First, the initial pass will be with just two accounts, I will go to 3 max.

Race, Draenie
Server Type, PvE
Class, Shaman


I am looking at two Elemental Shaman or Elemental and Enhancement. If I go 3 I will probably do 2 Elemental and 1 Enhancement.

Basically the reasoning is that most every Shaman build gets into the Restoration tree anyway... I just won't be able to do instances solo with only 2 or 3 accounts but leveling should be fine.

Using Gatherer I should be able to make my main a double gathering character. One of the alts (when I finally run 3) can skin. That leaves a trade skill or two for the odd man out. (unless someone finds a way to mine on an alt). I figure I can put enchanting on the odd man for disenchanting... that would let me cover the 4 money making gathering trade skills.

So, would you do two Elementals Spec'd? The reason I lean that way is that is seems easier than trying to control a melee + ranged... let alone the fact that enhancement has no AE taunt. (unless you count chain lightning :P)

I am hoping that the 2.3 patch makes Shaman more viable long term... some of the changes do look nice.
