Did anyone try a shaman freak spec yet?
I was thinking about a flag carrier setup for a premade WsG, 2 boxing.Choices i have (taking my lvl 80s into account ) could be: prot pally + resto shaman, prot pally + disc priest, disc priest + resto shaman, or prot pally + unholy dk, 2 dk even. But I really like the ghost wolf in pvp. So 2 shamans sound like more fun. Could go resto/resto, ele/resto or ele/ele (i dont play enhancement).
On the other hand, something not too obvious might be fun/challenging to play as well. So I started to play around with the talent tree. Trying to make a true hybrid, who should be 'linked' with a resto shaman. I kinda came up with this 25/20/26 freak spec..
It gives in elemental tree damage reduction, clearcasting;, mana reduction & regen.
In enhancement it gives ghost wolf, 5% crit, shock spell mana reduction and toughness (stamina + 30% slow reduction)
In resto it gives mana reduction, less push back while healing, damage reduction, 2 cooldowns, interrupt/silence reduction and healing crit.
I'm totally not sure how this would work out. The idea is to carry the flag, shock your target when off cooldown, earthbind, hex & lesser healing wave yourself all the time + grounding / stoneclaw. And the resto shaman keeps the shield & riptide on him. Once resilience is *maxed*, gem int (for a large mana pool) or haste (to reduce lesser healing wave cast time)?
Of course I'm aware that a druid can shapeshift as well and other combs might be a better option. And this spec ain't gonna kill anyone. Though it should give a bit more survivability to a shaman, and give him 1 specific task: stay alive by keeping the enemy away, as mana efficient as possible. But Im basically looking for input/feedback/ideas about a shaman freak spec, and if someone has actually tried this out?
With the risk of getting flamed and laughed at for ever and ever,
