Exactly, it’s the only iteration where we are able to play 2h and they decided to delete it. 2h enhance is iconic! Let us embrace our inner unbreakable and don a hand of rag and pump!

Random second idea. A rune that lets you apply two weapon enchants to a 2h weapon.

Someone on the Reddit post had the idea of WF giving a stacking buff that gave your next swing 10% more chance of proccing WF and increasing AP by 10%. I thought that was a decent idea. Allows enh to have more consistent dps. Maybe allowing stormstrike to refund mana too like crusader strike.
My 2H rune would be:
When wielding a 2-handed weapon, you gain an additional 5% crit chance to melee and spells, and your Windfury procs have a chance to proc Winfury again.
Back to the original pre-nerf Windfury for 2H Enh, full on slot machine!

The problem is if you want 2h to be viable, it needs to only apply to those kind of weapons. Simply buffing windfury still buffs it for dual wield builds.
Well yeah that idea obviously applied to using a 2h weapon.
Well ok then.
Random idea #3 (also applying to 2h), windfury could return mana. Maybe make your next shock free. Something like that. Take more of a sustainability approach.
They could have a rune that when 2handing stormstrike also casts chain lightning. Just BSing ideas.

Yeah or maelstrom weapons would be cool, throwing out big WF crits with a 2h and then shooting lightning bolts while you’re meleeing would be epic.

Literally no one asked for dual wield enhance. Buff 2h and make it the main spec

It’s a very strange decision. You’ve got dual wield shaman in tbc, wrath, Cata, mop, WoD, legion, bfa, shadowlands, DF.
There was one version of wow where 2h shaman was a real thing. And they essentially replaced it from the seasonal server of that version.

It’s an incredibly lazy fix to enhance. They would’ve known most players would want to play 2h enhance. It’s just easier for them to implement tbc enhance without having to think at all or do anything than it is for them to strengthen vanilla enhance which is a 2h user.
Classic 2H Enhance Sham was the only version of Sham that I enjoyed playing in 2004 and 2019 (classic era). Extreamly disappointing to see so many other lesser played specs get buffs and support in SoD but 2H for Enh got skipped right over for a version of TBC DW.

Coming in hot with a hot take, but there shouldn’t be any choice for enhance dps in SoD. They should ALL be 2h

you said hot take that was more of a molten take if you ask me.
Was just looking at warcraft logs for Naxx era. Whopping 16 people playing enhance with the highest dps at 398 for overall.
Id say enhance is pretty bad and can only go up, despite you guys and your fantasies.
Another example of how out of touch the SoD team is.

Nobody wants to dual wield as enhancement. If they do they have modern WoW. Vanilla enhance is all about gambling on that WF proc with a big thick 2h weapon. It’s all we want.

I was just looking at the classicwow reddit and there’s so many threads on 2h enhancement. Apparently it’s a really big deal for people.
