Why are you hard casting incinerate against something thats not CC’d and closing distance on you? Did you forget youre not playing a mage and think it was frostbolt? What pet are you using? Why are you trying to PvE buttonmash?
Nerfing shamans in tradition. 'Nuff said.
maybe try seduce?
ive went against locks using seduce and theyve gotten off plenty of spells.
i dont know though, that would require USING THE ABILITIES OF YOUR CLASS.
you arent making any sense right now, what else is a warlock suppose to do? hope our instant cast dots somehow instantly kill the shaman while they inevitably catch up with frost shock? to do anything as lock atm requires hardcasting past their dots, unless u are playing as a metamorphosis spaming searing pain
grounding totem.
wand the totem.
by the time we do that 2 second process the shaman will be caught up globaling the warlock. (not to mention the wand range is within the frost shock range lmao)
lol you are funny.
ahh well . be perpetually a victim then if you cant figure out how to cc as a lock .
i honestly dont care cause youre probably an ez kill.
i care about the locks who figure it out and nuke me with a big fat chaos bolt for almost all of my health even with way of earth active.
but whatever . play poorly and dont figure it out .
gl. youll need it.

The good warlocks I encountered used seduce and prepped a burst package while I sat their staring into those…deep…hatefilled eyes…
just means u arent using your grounding totem effectively.
Just means the tell the demon to break it before casting seduce…
It’s literally the only Defensive CD Shamans have aside from Decoy, we know how to use it.
no. im using it just fine.
heres a hint.
seduce has no cooldown.
grounding totem only eats 1 seduce cast.
try using it again right after the totem eats the first.
youre welcome.
yeah no. theres so many nuances u are conveniently avoiding here. also what does any of this have to do with kiting warlock? the second u get out of seduce u can 1 shot the succubus now we are down a pet with less then 2k hp, now the warlock is down a pet. this will all change once death coil becomes avalible anyways.
lol seduce / bolt/ fear lock / kill.
if they get out of your fear chain before you kill them and are close enough to kill you , oh well.
honestly i cant play for you.
youll have to figure out the rest.
theres all sorts of counters lock has as evidenced by like EVERY DUEL TOURNEY EVER in classic era setting.
figure it out.
I personally think it’s falling short of bringing non-resto Shaman into a realistic level of balance.
Shield Mastery is too good at 8%/block with 0 IGCD.
Spirit of Alpha is universally better than salv in every avenue.
Lava Lash not requiring Flametongue is a mistake.
Shamanistic Rage is wildly overpowered and there’s no Paladin equivalent.
Spell Batching on NS+EM+Trinket CL+ES needs to be removed. 4 100% crits is busted.
New Lightning Shield rune is slated to single handedly carry all AoE tanking, period.
Fire Nova doesn’t have a realistic cost occurrence for massive ranged threat from safety.
Loyal Beta shouldn’t exist period - why are you getting a dps buff from support runes?
Dual Wield spec is way too good. 10% hit? 50% offhand damage? that’s 15 talent points worth of budgeting even if we don’t acknowledge the Stormstrike benefit. 100% permanent hit cap at all times for free is going to destroy end game class balancing.
Shaman as an “equal but opposite” to Paladin is missing the mark massively. Even if we ignore how asinine the racial changes are, and how Shaman will now have equal-but-additional weapon skilling as faction balance – giving Shamans every “best” part of Paladin racials, but giving Paladin absolutely nothing in return…
P3 is slated to be a complete failure, again. Horde is going to be 80%+ of population on every server forcing an inevitable “faction balance” or “faction imbalance cap” removal. Horde racials, mobility economy, ease of life, questing, rune locations, and everything else is just flat out better than Alliance… The two things Alliance had going was Salv+Paladin buffs, and racials - now Horde gets them for free, while Alliance is getting nothing in return. Oh yay, wild strikes on the lowest melee dps class in the game - woo. hoo.
Paladin is going to be a complete meme, and Shamans are going to be soloing ZF graveyard with magma totem and fire nova totem due to infinite mana from Shamanistic Rage. Being able to earth bind the graveyard trash on the corner and spam fire nova from safety while being unable to miss coupled with permanent massive mana regen is going to make them hilarious. Mark my words.
if a warlock is doing any of that to u it means you are letting them do it while you stand afk. just improve your ability to place grounding totems, a warlock will have no answer to gain control of the fight, wait arent u the guy that said shamans were fine? i guess i won this argument from that point alone.

i wouldnt waste your breath, hes actually is the same clown that was going around the forum gaslighting ppl that shamans werent overpowered, he doesnt have any clue about the basic nuances of pvp Especially when dealing with shamans.

no i said that way of earth was busted while being able to do very good dps with it active.
i lobbied for it to require a shield (seems they agreed) or have a flat % dmg done nerf along with a % threat increase.
i did say they are fine without using way of earth and dual rb or rb/ft (btw they are probably nerfing rb ap by 90%) .
ive seen plenty of videos of locks and other classes kiting shaman to death (with and without way of earth) and im certain it can be done.
hell ive been “kited” (more like seduce chained) by a lock when i had my grounding down at the beginning and know for certain they found a way around it.
but ya please try and disqualify my post when you cant figure out how to seduce “kite” a shaman or dont have any answer for it.
Mf huh? I was advocating for literally both of the changes to Enh that are getting made (WoE requiring a shield, RB losing +AP but gaining extra threat so it doesnt blow up Enh’s SP with MD). Both are right there in my post history.
Are you okay?
no they were talking about me and not even correct with what they were posting.
