For shaman in particular, but what do yall think is a better option for faction, lore, and coolness?
Dwarf. Especially with the new Wildhammer options in Shadowlands.
neather both r bad , do drainer or troll shaman
Hard to beat a flaming double axe wielding minotaur.
Tauren all the way. They are the children of the Earthmother. And what Sinoa said.
Tauren
Tauren
Dwarf
I would go dwarf for healing and tauren otherwise.
Dwarf shamanism was made up just like draenei shamanism and blood elf paladinism; Tauren (and Trolls, and Orcs) have had shamanism as a core element of their society since the beggining.
Tauren totems are actual totems and not some stylized piece of garbage stuck in the ground.
I’d go with Tauren. Just because I like them more.
Hard to beat a purple clad, purple flaming double axe wielding minotaur.
Oh man, why even choose. Dwarf and Tauren, best of both factions.
Tauren all the way.
Tauren yes.
Wildhammer dwarf completes dwarf shaman for me
dwarf is the best race in this game ; why are you even asking this ?.
Both are their respective factions best option for the class imo so whichever faction you want for it the most. I regret making mine a draenei and panda but since I am not really interested in sham I chose races I never use.
How is it made up? It makes perfect sense to me… we are basically a part of Azeroth itself… living stone. We live inside mountains! We love our elements! Fire, the wind, the sky and the ground. We have a close connection to nature as well. Just as strong a bond to gryphon as a Orc to a wolf. They even worship their ancestors and elements. The wildhammers are true shaman!
