    Enhancement Shaman Blacksmithing Question

    Got a question for any experience enhancement shaman. I'm going to max out my blacksmithing in order to get my crafted weapons.

    Should I go with Hammersmith for Drakefist Hammers, or Axesmith for Planar Edges.
    I've seen more people go with the hammers, but i've also heard that the axes are better at lower tiers since haste isn't as important early on.
    Also i'm playing an orc so i get the increased expertise if I use axes with their racial passive.

    So... BS for enha shaman isn't the best choice of profession because u will change those weapons soon and you don't get any BiS from it, maybe for start yes.

    now... as an orc go with axes - all the way.
    you should go with hammers only if you strive for stormherald - which is not optimal weapon either.
    by the time you will get to late game you won't need those haste one hand hammers.

    PVP:
    the better shaman is the more weapons he should have, so you should be getting strong two hand weap for Mages and have macro weapon switching, then you should have 2 as slow one hand weapons as you can get(even with lower dps if it is harder hitting) and one fast off hand- for 2x WF and 1x WF + 1x Frostbrand,
    next you need shield with resilience not pve one - take any if you don't have, u need it to fight against rogues and warriors.
    Lastly you should get healing weapon + healing shield to swap when you are healing.
