Just a couple quick things:
- You can skill up on anything light blue, or even greens that give experience. AFAIK you won't get more skillups because you are fighting something thats db/even/yellow/red. When I got my blued 2-handed hammer I skilled up on the gnolls outside splitpaw since they were green/lb to me and got plenty of skillups. Dex buffs are your friend.
- With the crazy amount of regen you get with chloro+fury/rage, and racial regen if you're a troll, you'll find yourself ending up with full HP a lot more often than full mana if you aren't CONSTANTLY canni'ing. Therefore I like to let that HP have as high a ceiling as possible on my shaman.
- Last, the thing about full DoT damage only being realized while meleeing is from an old mechanic on Live that dictated DoT's would only do something like 2/3rds of the damage if the mob is chasing you. In order to get 100% damage the mob had to be either standing still or running away from you. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe this mechanic has been implemented on p1999.
