Solo Barbarian Shaman Stat Allocation

[ArbiterBlixen]

So yeah, against prot you wouldn’t be face up trying to slow. With any level of gear a shaman would be rooting for slow attempts. Loramin would be dead before getting 3 slow attempts in. And likely wouldn’t be able to stabilize even after slow.

As far as mana vs hp, it doesn’t really have to be either or. As i mentioned it would provide you flexibility in item selection.

As an example, you use:

Runed Coldain Prayer Shawl, which yields 84 mana and 21hp

A random ec item like,

Chokidai Hide Pauldrons would yield 100hp

As you can see, even if you view mana and hp equally, Rune Coldain Prayer Shawl provides 105 points of stats. Greater than the pauldrons of just 100 points.

But with our starting stat allocation of 25sta vs 25wis the distribution looks like this:

Runed Coldain Prayer Shawl: 84mana and 96hp (chose sta)
Chokidai Hide Pauldrons: 300mana and 100hp (chose wis)

I know you said other stats matter too (Resists) and i agree, but the versatility extends to whatever stats you want. It’s just value that you can’t duplicate with a stamina selection.
