30% stamina, 10% Dr, 6% crit immune in one rune is literally insane in PvP FOR ANY SHAMAN SPEC

nah shams are ez kills right now
If your goal is staying alive a little longer because you like being a punching bag
If the mage has the sense to sheep you well before you’re in range, sure, that’s a trade-off. Can’t win em all.
In my experience however they more likely tend to wait until it’s their last option and you’re right on them, and since your Earth Shock is on a seperate cooldown you can maintain Frost Shock on them without having to worry about losing your kick due to the shared cooldown.
Do you have a link to that? Is it a video? Googling around for things related to 2h enhance, all I’m finding is:
- People saying they really hope that there are 2h enhancement runes
or - People claiming that they’ve heard the developers say they are focusing on dual wield enhancement and have no plans to add 2h enhancement runes, but also with no linked source
I’ve seen the video it was posted on wowhead, it was right before sod launched I belive
Ele and enhance just both need a DPS buff.
I’m a bit worried enhancement itemization might drop off in phase 3 - no mail at higher levels with str and blizz will forget.
Resto heals is also a bit mid but that might get better with more abilities etc

It was confirmed in a very small comment at launch. I think maybe at the end of a promo video.
Yeah I found it. It’s in one of those sit down and talk with the devs about sod videos.
they did say it but it was not at launch, it was after all the backlash threads about it
These runes would have to be so strong to compete with off handing rockbiters for 300+ AP next phase with mainhand windfury high flurry uptime and 10% hit on phys and spell.
But let’s be honest they likely will release dog water underwhelming runes, and people will tell enhance in last place “bro it’s just level 40 wait till 50, wait till 60”

you don’t PvP much do you 
Then you must sacrifice the ability to heal for that to be balanced. I find it funny people want hybrids to be on par with other classes that aren’t, as if versatility isn’t a massive piece of their power…
I’ll take ret dps, cc , and immunities .
I don’t need to be as strong as warriors.

As enhance I just want to be on par with other hybrids. Like ret or feral.

yep.
even on my pre bis pally that i barely know how to play i was doing way more dps than my almost fully bis enh shaman. it wasnt even close.
enh shaman needs some love but i fear with ele probably being very viable and maybe even a pumper , we wont see love enh deserves.
13:00 onwards has the teaser. Sorry I took so long to reply, had work, but he mentions about 2h Enhance Rune.
He was teasing, not serious at all
Is thundershock the one that knocks everyone back, because that would be sick

Hard agree with this. If ele & resto don’t get any hard CC to self peel melee specs off with all their new tools to engage and stick on you, the class will suck.
Hell even enhance needs something.
I mean no other melee has 0 hard cc. They all have some stun or stop.
Gouge, intim, bear bash , e grasp, kidney, hammer of justice , rep.
Shaman has, a slow that is irrelevant in this meta vs the amount of mobility in the game.
