On this page you’ll find a basic Shaman Leveling Build. If your looking for something more advanced, check out this Awesome Shaman Guide.
In the World of Warcraft, one of the most versatile characters is the Shaman. This article is intended to help you construct a powerful shaman leveling build so you can use the Shaman’s versatility to your advantage.
Choosing the Shaman can work to your full advantage, but you will require some time to completely get the hang of this character. The Shaman’s principal roles are healing and buffing, as well as DPS, depending on your build.
Restoration in the Shaman’s talent tree provides many important skills if you would like to heal and support other players, the Enhancement talent tree allows your character to have dual wielding abilities that increase your melee damage, while Elemental abilities focus on dealing damage from long distances.
If you are setting up your Shaman leveling spec for PvP, avoid Enhancement unless your character can take a lot of physical damage. Enhancement will not be such a good idea because it needs you to get closer, but lacks the ability to get or stay there. I strongly suggest that you go with the Restoration talent tree. Choosing this tree will definitely serve to your advantage as it will give you defensive and healing capabilities. Your Shaman can benefit much from going for the Elemental tree since it deals a considerable amount of damage, but always remember that this talent tree is vulnerable to interrupt and silence effects.
So what would be an effective build for your Shaman? It basically depends on your playing style. If you want your Shaman to stay behind and cast Chain Lightning, then I would recommend around 30/0/21. If you want your character to be more aggressive and go forward into battle, I suggest going for 0/30/21.
I would like to share with you my most effective Shaman build for PvP.
On the Elemental talent tree:
Convection 2/5, Concussion 5/5, Call of Flame 3/3, Elemental Warding 3/3, Reverberation 1/5,Elemental Focus 5/1, Elemental Fury 5/5, Call of Thunder 2/1, Unrelenting Storm 1/3, Elemental Precision, 2/3 Elemental Mastery, 1/1
Storm, Earth and Fire 3/3, Elemental Oath 2/2, Lightning Overload 3/3
On the Enhancement talent tree:
Elemental Weapons 3/3, Dual Wield Specialization 3/3, Mental Quickness 1/3 , Lava Lash 1/1, Shamanistic Rage 1/1, Feral Spirit 1/1
Then I spend the remaining points on Totemic Focus in the Restoration tree. This particular Shaman leveling build deals a considerable amount of damage through Elemental talents, the most effective talents for PvP.
