Why Your Shaman Needs the PvP Bible

PvP combat is in your Shaman’s future, even if you’ve avoided it so far. WotLK has brought a new emphasis to World of Warcraft’s World PvP. The shape of things to come is apparent in the new real time PvP battle zone called Lake Wintergrasp. There, the fact of life is always-on, real-time World PvP.

In Lake Wintergrasp you battle on the live server to earn points that allow you to buy a wide variety of special items such as the new Heirloom items. These are items that any character in their account from level 1 to 80 and beyond can take advantage of.

With Lake Wintergrasp’s high popularity, and the trend toward PvP combat in the gaming industry, there will surely be even more World PvP in the future. So let’s talk about how your Shaman is going to cope with the changes.

Playing a Shaman class character in World of Warcraft PvP can be incredibly fun because of all the things they can do in PvP combat. Whether they’re throwing down an armful of offensive and defensive totems, or slicing up the enemy using Windfury, Shaman can do it all. And they do it with style and power. But the downside of all that versatility means there’s a significant amount of learning you must do if you want to play a Shaman in PvP without dying continuously.

What makes playing a Shaman hard to learn is the same thing that makes it so cool: all those totems. The Shaman class has multiple different elemental specs with more than 30 totems combined. For example, the Grounding Totem which disrupts attacks while Earthshock interrupts them. Poison Cleanse which removes poisons as they are cast at you. Depending on which totem your Shaman uses, they can dispel attacks, keep Rogues out of combat, absorb the Warrior’s Intercept, and slow a Hunter. Think of any situation that might come up in PvP combat, and there’s a totem that’s just right for it.

This means that succeeding as a Shaman in PvP depends on your skill with using your totems. Get this right and you’ll kick tail. Get this wrong and you’ll spend most of your time waiting to be resurrected. While there’s a huge variety, a Shaman can only create so many totems so fast. If you don’t know which to cast when, and how to keep them up while using your mana efficiently, your Shaman will run out of mana and totems while the enemy is still standing. Then they’re doomed.

Do you see now why a quality Shaman PvP Guide should be at the top of your shopping list? In a quality guide, you’ll learn which totems to use against which opposing classes. You’ll learn which totems to deploy against each class and when to deploy them to keep your Shaman alive and feisty against whichever class of opponent dares to come your way. It will show you the best way to defeat opponents from each classes in one on one duels. And it will show you ways that your Shaman can best fit into each type of multiplayer team.

Since the best PvP Guide will include the hard-earned experience of veteran players, it will contain tricks of the trade that are not obvious to newer players. It will leave very little if anything out of the equation, and save you the time it would take to learn everything on your own. Why spend the next few weeks or months at the bottom of the ranking, unsure about which totem to use when, getting slaughtered by more experienced players when you can slash the length of your learning curve with a quality Shaman PvP Guide?
