How depressing.

I just owned a level 58 Troll Rogue in a duel...

This makes me wonder, sometimes.

45 Shaman vs. 58 Rogue

[D3V]

Lol, not bad Mr. voll

[Grav]

I can kill both 60 mages and 60 priests as a 50 Shaman. Kind of sad.

[Slim]

Mages aren't even a contest for a shaman.

lol i didnt know you could slaughter bryan like that

[Slim]

It's easy when you kite with frost shock...they can beat pretty much any melee class by doing that, and if they run out of mana...oh, look, they can melee too.

That was nearly the worst duel he's ever fought. The only one worse was when I caught him Stealthed with an Earthbind. I trashed him fast on that one.

Slim, not all fights are easy for a Shaman. Rogues are about the toughest fight for one. Like most PvP, whoever is caught by surprise loses.

Bryan's not using the 'I Win' stunlock Rogue build. He's beaten me once or twice, and quite a few times I had to burn my 'Oh shit!' button.

Once we're out of Mana, we're toast. Yes, we can melee, but all of our utilities are GONE. We become a neutered Warrior when we're OOM, and it gets you killed.

Yes, your Mage will always have a hard time with me. Shamans have a few tools that help lock-down spellcasters. Earth shock is useful (but nothing like Kick), and our Grounding Totem has a decent cooldown.

Frost Shock = win because the effect lasts longer than the cooldown itself? >.>

[Grav]

Priests and Paladins can dispel the effect.

[WetWired]

So can frost mages. Ice Barrier for the win.

To a degree. The only class you're going to trash with it is a Warrior, as Paladins will shield and heal more than you have mana.

Mana conservation and Purging a Paladin's buffs is the way to kill a Paladin with a Shaman. The less bright ones will keep re-buffing, burning their own mana. Without their buffs, they do considerably less damage, and they have nothing really to stop you from healing yourself aside from Hammer of Justice. Improved Lesser Healing Wave for the win!

Rogues are a bit trickier, as they can Vanish (I have to keep a Flame Shock on them), they can Sprint, plus Blind is a ranged ability they can use to Bandage or close the distance while I'm Frost Shock kiting.

Shamans are not impossible to beat. Frost Shock may need a slight tweak, but you're not going to catch up to us. We can stagger Frost Shock and Earthbind Totems to still kite successfully. Even then, we're beatable.

The only non-caster class that gets SPLATTERED by Shamans are Warriors, and they need some love right now.

40 Shammy > 52 Warrior

Last night on my way to SFK I saw an alliance (lvl 20) coming out at low health. So I one hit shocked him. To my surprise and enjoyment, another came out with low health. So, I proceeded to shock him also. Well when things looked like they couldnt get any better, 1 more came out! One hit shock once more. And that ends my story.
