A geared shaman could easily survive against the trash guards in ever look in classic. And they could global people too oh nooooooo

Iām sure you can, Everlook is a griefing hot spot. The guards are terrible there.
The only fix to that is to buff the guards.
again putting in pally solutions for shaman problems isnt the way to do things.
they are two different classes that play way different and are not the same .
and i dont see them putting in the dev time to redo those runes now anyways.
Iād like to humbly suggest that they change palliesā Guarded by the Light Rune to instead grant us mana regen plus half cost instant flash of lights. If the shaman can struggle, so can I.

Alright, free instant FoLās just to be sure.
You are failing to realise they did this with the rune changes going into p4.
Nothing to do with classes not being like other classes, all to do with balance. They failed, so now its time to try something else.
Should be easy to source a video then! Remember, the shamans back then were better at healing so im expecting them not to drop below 95%

You would be hard-pressed to know I kill people in neutral towns all the time without taking any damage. You cannot hide from me in your little goblin town. You will be hunted and you will be reintegrated.
Shaman can rune for 2 spirit wolves. Paladins should be given two squires, the Cuthbert twins. They both have non-DR HoJās on a 15 second CD.

heh.
a solution for 1 class doesnt make it right for another.
shaman play wildly different than pallies in every spec the shaman or pally has.
i dont think they have failed.
the only thing i could agree with on is having burn only spread to 3 targets instead of 5.
this would reduce the procs of instant casts while not gutting the shaman like alot of you want them to for revenge of some percieved injustice or imbalance that isnt quite as true as people want to believe or put out on the forums.
also i dont believe in taking a dump on players for what a dev decided was right .
small precise changes and not a freaking sledgehammer approach.
You gotta stop coming back to that brother, they literally are changing class runes all the time to nerf / buff said class.
Nothing to do with classes playing like other classes, all to do with balance. Just look at hunters this phase.
what shaman solutions have they made for hunters?
or mage solutions?
or warlock?
what have they copy /pasted into another class from another class?
im all ears.
What are you on about? Like really? No one is saying make them like other classes. We are saying change their runes so they are at the same power level as other classes.
A hybrid doing as much healing to themself as a resto, while pumping out as much damage as an ele, and being tankier than any melee with a shield in pvp spec. Choose 1 like every other class has to.

why take one of the most well designed classes in sod and dump on it and the players of it when it is not as broken as youre saying it is.
ive played ele for a few weeks on and off now.
let me tell you how it goes in av and brm .
in av if its not a race and alliance are turtling or there is opposition , going in vs their front line is fine (though i rarely ever get a 5 flame shock ever) .
if there is no front line?
i die in 2 seconds when i go in to put out a flame shock and im left trying to pick at people with chain lightning but often am out ranged and completely unable to do squat about it.
when in these situations i die before i even get a second heal off and earth shield does squat.
same happens in brm and most other group vs group activities.
people have gotten smart and turn and burn any ele (or any shaman for that matter) .
in short range fights ele excels .
any other fight they blow chunks.
it sucks in pve raids too.
so much so that i have switched back to enhance (which also sucks most of the time in pvp too).
but you know what. you never played a ele shaman and dont know so i dont fault you.

You are looking through jaded glasses. You have just watched a video of a shaman, walking into everlook and killing multiple people while staying at full mana / hp and tanking guards.
No other class can do this. If you are struggling as an ele shaman, thats on you.
I actually do have a shaman at 50, same server as my 60 UD rogue. I was horde first this phase. Finding groups on both those toons absolutely sucked so i switched to alliance.
I feel you, they do suck in PvE. Thats why im calling for some changes! Nerf their resto runes for ele, but give them some sustain in PvE.
You gotta stop thinking people are trying to back ele shamans into a wall, most players are just looking for a more balanced experience for everyone.
