Coming back for WotLK - What Shammy Build?

[mphuie]

Depends on if you plan on running the pally with em all the time or the shammies sometimes as a full group.

If the latter, probably a 51/10/0; something like the following build:

You don't want to miss Thunderstorm; it's just too much fun, and useful for both PVE (well, not really if you bring the pally in, but definitely for a 5-man shammy group) and PVP.

You get instant ghost wolf for a piddling investment in enhancement now, which is great on a pvp server as I see Coilfang is.

This build has totem of wrath - you only need that on one of your shammies now; since it no longer stacks. Getting Elemental Oath on all the shammies is probably overkill as well, but I'm not sure "how many is too many". I do have it on all my shammies and so the 5% crit buff is always up after a single cast.

It also depends on whether you want to respect later or not; you will want Lava Flows eventually, but not until you get the Lava Burst spell at level 75.

I dont see why you want 2 points in GW. I rather have full 5/5 Thundering Strikes for that 2% extra crit (over the 3/5 posted).

Also remember that only 1 of your Shammies needs to have Totem of Wrath (doesn't stack anymore) and Elemental Oath (although you may want to have more than 1 specced with EO to keep the buff up more consistently).

You will probably need to bench one of your Shammies if you're running instances, you will almost definitely need a tank, and you possibly may want to spec one partial resto. (That's what I did for running Utgarde Keep @ 70).
