Telling people the way to beat a shaman tank is to kite them. When they have freedoms, sprints and slows.
But you tell him the secret to killing paladins (the easiest class to kite) is to kite them.
Cant be done!!! They have their bubble up! Paladins cant be kited!
Just more critical thinking by xtra
heh i did say once decoy is down and grounding catches a spell they are toast.
the only other thing is wolves which is a 3 min cooldown and in terms of wpvp its not up every fight.
but please do try to misrepresent what i say more.
also why are you letting the tank shaman with their low damage beat on you for the 7 mins straight it takes for them to kill you (unless they proc insta casts like mad and somehow blow you up)?
oh ya . please do go on.
btw with a pally if they get on you, they can truck you in 2 globals unlike the tank shaman.
But but but
Critical thinking
but nothing.
maybe one day when you get over your shaman derangement syndrome youll be able to “critically think” about the difference in danger of kiting someone who if they get to you can kill you in 2 globals vs someone who takes mins to kill you and actually gives you time to counterplay due to damage being so low.
but you wont do that so i guess gl with being wrong.
Bro you just said the way to beat one of the hardest classes to kite is to kite them.
But cant grasp the fact the way to beat one of the easiest classes to kite is to kite them.
There is only 1 person with derangement syndrome going on.

you are indeed a moron.
decoy lasts 10 seconds.
other than that you can slow the shaman even while they are sped up from wolves.
the fact that the shaman does pitiful damage in such a tank spec or loses a crap ton of tankiness only makes the counterplay that much easier as you can survive long enough to get some slows on them after theyve burned their decoy.
the simple fact of the comparision is the pally can also go immune at the beginning to all cc and damage + has a movement speed+ also being able to 2 global you if they get to you , which most of the time they will.
you claim to be some sort of genius or something with your condesending bs attitude and cant even understand the difference or how things actually function in real scenarios .
gl being wrong dude.
Ok so because paladins have a bubble up every 5mins they cant be kited.
But the shaman with slows, grounding, decoy, freedom and sprint can be.
Just another critically thought out xtra take
20 yards range that also drs itself.
catches 1 spell and can be easily gamed .
same thing . dont know why you listed twice.
wanna know something funny? you can slow the shaman while the wolves are up and kite them if they dont do it in combination with the decoy.
also keep in mind they are lacking range on everything due to the -20 yards which makes their lb cl and lvb all 10 yards range and their earthshock is melee range and the highest range of the two other spells are 20 yards as nobody uses the st totem to give fs another 5 yards.
yes i can critically think.
can you?
Wait till he finds out the range on paladins.
Actually nvm he will still believe shamans are easier to kite than pallies.
Critical thinking
tell me honestly who you would rather kite.
person a) can go immune to all cc and damage who also can “sprint” to you while immune AND CAN 2 SHOT you.
or
person b) can also go “immune” to cc but not damage and can “sprint” to you but once their cc immune goes away in 10 seconds even the sprint will be reduced to a crawl with any slow or snare. but takes a full min to kill you .
lets just say they have effectively the same range.
i know which one i would choose.
Bro I had 250 spell power worth of consumes up and ZG trinket poped to hit you that hard. Relax.
Difference is if you don’t kite the paladin for 5 seconds you die, where as you can RP walk vs the shaman and you will make it from stables to BS in time to reach a healer.
I can tell you vs shamans alot! They definitely are hitting like wet noodles with instant lb procs.
Xtra out here scared about a spell that has a 4% uptime. Only concentrating on that 4%. Says its up every fight. 5min cd.
Yet a spell on a 3min cd with a 45 sec duration (25% uptime) is not up every fight.
This is the guy with 4000 posts crying for balance, when he cant even do the most basic math.

heh its funny watching you wriggle out of a clear point ive made by trying to insult me or my intelligence as if i would care about what someone who has such a low iq and cant even argue a point would think about me.
you are full of yourself arent you?
you should check out shaman , its 20% less damage than boomkin in most situations, but 200% the survivability. Plus if you can free cast you still get to wipe raids
Yep insane. Everyone talking about a 1 or 2 shot meta.
Tank shamans are above the meta
Boomie? Think of ‘em like a Paladin—you just gotta remember if they’ve burned their cooldowns. It’s a battleground, folks; move away from the Boomkin or aim at them, it’s not complicated. I get the feeling people aren’t processing what’s on their screens. Hyper-awareness is key; know what’s happening around you.
Scatter shot works on a Boomy even if they’ve got fap up. And Paladins? After they bubble, I leave them be, then circle back when they’re out of defensives to finish them off.
Bottom line: USE YOUR BRAIN. Boomy’s strong, but it’s not the only threat. If a hunter’s on me and I think I cant take ‘em, I’ll pop defensives and run.
Frenzy Regen would be the first thing for Blizzard to review, IMHO - I think I’m the one Druid that does not use this, because I like throwing out heals, refreshing dots instead.

You don’t need it (
Simple as that.
I promise you, if you play it well, you will always be top-kills anytime you play.
I should probably post a video on it
The game is incredibly imbalanced. If people thought Warriors were OP in original Era they haven’t experienced the full force of a boomkin in PvP yet.
I could only imagine the difference if I used consumables and had a pocket healer/dispel.
Even with strong CDs the poke is unreal. Don’t get a stun off my instant Starsurge? Dot them up. Get a stun on a starsurge? Light em up with Starfire.
I’ve got a R13 of almost every caster, I main mage.
Boomkin is disgusting lol
57% damage reduc with 3 dots critting for 700-1000 each, barely any keybinds, and my direct nukes (1-1.5s cast) crit for 4500 inside AB. AND THEY STUN. lol. Free action potion + starfall just melt the entire team with 2pc T2, darkmoon card torment and half the team is sitting ina blind while taking unhealable damage
Rolled alliance boomkin to farm shamans 
but I also have a rank 3 tauren boomkin with lokamir and cape of the brood lord just chilling doing nothing LOL
Spells barely cost mana, I can do nothing and win. SOD sucks man
3 pc ZG (bracer chest neck)
2pc T2 (belt boots)
darkmoon card + pvp trinket
rest r13 gear
lokamir, broodlord cape, dreaded mist ring and servitude.
lolll
