For 5 shamen what is better the orc racial or the troll racial? I am torn between faster casts or more spell damage. Any Ideas?

orcs get the 15% resist to stun which is awesome
The troll racial is almost universally loathed as being near useless comparably. I can't recall why but I'm sure you could run a search on the wow forums via google's "site:worldofwarcraft.com troll shaman racial" syntax and get some pretty interesting results.
Depends on PvE or PvP. In my most humble opinion:
PvP: Orc > Tauren > Troll (stun resist > warstomp > berserk AGGHH)
PvE: Tauren > Orc > Troll (+Hit points > stun resist > berserk AGGHH)
Thxuuuuu
No one's mentioned the other Orc racial so far...Quote:

I wouldn't count on it as a free +spell dmg. More like a free +spell dmg -heal. In PvP that's not great.
