ME and another guildie shaman were bkering over this question earlier. I say Shaman would have more usefulness with a hex type spell, they said that plate armor is all a shaman needs. Diuss.
plate isnt really all that.
its more melee mitigation and thats it. shaman already have mail + shield, whh gives them the sond highest healapable mitigation vs. physal damage in the game (first being paladin...druids dontount bause they have to take off their armor to heal anyone but themselves). plate just means youre sitting at 16k in pvp gear with shield instead of 12k or so. hex would beool. make it short duration and not breakable by damage, but dispellable and on a shortishooldown, say 20-30 sonds. it would serve as a sort of deathoil only with a bit moreontrol and no life steal, as well as a mh shorterooldown. the idea behind it being the shammy now has an instant retive skill to buy a few sonds of time to get a spell off or have someone with a longer durationCome takeare of a mob. be tough to balae right tho. make it a peentage of base mana toounterbalae its usefulness and shortooldown ompared to other sh similar skills) and itould work i think.
My vote is for the Hex. Mobilitycontrol is mh more needed for shamans at the moment than more melee mitigation. Link to this Feb 13th 2008 8:07am : Logged Reply to this redbarronthesond530 Good
i like the idea of a hex for shammies, and if its as annoying as when you're in ZF then it will be insane for PVP
I was thinking if shamans had cess to plate, they might be able
to use some of those enhaement sps like shield spialization and toughness, along with some other new talents whh ireased threat generation and bome viable tanks. It seems like a lot of those sps in enhaement are there as filler and are not very useful. Link to this Feb 13th 2008 1:19pm : Logged Reply to this Ailitardif the PuissantSageUser's Journal1113 Good
