides.
But other than that, enha is real fun for pvp.
enhancement shamans are a dps class for raiding or dungeons. Always have been reguardless of tbc,wotlk,cata, mop. Are they wanted in raids.... probably. Though to be truthful in wotlk ele do better dps.
The problem is enhancement is "bad" in wotlk altogether (pve wise), and when I say bad I mean they don't bring anything to justify him. Much rather have an elemental (more dps and wrath totem) or resto instead for the general shaman use (totems+bloodlust).
not to mention the play style isn't anything enticing either in pve.
you won't be a drag probably, but considering the ultra buffed raids we have now, no one will bother taking a enhance shaman since other classes can do better.
its really a shame to hear that as I don't feel like playing anything else
damn blizzard and their incapability to balance the game
Enha does better dps than ele by like 1-2k but it up to player.Quote:

For pvp ,enha is realy good. For real, they are vgood in 3s and rewarding.
not interested in pvp, just pve all the way to the end
i dont know, hearing all this bad stuff about enh really puts me off and I know that at the end of the day its player's skill that matters, but its like having handicap from start
If you realy like it that much, play it and get into raiding guild. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8roJtPMguYQuote:

If you're set on Enh and raiding in WoTLk, then you need to be prepared to give a little to, so pretty much just give up on the idea of 10m groups, it'd be easier on you and everyone else if you just found a nice quite 25m raiding guild. You might not top the charts, but you sure could hang in the middle and meet the required dps to stay in the raid.Quote:
