Schamane Enhancement guide
How to play Enhancement in WoW: Forever: what to press, which stats to chase, the talent build level by level, and the gear and dungeons to aim for.
Überblick
Enhancement is the shaman's melee spec. You hit with a big two-hander, proc Flurry on crits and use shocks and totems on top. Forever lets every shaman use two-handers without a talent, and Stormstrike opens at 30.
Good at
- Strong with a slow two-hander
- Can heal yourself between pulls
- Mail and shields for safety
- Ghost Wolf works indoors with the talent
Watch out for
- Needs a good weapon
- Mana limits how many shocks you use
- Packs are hard before Magma Totem
How to play it
In order of priority for levels 20 to 30, on one target:
- Rockbiter WeaponKeep it on your weapon until Windfury Weapon at 30.
- Searing TotemDrop it before the pull.
- Flame ShockOpen with it for extra damage over time.
- StormstrikeUse it on cooldown at 30. It makes your next Earth Shock or Lightning Bolt hit 20% harder.
- Earth ShockUse it after Stormstrike, or to interrupt.
- Lightning ShieldKeep it on. Shamanistic Focus makes it and your shocks much cheaper.
Several targets
- Fire NovaBursts at your fire totem. Drop the totem in the pack first.
- Magma TotemFrom level 26 for packs that stand on you.

Tipps
- Mental Dexterity turns your Intellect into Attack Power, so mail with Intellect is fine.
- Flurry procs from melee crits, so Thundering Strikes and crit gear make it go off more.
- Windfury Totem comes after level 30. In Forever it is a group buff and does not work with your own Windfury Weapon.
- Get Improved Ghost Wolf early for an instant cast and indoor use. It saves a lot of time.
- Weapon imbues last an hour, and you can use sharpening stones with them.
