This guide is amazing in getting me introduced to the class and what I could expect if I wanted to roll shaman. Although, I don't believe this type of content takes away from the mystery at all. An overview of the class, and how the class plays for my style is a completely different thing. This, I want more of this kind of content :D

I didn't play shaman, and won't once Classic comes out. But, I loved this. I can't stress that enough. Guides so rarely go over each class's mechanics/gimmicks in depth(totems, stances, auras, blessings and seals, etc...). They usually get glossed over with a "and keep in mind that "x" mechanic might vary in different situations, so remember to keep that in mind." It also gives a great foundation on which a new player could build their necessary skill set and develop out of initial bad habits. You specifically brought up totem placement, for example, which will lead them into thinking about positioning in general if they think on it long enough. I look forward to seeing what you guys come up with for the other classes. I used to love thinking about this stuff back in the day(good god I'm getting old...). Though, I was a paladin so my thoughts were about how to abuse Judgement and seal effects. There was the obvious Judgement of the Crusader into Seal of Righteousness for more damage. And Ret Aura to increase threat generation(when you could actually find a group that would let you tank). But, that was something pretty much everyone did. One of the combos I remember using a lot that wasn't quite as common was Judgement of Light into Seal of the Crusader. The attack speed boost gives more chances to proc the heal effect. Great for keeping you alive just that little bit longer if you've got an AFK healer, or if you wanted to push paladin just that little bit further than most people thought it could go('cause Light knows they couldn't survive long enough already...). Hmm... good times. As always, I loved the vid and keep up the good work!

I know it might seem obvious, but it would have been a good idea to mention that dropping mana spring totem cost quite a bit of mana by itself, and it takes 20 seconds (untalented) to actually break even after dropping it. Anything less than that is a net loss.

@antonzhdanov9653 3 жыл бұрын
@@jaredmatagi971 Hm, for leveling enh shaman is the best bet and to keep rolling he needs this totem, as well as there is no real alternative with other water totem. If combats around this area will continue more than 20 seconds it totally worth it. Of mobs are just far from totem area, pool them into it. If enh is doing quite nice damage, while leveling, fights are not always this simple, so usually it takes a while and totem is totally worth it's cost.

Poison cleansing totem is also very important for pvp. I throw it down every time I fight a rogue. This is because the rogue ability blind is actually a poison effect in classic and therefore you can be cured of blind while you are CCed which always throws off the rogues since usually they use blind wait 5 sec and go to stealth but with this totem down and pulsing every 5 secs they won't be able to restealth and therefore make fights much easier, since for some reason they never bother killing it..

It ticks for ~70 every 2 seconds when you have ~900 addheal. That means it heals 2100 health to each party member in your group per minute. Problem is that it shares element with Mana Spring & Fire Resistance Totem. That is limiting its valuability quite a lot for many raid encounters

I have a few mail pieces so far that I have collected which should make for a quick upgrade!

Okay guys, this might be a little off topic, but I trust your knowledge of Shaman totems more than any PUGs or Shamans in my guild :) For a Dagger rogue who relies on BS (and hopefully critting every BS) not white hits, which totem is better? WF or GoA? I've asked to be put in groups with Druids and Hunters to get the GOA totem agility bonus, but I have shamans in the raid say, "Don't you want the 20% crit that WF offers over the agility bonus?" Ya, that guy is on crack, but are extra white swings on a dagger rogue better than the extra agility? If you guys aren't sure, could you point me in a good direction? I'd really like something with some math from Classic, not Vanilla, but I cannot seem to find anyone that has tested this, and I know you guys like charts and people who like charts, so I thought you might know. Thanks in advance :)

Can you stack totem buffs with different ranks or talent ranks?
@DefcampMelderonTV 5 жыл бұрын
No, totem effects do not stack. The highest rank totem effect should be applied

So really random question, I started a shaman alt on classic and I’m noticing my totems aren’t doing the thing where they make my group sparkle? Anyone know what I mean lol? It’s a really minor thing but it irritates me. Maybe this wasn’t added till tbc but I could have sworn it was a thing in vanilla too.

On private servers (Northdale and Lightbringer atleast) Totemic Mastery (sets range to 30) and the T1 (sets range to 30) stacks, don't know if that will work on classic though, reason is because it's either written wrong or the devs programmed it wrong, because it doesn't set the range to 30, but instead increase the range by 10. So, on the p.servers, u can get a 40yard radius (not diameter). Also, u keep saying that the totems usually won't pulse when it's placed down, from my experience on Northdale and Lightbringer, they always pulsed when i placed them, making the water cleansing totems BiS on Chromaggus. Also, most imporant thing u missed out on. "Totem Twisting" the art of placing down ur WF totem to provide the 10sec buff to ur party, then replacing it with GoA to give Agi while WF is still active. Then when WF is running out, u place it back down again and rinse and repeat.

@slebre6001 5 жыл бұрын
They have a global cooldown. Not possible far as I know.
@illbean1337 5 жыл бұрын
Not possible to drop more than 1 totem at once because of the GCD. However, u can make a sequence macro so by spamming 1 button u'll place down 4 different totem one after the other. I don't have acces to a macro like that myself, but a little googling can go a long way.

Run away and drop new totems further back. Recall didn't come in to the game until much later.

99% sure no, but stoneclaw will cuz the way it taunts is that it does an aoe attack of 0 damage with high threat, so even tho its 0 damage, its still counted as damage and removes stealth.

I never understod why shamans would be forced to get Restorative Totems, Mana Tide Totem. If casters and healers are out of mana, they are doing it wrong. You won't use that healing totem, the mana totem is a good buff to the team though, but then you have to put 6 points to boost it more and get mana tide. Same with Healing Grace, if tank loses aggro, you are just healing to much, just chill a bit and this talent is 3 wasted points.
