Ive seen alot of videos of ele shamans in duels VS equaly geared players/same level. And Ive toyed around on the beta the whole day, and ele shamans survivability is just amazing. Stone Bulwark totem is pretty sick, shield keeps refreshing. Windwalk totem is just epic VS all melees.

BUT the most epic spell of em all is the Ancestral Guidance talent. The spell does sooo much healing its retarded, my shaman has only 123 k health, and I kept pulling 4-8 mobs (lvl 85-86 mobs), spamming CL and popping this totem, it kept me topped of the entire fight. I can imagine Ascendence, trinkets + aura mastery, Ancestral Guidance and Chain Lightning being a killer combo in arenas and BGs. With my current gear which is 367 ilvl the spell ticks up to 12-15 k health, and heals like a druid in treeform.


My tip for everyone wanting to do serious 5v5 with their shaman team:
Grind your way to lvl 90 as fast as possible, then jump straight into 5v5 and farm that rating. People have 0 resilience the first few weeks, and if shamans stay in the state they are now, 2000++ rating shouldnt be a problem.

I foresee a bright future for ele shaman multiboxers, no doubt about it.
