If you play a rogue 1v1 they’re impossible, also got chain harvested for 14k. tips?
Burst, get them to use defensives, LoS their burst, secure the kill. Just have to be quick on your toes.

Should i worry about killing totems? They seem to just drop endless amounts. I reopened on this sham 3 times in wpvp and he just could not die between earth shield and his self heals
Ele Sham totems suck. Unless he’s running Counterstrike, you kill that totem.
can just leave windfury?
Oh… Enhancement shamans are a different story, don’t engage lul
Only enhance shamans have windfury.
When an ele sham drops skyfury totem, he’s about to roast your eyebrows. Take cover, cc, etc

That’s his covenant ability. He did that along with popping offensive trinket, probably ascendance, windfury, the windfury leggo, etc.
That’s him going all in. Have you ever seen a rogue burst from stealth? Its the same, pressing all the stuff, except the shaman stuff is all on gcd’s so you can kinda see it coming.
He’s gonna get spirit wolves, pop ascendance, bloodlust, drop windfury… you should be running/blinding etc
gotcha, still learning how to play against shams it’s rough getting hit by chain harvest forcing me to re and he tops off. Hard to cloak it too since its instant
Do you not stop complaining about any class 1v1 as a rogue? Rogues are one of the best 1v1 classes in the game, get good.
You can kill them with Divine Toll, Convoke, Combust or WW dmg.
Yea, its just a matter of watching for those things I said… every single one of them is on the gcd, so its not instant.
If you get good at seeing them you can try to peel or cross cc etc. I get that enhance shamans can be tough, but imo they are a very solid and balanced spec. They can punish you to be sure, they can also be punished. (bloodlust is purgeable, burst is telegraphed, windfury is killable, etc)
They really do their best work with another fast-attack melee. Right now we see them with warrior (turbo) and sometimes rets/ww. They don’t pair as well with rogues, or most of the caster crew.
oh no troll found his way to my other tip asking thread
Nothing wrong with the dude trying to find answers in countering. Arena forum should be a spot that folks can talk about strat, tactics, comping and countercomping.
i meant chain harvest is an instant cast so I can’t pre-cloak outside of guessing but yeah, it seems like they have actual weaknesses
unfortunately kids or angry 40 year olds see a thread asking about how to fight another class and it’s labeled as “complaining”. I see it a lot here. Must suck to really have to take out personal passive aggressions on help threads
Right, but he’s not generally just gonna throw it away without other cooldowns committed. If he can just beat you down and then chain harvest without using his doom winds leggo proc, bloodlust, etc then he probably just flat outgears you by a lot and you were gonna have trouble winning anyway.
I mean, he might… I play in lower brackets so far as well, so we see some sketchy stuff down here.
