Since the server is still in tbc are shockadins a thing? or no one is trying it out?

5s maybe. Not viable anywhere else.

so that means the server is not truly tbc? back in retail they were capable of almost one shotting. Im guessing this server still has wotlk mechanics?

afaik, the tbc balancing patch we are playing on is the last tbc patch before wotlk, plus prepatch nerfs minus the content release.
i might be wrong though. So.. what is a shockadin?

I believe shockadins got the nerf bat when tbc hit 2.3 patch. Since the server balance is based on 2.4 that nerf is still in play.

As a Merciless geared holy paladin with 38/00/23 spec I can deal 4300 dmg in a GCD against a zero resilience target. This is with all CDs, holy shock and judgement crit.
In Shockadin gear I'd have like 350 additional SP so I assume it's possible to deal over 5k dmg in that gear.
Here a video of shockadin playing on +2600 mmr in TBC classic season 3:

Best comb for it is shockadin/rog or shockadin/mage in 2v2.
Not sure about the other arena brackets but I assume it might also work in 3s with double heal setup. Warrior/shockadin/rshami for expl.
I don't know if Warmane's TBC version is very different compared to TBC classic season 3 but I assume that shockadin is also on our server viable

Also worth to mention that in 2v2 shockadin works probably better than holy paladin. I don't think any holy paladin was able to achive Gladiator titel in 2v2.

Yes they exist on Warmane, we just keep quiet so as not to spread a plague.
I have shockadin, there are only two of us currently on Onyxia.
