heh the op shaman tanks you are complaining about dont even run flametongue on their weapon.
whats the big deal?
The 60% Overload buff was in the game yes, but they just yesterday buffed burn to provide SP for 150% of intellect instead of 100%. Most likely to get Ele more effective in raid environments.
ya , seems they added old notes along with new.
so like half the stuff was already in the game and half was new.
still. pretty good things mostly.
Lol. The other shaman had to spell it out to you. Jeez you are the most disengineous forum troll ive ever come across. Like you might be an AI bot. Ele shamans got buffed YESTERDAY and theyre back to being ridiculously OP
Iām more scared of balance druids than shaman. Shaman seem to have fallen off as the Big ween op class, now pallies have their time to shine.
Weāre losing games because horde is running a ton of premades (as are the alliance)ā¦ all of the people who grinded max rank every week and are geared to the teeth, in premades, fully buffed and consumed with voice comms. Good luck!
It seems the matchmaking is just stupid and pairs Pug vs Premade A LOT. I think 8/10 games were horde premades so far.

honestly i havent really felt much of a difference in the past day and today.
so ya . guess we are super op now and worse than everyone again or whatever.
dont really feel it though so whatever.
guess you guys should just give up prior to the start of the bg cause there are 3 shaman on the enemy team again right?
you know. like you have all of sod other than p1.
Youāre probably one of the few people upset about the HP buff in BGs, high stamina PvP gear, and PvP damage reduction aura. Its nice when fights last longer than 3 globals. PvP in phases 2 and 3 was pretty stupid when everyone was dying in seconds.
And Iāll agree that most people crying about all these OP in classes in SOD just suck or are playing in MC/BWL gear. Thereās only 1 actually OP class in PvP right now and thatās Boomkins, their damage is just crazy even against all the geared and flasked up 12-15k HP R13ās in BGs. Nerf Boomkins and give some buffs to Mages and I donāt think there would be much to complain about in SOD PvP.

This is a fair and accurate summary
Here I am coming on here to complain about Shamen nerfs and the firs post I see is another complaint about the Shamen class. They nerfed Shamens so much alliance laughs at us in bgs now. Shamens have very little defense, we have to hard cast everything viable and even then all the gear sets now have natural defense againse the exact thing we ele shams attack with. Our only defense was our healing and they nerfted that to the point you will die healing. Ele shams our so weak I started playing other classes and only raid with it. Even in the raid we are mid. You guys literally complained about shamens so much they sneak nerf us now they donāt even tell us the nerfs anymore. On top of that all the gear in the game protects against our damage.
/lolās at you in Alliance
I am fine with the damage and stam on gear but when you add in flask buffs and all the HP gear combined with the 30% HP in Bgs and event itās dumb. People are gonna have wotlk health pools while doing tbc damage.
All the massive HP pools do is allow bad players to make poor decisions and not get punished for it because you cant do more than 10% of their HP. itās boaring. But then again your a warrior so its good for you because it allows you to over extend and not get punished.
retuning racials for all would be nice. Nerf orc stun racial, make WOF share cooldown with trinket, gnomes escape artist instant instead of cast time, dwarf being able to get out blind etc etc.
or , hear me out, they dont nerf racials but instead buff the underprefoming racialsā¦
ea being instant cast breaking and providing 5 seconds immunity.
stoneform breaking any poison effect (isnt blind a poison?) and giving all the stuff it does.
perception reworked to be a passive but reduced effect. maybe some other racial for humans?
shadow meld being a quasi vanish useable while in combat but still with the no moving thing.
like the possiblities are great and theres no need to nerf the others. just buff the alliance racials to be in line or mirroring .
What about paladins, you donāt think theyāre ridiculous right now? Since youāre alliance, you will have paladins on your team. The issue with shamans earlier in sod was they gave one faction a clear and unfair advantage. Now you have paladins doing huge damage, despite also having the strongest defenses in the game.
I think the strong build for shamans right now is 21/x/x with WoE. Its basically an ele build, except you take WoE and some other things that make you tanky. Enhance on the other hand arenāt very strong in pvp outside of roflstomping mages.
You know why they buffed the burn rune, right?
I want you to look at the AQ talent books and find me one for Ele.
Ill wait.
alli is straight up delusional. as ele i feel near useless in bgs. im ccd ridiculously easily. people for some reason cry about riptide when youre average heal is 260 plus ticks for 59. our big heal is about 1.2 to 1.5k but im usually dead before it can even be cast. damage to paladins is completely laughable. sometimes i get a good flame shock off, but thats about it.
