Shaman Enhancement 1 80 Leveling Talent Build Guide 3 3 5
Shaman Enhancement 1 80 Leveling Talent Build Guide 3 3 5
Introduction
We Shamans, much like our "cousins", druids, are hybrids (as are paladins), which means that we can fill pretty much any role (off-tanking, but not tanking), but not as efficiently as an other class could. For example, Priests will still have higher heals and Mages will still leave us behind on dps meters. However, Enhancement Shamans have very good raid buffs, so that makes us very useful (and wanted) in raids.

1. Leveling Spec
The by far best (solo) leveling spec for Shaman is Enhancement. This is because its the most mana efficient tree there is (all class-specs included), while it still maintains a high damage output. In fact, an Enhancement Shaman deals the most damage compared to the mana usage (with duel wield that is). This only counts after level 40 though. So before that, you might want to try Elemental. Elemental is our casting spec. With it, we boost our Lightning Bolt, Chain Lightning, Shocks and Totems.
I will write an Elemental leveling guide later on but it will take some time, so meanwhile; browsing at the Wowhead forums brought me a guide for elemental leveling. Read CanadianSnipers Elemental Leveling Guide if you choose to level as Elemental. That guide can take you all the way to level 80.
If you want to level as Enhancement all the way, then read further. Otherwise... You can always pick this guide up from level 40 and get some gear from the Auction House(?). You can also start gathering "Enhancement gear" before youre level 40 though.

3. Abilities and Rotations
Always take weapons with the highest min/max. damage range. These are usually slow weapons.
1 - 9:
- Until you gain Earth Shock, simply spam Lightning Bolt.
- When you get Earth Shock, keep casting Lightning Bolt until your target is in melee range. Then start using Earth Shock and auto attack.
- Aways keep up Lightning Shield (it has 3 stacks).
- Enchant your weapon with Rockbiter.
- Use the best DPS weapon, be it a 1h + shield or 2H (the slow weapon part does not apply here, because we dont have Windfury yet)
Rotation: Auto attack + Earth Shock. Pull with Lightning Bolt. Always keep up Lightning Shield.
10 - 19:
- Same as above but:
- Use Flametongue instead of Rockbiter.
- You might want to use a fast weapon, so that Flametongue hits more (which does more damage than it would on a slow weapon).
Rotation: Lightning Bolt, until the mob is near you, then spam Earth Shock while auto attacking. Again, always keep up Lightning Shield.
20 - 29:
From now on, we will be using a method I like to call �Shield Twisting�. All you have to do is keep a balance between Lightning Shield and Water Shield. Water Shield gives mana, but more than what we need. Lightning Shield gives free damage when you are hit
Rotation: Lightning Bolt, until the mob is near you, then spam Earth Shock while auto attacking.
30 - 39:
- Use the Windfury weapon enchant.
- Always take a 2H weapon with a speed of 3.0 or more.
- Dont forget the Shield Twisting method.
Rotation: Pull with Lightning Bolt, then Auto attack + Earth Shock.
40 - 49:
Okay, so youve finally made it to level 40. Ready to rock? Because now we get our key abilities: Dual Wield, Stormstrike and Lava Lash. The fun can now begin!
