Today, the WoW beta test server was updated, but there were no changes to the Shaman class. Since patch 11.0, while the hero talents have brought new skills to Shamans, our core talents still use the configuration from 10.0, resulting in little change in playstyle for both Elemental and Enhancement Shamans.
To be honest, the hero talent trees are only labeled as “NEW,” but the overall talent framework cannot be called a “REWORK.”
This has its pros and cons; the advantage is that gameplay remains largely unchanged, making it easy to pick up. However, on the other hand, I did not expect that in a completely new expansion, Shamans would not undergo a comprehensive overhaul.
Perhaps they are on the path to a rework?

That’s what I’m thinking too, seeing as hunters just got their rework released yesterday I can assume the shaman one will be even deeper. The devs are moderating these forums, which means they need to read every suggestion and frustration shaman players have had to deal with. So I’ll take another opportunity to say 2h transmog pls.
2h Enhancement dream will become reality, people who have a problem with this just have low testosterone. (and skinny arms and belly fat)
I wouldnt be so sure of a rework. 10 weeks until release. Not nearly enough time to test everything. Itll be like Shadow in BFA where they say “sorry guys we ran out of time. We’ll get you for 8.1” just for their rework to be bandaids and lead to Shadow needing a complete rework again in SLands beta when they had to be nerfed into the ground and felt horrific in 8.3
Insults to people you know nothing about simply because they disagree with you? Try to show at least a little class.
i had read the devs blue post (June 6th), they probably will only change a little bit (class tuning)
