The Ultimate Shaman Leveling Guide
August 21st, 2009 | by Wiiabetes Guest Blogger |Shamans decide the role they shall be taking up in the case of leveling up as well as adventuring in parties and raids by themselves. For this they have two available options. A second set of options is also provided to one of these options, which are decided only when you know fairly well the job you assign to your shaman.
Great profit is obviously brought in by the shamans to the table. A wide array of totems having multiple tasks is introduced by them. These totems are useful in slowing down an enemy, to provisionally achieve a monstrous attention and bring them some destruction, as well as to achieve statistical bonuses. They can call on fire or earth elements, cure diseases and do away with poisons. They can also break the spells cast by magical effects. Shamans can own up to four totems at a time, one extracted from each element individually. A minor mana refund can be obtained by recalling the totems by the shamans, and due to their low hit points, they can be destroyed as well. The most popular totems among the raiding and party groups are those which bring back mana as well as health with time.
Shamans can either DPS or heal, but there is a specialty in a healing shaman that is apparently absent in case of other healers. They can heal three targets consecutively with the help of a spell called the chain heal. However, the healing property of the spell decreases by 50% with each jump of the chain.
Damage dealing Shamans can unleash among the highest damage per second ratios than any of the other classes, as long as their mana holds up. They have the ability to pass some of the damage they or allies take to a nearby totem, and they also have the ability to interrupt nearby casters.
In player versus player, Shamans are very popular because of their ability to lash out huge amounts of damage in short periods of time. This gives them the ability to take down multiple targets quickly, but it takes a toll on their mana, which will quickly run out. As a healer, Shamans have the luxury of allowing their totems to take care of a few of their responsibilities – such as curing poisons. The totems affect the entire party, and are a welcomed addition to any team.
