(I use a Dense Triangle Mace and RB4 adds like 18 damage to it, it's a nice increase)įlametongue: I personally don't like this one, but I do see where it could have its use. For a medium- to slow-speed weapon, this is a good idea since the damage is consistent and isn't too bad. Rockbiter: Good all around, but it does kinda weaken a good deal with a very fast weapon. Slow/Slow is great for PvP though when you need to kill QUICKLY.Ĭomment by ThottbotOk, I've been experimenting a bit with the weapon enhancements I have (hit 30 a little earlier, but I can comment on Windfury a little bit too), and here's what I've decided. I don't have numbers to back up my logic, but this is my opinion, which is shared with a large number of enh shammies. This has been tried and tested ever since we received DW. If you plan on using WF for dual wielding as PvE, you are better off going slow/medium. This is personal preference, but is not recommended for raiding, nor really for pvp. Initial burst dmg won't be as great as slow/slow or even slow/medium, but you will certainly proc flurry and WF more often. You can hold higher consistent damage with a slow/fast or slow/medium weapon setup.įast/fast is generally for proc-fans who like to see flurry and WF up all the time. If you choose to go slow/medium or slow/fast, you are going to do 'good' burst damage with SS/WF procs, but with the added advantage of the quicker off-hand proccing flurry and WF more often as well.

You will have high burst damage, but inconsistent damage. If you choose to go slow/slow with windfury, you are going to do more upfront burst damage opening with SS (& WF procs), but you will not proc flurry or WF as often. To shorten the explanation, I will use mainhandspeed/offhandspeed to give senarios. I'll go elemental build nor now, or stop playing shammy, bcz my will was melee shammy :(Īnd just 1 more thing- flametogue/frostband/rockbiter/windfurry weapons- and nothing to help elemental shaman (i'll be with damn frostband after going elemental)? silly Blizzard-so many patches and my favorite game is so not FinishedĮnjoy+have fun - thats why we r playing gamesĬomment by ThottbotI play an enh shaman. I will never pref offhand weap instead of good old shield (later it is 2k+armor, chanse to block,shield specelization tallent,all ur strenght help you block more dmg too) vs any (btw Many->5 or 6 from 9classes,most mobs too) physical dmg dealer in pvp/pve, if u r fighting a caster - go 2h+wf,ls,purge,1st rank of earth shock.Īnd now Enhancement build is oriented to dualwielding bcz 'new' Stormstrike atacks with BOTH weap's, Unleashed rage and Shamanistic rage beneffict from dualwielding more then from 2h or 1h+shield (simply more hits = more crits=those tallents worfk more Often). Sham's dont have tallent like rogues to remove penalty of -50%dmg for off hand, neither like warriors -25% (-chanse to hit too!) My shammy was 11/31/0 (Shamaladin 51 lvl Agamaggan) and then Blizzard brought st00pid idea about dualwielding. So.i pref wf instead of rockbiter, exept of a case when u have to tank and cant hold aggro only with last rank of earth shock+wf+stoneclaw totem - then rockbiter might help you out. It is my 1st shaman so i might miss something, please correct me see ? and at nearly 1st wf profc, there is a 1st crit too (if no earlier) so flurry pop up too,and then it is hard to stop :P

Lets think that every 5th hit is wf proc.When wf prorc 1st time in the fight it is not 20% anymore, bcz you get those 2 free hits - they r part of ur next necessary 5 hits for wf to proc, and now you need to hit 3 times to proc wf instead of 5.

Most cases armor mitigates about 30-50% which would be about 15 dps, which would make the dps bonus of WF or RB about the same as flametongue.Ĭomment by ThottbotBefore stupid patch i would say that Wf suit both 1h+shield and 2h (no matter of speed - bcz faster=more wf's,slower=more dmg when prc) better then rockbiter, why ? ( i got something that noone mentioned ). Looking at my previous example with base of 100dps, WF and RB add about 38dps. Looking at the speeds of most weapons, it seems to add about 23-24 dps. Although it is hard to calculate the dps added, flametongue (rank 6) adds 29.5 damage to the fastest, and 90.8 to the slowest. people who number crunch don't account for armor or damage mitigation. however most of the time the difference in dps is pretty close, so its your preference.įlametongue is underrated by a LOT.

In this case WF wins the long term dps fight. Ignore the ap bonus from the WF for now, thats for you to calculate after I give you this:

This is for anyone who doesn't know which weapon buff to choose So I'm not gonna go into extensive detail of any of them. many of you seem to know most of the basics of both. Comment by Thottbotedit2: (to the above poster) no WF is not nature, its just a proc
