Bloodwinter Clan

I am wondering what are the Shaman builds.

I finally got to lvl 20 with my shaman lastnight (go me!)
And I was thinking of respeccing, but I don't have a clue what is a good path to take him.

Currently I have spent all the points in Enhancements I think.
Improving chance to block with sheild, And Critical strike chance with melee weapons
Which is ok, But I want to know what I should aim for to do even better in PVP.

Also, I know that INT and Spirit? are most important stats to a Shaman and I currently do not have any gear at all that gives a +5 to INT. Want to know if anyone Can make leather that has some +'s to stats that are most important to Shaman's for lvl 20 or so. or if you know some quests for some good shaman gear.

I'm loving my Shaman so far. Alliance players don't seem to big on the idea of attacking me.
except for some lvl 60 rogue that came up and stunned me..then Ran off in Ratchet. hehe.

Thanks for any advice ya give.
(and the flowers are annoying )

It depends what you want to do with yourself honestly.
When I go for stats I mainly aim for Stamina/Int
Then 2ndly Spirit/Agility.

I was testing a few armor configs and I found that even with a buttload of spirit I didnt regen all that much, Because blizzard implemented a 5sec rule on regen, you regen 5 secs after you cast any spell. So SPI is kinda borked.

As far as builds go, I went

11 Enhance

Ah, One of my fellow Shamans suggested I get some Mod for the game.
But I can't remember what is was called and I don't know where I would DL it at.

like a UI mod?
Any idea?

Just relax, the gear will drop. Do WC a few times and you should get a bunch. All the gear I own has +int or +stam. Stamina is more important to me than spirit.

I went a little different than Hall. Both are good templates and very viable for PvP depending on your style.

What is WC?

Wailing Caverns in Barrens

Oh, I tried going there lastnight (when I was 19 or so) and the lvl 16 Elite mobs in there are still too tough for me.

Maybe When I'm like 25 or so.

Don't solo it you noobinator... get a group and go into the instance

Now why would I want to do that?

So you'd have a chance?

I'll try it again around 25
Hopefully I can complete quests in the contested lands like yesterday.
If I can keep that up I should be at least 25 or higher by the weekend.

If Sly werre ever on I would group with him!
hehe.

I spend a good portion of time farming linen cloth and leather though.
I make pretty good money undercutting the majority of people selling linen cloth on the AH for 40s per stack.

40s is too much.

I've made at least 10G so far lol.
course I seem to spend it as fast as I get it.

Hall's shaman owns my warrior. It makes me sad IRL.

hall you think the 2h maces talent was worth it? Is there a big difference between those and staffs? I'm thinking the slowest highest dmg weapon is best for PVP because shamans are all about frontloading dmg.

I am trying a bit of tank spec -- I have to solo alot since i play late.
I will prob change at lvl 60 if i dont like in pvp.
Most my armor is set stam and intellect.
So

Enhancements
Ans knowledge 5/5
flurry 5/5
thundering stikes 5/5
Improved stone skin 2/3

It works pretty good need to be on your toes for healing in groups.
