I may have gotten the WoW itch, tell me what's happened in the past 2 years.

Ele shaman are about the worst pvp spec in the game at the moment. Stacking them doesn't seem to overcome their limitations. All their spells hit like wet noodles, assuming you actually get a chance to cast, but with all the aoc CC and no way to be immune to it on shaman, you usually don't get to cast at all.

Lot of people still doing melee comps, 4x DK 1 holy paladin is pretty popular. Although given the way arenas are going at the moment, lots of warriors and hunters dominating 5s I don't know of anyone doing serious arena while multiboxing.

Kruschpak called it pretty early on elemental shaman and just geared out enhancement and continued to do 5s but with limited success it seems:

IF you can forget about competitive arena at least for this season, there is a lot WoW has to offer that it didn't in the past.

- World PVP is constant, 1-85 due to cross realm zones, and at 90 due to dallies being both lucrative for gold/gear and necessary for the hardcore types. There are always people to fight. The next patch is supposed to add even more with the new faction. Certain lower level zones are full of 90s and are cross realm, so that's 24/7 action.
- Regular BG PVP is about the same as it was before, boxers can still mow through everything although you do have to deal with some annoying CC and broken classes like warriors 2 shotting things.
- LFR gives you the option to see all the raid content and queue your multiboxing team. It's not the top gear but it's still fun to do.
- The PVP stats (pvp resil and pvp power) do not carry weight on the item and are free; so you not only get the same stats for that ilvl as pve gear but bonus pvp stats.
