Mages or Shamans for wPvP

[sethlan]

Thanks for the input guys!! I have mages at 33 and shamans are 36 as we know, at level 40+ Shamans get MAIL and chain heals, and more points into Elemental tree, and seems like they start to shine, faster casting/less mana drain, later on faster heals, etc. while leveling mages I've notice they can hit hard, and AOE is crazy! but if you mess it up, you will wipe, and of course mages are pretty squishy! running back sucks as we know because GYs are so far away, sure SM is nice because its closer... and you can stay there until level 40ish.

I'm going to stick with shamans, bump them to 60 and whenever i get bored i'm going to hop on mages and level them up as well, problem solved.

All shamans will have engineering and other professions like Alch,Skin,Mining,herb, Ench. I went with Taurens, for warstomp (roundrobin)

My 5x Shaman team just hit 41 today and so far, I haven't met an instance I couldn't clear. And every Alliance I meet, (around my level) are one shotted with 5x Frost Shock. I am currently clearing SM Cath and will move on to ZF when I'm no longer getting XP from SM.

I highly recommend Shaman if you're looking to go with one class for wpvp. So simple to manage and with Ankh, you hardly ever corpse run.

I know what you mean, heals are so nice and you can even pop if dead and keep going. Sticking with shamans.

Talking of shammies did u decide them over mages? What race? Orc or Taurens ?

I'm going to stick with shamans, i went with Tauren do to warstomp, and ones i ding 60 i'm going to level mages as well-through rested XP)

mages are amazing but shamans won't be as squishy and chain ltg is pretty crazy.
