New Shaman

[Kirlena]

Hey guys :) I'm a new refugee from blue. Starting fresh with a new iksar shaman here. Excited to get to know the server. My question is: what is some good lowbie gear for shaman? My main is a necro back on blue so I'm not too sure about shaman equipment and the like. Also can someone explain "loot n scoot" to me? Still not exactly sure what that is.

Feel free to message me on Kirlena in game, would love to meet some new people. :D

Good luck! I am still trying to farm money to buy my stuff.

Hit me up on Skar, Drakar or Assault. I have a level 14 iksar warrior holding a spare strathbone shell shield and can get you the Jade Chadokai Prod with a full set of banded to get you started.

Are you on for much longer?

[FoxxHound]

I still on~

Shaman isn't very viable for PvP. Good farm class though and you'll make a killing selling pots.

As a shaman myself I would advise against Iksar though, because they don't get slam. Now slam is pretty weak and it misses a lot. But it's a great tool to stop a gate or interrupt someone casting on you.

Most people will tell you a Shaman is a weak pvp class, not true they are hard to kill and can easily beat other classes when played right. But unlike many other classes Shaman's get there best PvP spells late in lvls, and early life is rough.

If you have any questions feel free to send me a tell on Burgerking.

a well played shaman is a monster, especially in solo pvp

[Potus]

Shaman is good class, don't get mad when you die in pvp, and you should be trying to get anything with HP and Magic Resist. ASAP buy 55HP rings, and start collecting MR gear.

there are no bad pvp classes tbh just bad players

I agree I have seen just about every class do amazingly well in PvP when played right. True there isn't alot of shamans wracking up kills, but that doesn't mean they can't do it.

That's exactly what it means actually. I will say the killshot thing is effected big time by the fact 90% of pvp happens around a zoneline, and once they zone you aren't getting credit for a dot kill. The consolation is they just increased your DOT damage by 1/3 though.

[Nirgon]

Maybe deaths zoning from dots could work for YT? Would this be acceptable to the YT obsessed crowd?

[Kergan]

I imagine if it was an easy fix they would have fixed it already.

[Kirlena]

Currently on now, yeah. :) Thanks for the information guys, I really appreciate it!

Current progress update: level 9 completely naked shaman now! Just been hunting in the FoB pit so far, the group exp bonus is insane here. Levels just fly by. Haven't been able to make any money though, can't afford my level 9 spells yet. >< Does anyone know how much stacks of bonechips here sell for?

I was being modest for the other shaman's out there, I actually have no problem getting YT. And currently I may be the highest ranked shaman on the server, and I'm only 58. It will actually be easier to get YT at 60, since most people I fight are 60's anyways.

[Kergan]

I guess the fact the #1 ranked shaman doesn't even make the top 100 kinda proves my point.

Nope that's simply attributed to the fact that I'm still 58, and haven't pvp'd yet. I will break the top 100 very soon. Then top 50, But I haven't had much time to pvp been raiding so damned much. If you factor'd out most of my deaths which were being gangbanged by 10 melee's during a raid at lvl 56 I'd already be there.
