I've never played a Shaman very high until now.

My Shammy is now level 20 and I'm thinking ahead 'cause I'm really enjoying playing it.

What's a good spec for a Shaman?

I'm on a PVP server, so I want to be able to own in that area in a way that every Shaman has killed me in the past.
But I also want to be able to solo grind out the quests like I usually do.

What's a good way to go?

Thanks in advance smile

    I would suggest PMing Aldo.

    He's the resident shaman of the guild, even though he quit WoW recently, he probably knows the best speccs.

I can't help you here cause I too am having trouble on Specing my Shaman.

I had trouble specing my Pally and Preist too... Maybe being a healer is not something I should look into. The only reason I think that my Druid was easy to spec is the fact that Druid make good healers at End-game instance more then the others... Plus The fact that she is named Yoruïchï (Anime geek joke whee ) and is spec Cat Feral so I can do some great PvPing helps.

Basically you can spec any of the three trees for pvp but most effective is elemental. Enhancement is generally a pve tree but again, can be modified for either. I guess my point is I think elemental is the best pvp tree.

For PvP you want to go Resto - trust me, the shield is imba, & you just can't kill something that is constantly getting healed by something.

I myself have a ton of fun on my Enhance shammy. She's at 41 now, & duel-wielding is a kick. She has Wirt's Third Leg & Heaven's Light (got them both waaay cheap on the AH, Wirt's for about 3g (!!) & Light for about 8g). Both are slow, hit hard (regularly crit for over 300 on mobs of equal level), & Stormstrike hits like a truck.

Buuut, this may sound redundant & like it applies to all classes, you MUST get gear that compliments your spec. Enhance requires lots & lots of agility, or you're not going to get a decent crit rate, & your're going to be swinging slow & not hitting as hard & fast as you could be with crits & the Flurry proc. Just something to keep in mind when you're at 40 & bitching about hunters stealing all your mail (hehe, just kidding huntards ;3).

For dual wield is it possible to put Frostbrand on the Main hand weaponn and Flametounge on the Offhand weapon?

Okay I just made what I think is a good spec for solo grinding... What do you guys think? [X]

Yes, but the best combo is Rockbiter on your main-hand & Windfury on your off-hand. :3

Sweet! >.< So whats your thoughts on the spec I posted?

In tier 3 of Enhance, skip 2Hs, as there is no reason to have it, seriously. I myself prefer Anticipation (increased dodge) over the imp. totems, because totems = lots of mana, & my mana pool is laughable. If you're going pure Enhance to 40 to get to Duel-Wielding, your's will be too.Also, take off Imp. Ghost Wolf at 40, unless you do a lot of PvPing, or are on a PvP server & like being to escape all quick-like. xd Down the line, I'd skip the Imp. Weapon Totems, unless you're raiding & everyone loves your Windfury totem. I solo with Rockbiter/ Windfury, so it's useless to me.

Meh at Imp Reincarnation, I'd stick that into reducing healing threat or +chance to hit.

Here's a tree I made from your own (http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classes/shaman/talents.html?0000000000000000000050050000555013353110150005350000000000000
). It's semi-okay for PvP while being mainly Enhance, it's mostly for PvE. If you wanted to go more PvE, I'd look into the spare points going into Elemental.

I am on a PvP server and being a Draenei Shaman I'm a sure target for any passing horde, so yeah Imp Ghost Wolf is a Life Saver (already has been on more then one occasion). And I'd like to stick with Imp. Reincarnat. cause I tend to like to travel to places that are a good distance way from the GY's (not on purpose, I swear), plus on the rare occasion that I do run an instance I dont wanna count on a Warlock. But otherwise I shall run with what you are suggesting.
Our combined thoughts. Whacha think? (Oh I took only one from Anticipation to keep the a**-saving Imp Ghost Wolf up but felt keeping the rest was good)

Hrm, it looks the same as my tree - no Imp Ghost Wolf or Imp Reincarnation, at least.

Ack! DX I messed up with the copy and pasting of the links, sorry. sweatdrop Here we go...and I just relized what I did wrong, i edited the setup on the tab that was your link, I then copy and pasted the webaddress (which is what you already gave me) instead of copy and pasting the link that I was suppose to near the bottom of the page. sweatdrop

Hehe, I got in now. It all looks fine to me, except the Imp. Reincarnation. Trust me, the +2% to hit with melee/spells matched with Duel Wield Specialization's +6% is great! Buuut, it's your talents. ;3
