Should I be using a staff or a 1h with shield? I mostly do PvE, with some PvP on the side.
Never PvP on Rsham without a Shield. Helps a ton with survivability.
Pickup the Dagger and Shield for Resto/Ele Shaman.
“Leaf” the staff alone for resto druids.
Usually 1h + offhand/shield gives more stats than a Staff in the 1st place.
Where you have a shield u can also enchant it (likely a stamina enchant) and provides more armor in the off chance u pull agro.
For PvE it comes down to whichever the best you can get is, use it. If all youve got is a green shield and a blue dagger than that epic staff is likely the better pick. And vice versa. Other than that, weapon type doesn’t matter for PvE healers. I.e. use whatever has the best stats for you.
For PvP, as others have posted, you should always be using a 1H + shield.
