Best 29 Twink?Follow

1. theres two ways to do it depending no your play style, you can either buff up on str for good constant-ish/burst damage, or +agil and get more crits. or you can simply get a lot of both, with +stam. +stam is very important btw. you CAN forget about int but some int would be helpful

2. Shaman sometimes make a good FC, but the reason druids are better FC's is because when we go in ghostwolf, its purgeable/dispellable, but at 29 i guess were the best out there since druids don't have travel form. but for WSG you can either go offense or defense. we make a a pretty good FC support too because of earthbind totem and frostshock, and especially heals. in AB thats all up to your gourp, but you can defend and be in offense shaman are very flexible.

3. At 29 Melee is better

4. Since you don't reap much benefits from elemntal until later levels, it's a lot better to go enhancement spec.

5 if you do go enhancement, im going to recommend 1h with rockbiter + shield since you don't have windfury and with a shield youll have good survivability.


hope this helped :D

goodluck with it
and the stat choices your going with is good

why would 39 be awesome?

You could get all the super amazing enchants but I don't have that kind of money yet :(

So should I go 39 instead? Which one will bring me more Ownage??? :)

since enh. shaman is better for pvp in 20-29 bracket, how does this build look?

1 pt in 2H axes and maces since i read that corpsemaker is the best possible weapon before lvl 30.

an armory link to a lvl 29 enh shaman twink would help a lot.

thx.

In leveling my Shammy, I got the best gear I could from instances and leatherworkers (barbaric bracers, triprunner dungarees, etc) and some smaller enchants free from a friend of mine...I wasn't a full twink, buut I wasn't half bad. I found that a druid in kitty form talented to have the extra speed could almost keep up with me...it was close enough, at least. Druids and Shammys running together made flag carrying a breeze...and none of the shammys/priests I played against EVER purged my ghost wolf...so not everyone's that smart, lol. I had 1h mace and shield, ele spec (just for fun while leveling...again, not BG specific), and was consistently at the top of the charts for kills and heals. I do have a 19 shammy twink, so I don't know if that helped or not :P

The point being, shammys are quite fun at 29 :D

I've just started a 29 sham twink. Last night ran the flag many times in many games, quiet well for the most part. I had many a priest DoT cast on me - wasn't dispelled once!

Though I suppose it will eventually happen.

Enhancement sham gear - try something like this:

Hat: enduring cap w/ 100 hp libram
neck: I haven't decided yet - any sta/int/str combo
chest: Raptor Hunter Harness (sp?) - hemmit nessingwary jr quest, stv
pants: any boe w/ either clefthide or silver spell thread (like of the eagle) (edit , or you can go crazy and use petrospil or trollhide)
shoes: AB boots for sta and speed
cape: rep bought cape from Ghostlands or tiger strike
gloves: razzeric racing grips, panther or tiger hunter, or of the eagle
belt: AB belt or moss cinch
shoulder: watchman pauldrons
rings: both from sfk, one from baron, one from quest to kill arugal
wrist: barbaric (I think)

Weapon: Corpsemaker from rfk, Cobalt Crusher (2hmace) (I think that's what it's called) or any 1h and Marbled shield, quest in RFK. Dreamslayer or Dreamsmasher is a good one hand mace.

What's funny is that w/ all the above, when I finish my enchants (which I haven't done yet), I might only have 500 hp over my lvl 19 twink, maybe not that good! Hah.

Some tips for Shaman Bg (coming from someone who is still very much learning):

Remember to PURGE. If people come in with huge buffs from higher lvl chars, w/ potion-given buffs, etc - knock em off! Certain classes are badly hurt by purges.

Don't waste your shocks. Save them for the right moment:

Rogue - I always fire shock to DoT them - if they vanish, spam tab. They'll be back w/in a few seconds.

Any caster - earthbind to slow them - safe shock of earth to interrupt a key spell, like heal, polymorph, fear, etc.

War - I do highest dps shock or frost to slow him. I'm still working out what to do here.

That's just a few - not sure how helpful they are. GL.

Theres way few twinking guides for shammies out there and i was wondering what the policy was on spell damage at this level?

i'd had an old Resto shaman then swapped em over to enhancement for leveling, all the Int gear stayed. and i find myself running the BGs droping fire nova totems and casting various shocks without much concern for my mana pool, and score within the top 3 pretty consistently in damage dealers. (thanks are due to corpsemaker, of course)

I was thinking getting some Enchant weapon: spell power and Mystic spellthread

my question is, has anyone had any success with this, and what percent of spell damage is added to flamtongue procs if any?
