EnhShaman chants..Follow

#1 May 21 2009 at 2:32 PM Rating: Decent
So I reread the FAQ again, and read the wiki, and looked over my char sheet but I'm still conflicted on two things.

For LOW levels, I have a billion mats left over so I'm gonna chant armors that are nice(blues mainly)

For Enh, does Str beat Agi? I played Ret and Str was the BEST forever, but looking at distribution, and leather wearing, I'm looking at Agi closely. Both give AP, but Agi gives crit and def(which wearing leather, helps).
So I figure I can put +agi on all gear for some nice boosts.. but then the big question.

As I mentioned in other thread, I am using Bloodied Arcanite Reaper(2h BoA Axe). I tossed Lifestealing on it because 30dmg that is drained seems pretty nice(better than Fiery at least) but I am curious if anything is just better.
I have the +agi chants with no level req, but also all the other no level weapon chants.

Any advice would be great, looking to get this to 40 asap ;)

Well, Ive not played a enh shammy past the early game, but its my understanding that Agl is best for them. It offers AP and crit, which are both very important. As Enh AP also feeds into your SP, making your shocks hit harder. As for a weapon enchant for the axe, your best bet is probably either crusader or +25 agl. Crusader is a great proc for low levels, but the problem with it is its effectiveness falls way off after 60, where the +25 agl is fairly static.

Hope this helps.

Strength used to be best, but Shamans now receive pretty much the same benefit from Agility that Hunters do, so yep, Agi is where it's at. :)

I keep hearing that Crusader is very good, but you probably would need to be willing to replace the enchant later on due to the level thing, as Zarishi said. On the other hand, once you get to Northrend you should be able to pick up some very nice slow one-handers that might replace your axe, so you won't really need to worry about it past 68. Running with a weaker enchant for a few levels shouldn't hurt too much.
