Enhancement - Tank Class

I feel the problem with Enh is that it’s been designed as a tank class this whole time and its missing its proper defensive CDs and shields.

Spread out crash lightning AOE make it generate threat and put it on a 7 sec CD with a talent to make the storm last 7 seconds.

Fix up those cast-able shields to provide more defense and block chance.

Add feral lunge as a baseline skill and not a talent that removes controlling effects.

Have an elemental selection in one row/ earth will tank swap for 1 min / Fire will add damage for 1 min / Water will heal you for 1 min.

Give wolves to Elemental.

As much as I hate the idea of a tank shaman, I do have to admit, it fits them.

They are the spiritual leaders of their people. They’re supposed to be the ones leading and guiding their people, especially in troubling times.

Makes sense they’d be the first to lead their people into a battle… asking the elements for help/protection, not only for themselves, but for the people they’re trying to protect

really you see fast enhancement dies in pvp and you think is want meant to be a tank class or something?..lol.

OG Blizz devs have actually flat out stated that they were toying with the idea of Enh being a tank spec. That’s why original Enh had so much threat generation and personal defensive cds built into a bunch of spells. Then somewhere along development they were like, “nevermind” and kinda made them a melee dps who could off-tank pretty decently until the complete spell rework in Cata.

Yeh I think of thrall everytime I think enhancement
