Can you do a test for me? Take all your gear off and add one piece of gear with only wisdom and tell me what multiplier you get at level 60.

I just wanted to point out that somebody asked DSM to take off all his clothes in a thread.

Honestly I don't think there's much of a difference between picking STA or WIS when you start if you're trying to ask yourself where you'll be at 60. If you pick WIS, you can load up on more STA gear to compensate, and if you pick STA, you can pick more WIS gear to compensate. 105/105 seems pretty good to me (I started WIS at green launch, but not based on any theorycrafting).

So I guess the operative question would be which gear is easier to get within the listed restrictions of being an endgame-non-raid-shaman? STA or WIS? Whatever the answer to that is, seems like OP would want to pick the opposite, no?

Just did my first AoE'ing WW dragon solo today, Hachaeva. While I'm more raid geared than the theorycrafting we are doing on this post, I definitely went from full mana bar to almost zero during the encounter. And I'm built for mana slightly more than HP.

Question to Loramin actually here- My Magelo shows my max HP unbuffed at 2068, yet its 2148 in-game. I checked my gear and stats over and over but can't figure out where the discrepancy is. Do you, Master of the Wiki (tm) have any idea why? Help would be appreciated!
