Stat Priority
Stats are crucial attributes that influence a character's power in World of Warcraft. They determine the character's strength and overall playstyle. Stat bonuses can be found on various equipment pieces, consumables created by Alchemy, certain foods, some enchantments, and gems.
Each stat experiences diminishing returns once its equipped bonus reaches +20%. Optimizing a character's performance involves finding a balanced distribution. Here is the optimal way to balance Enhancement Shaman secondary and minor stats for Mythic+:
Secondary Stats
- Mastery
- Haste
- Critical Strike
- Versatility
Minor Stats
- Avoidance
- Leech
- Speed
Class Talents
Talents are the main element defining a character's build, significantly influencing playstyle by adding, modifying, and enhancing abilities and behaviors. They are crucial in shaping how a character functions in battle.
Class talents represent a common tree shared across all Shaman specializations. These talents provide foundational skills and enhancements essential to the Shaman class. They offer a range of abilities that lay the groundwork for a Shaman's overall capabilities. The following tree reproduces the in-game class talents disposition as a heatmap. Each color represents the usage frequency and general recommendation level of the talents:
- Most frequently used talents, highly recommended for optimal performance.
- Widely used talents offering flexibility for alternative choices or personal preference.
- Less commonly selected talents, typically chosen to fill necessary slots for advancing to the next tier.
Specialization Talents
Specialization talents provide Enhancement Shamans with unique abilities and enhancements tailored to their combat style. The following tree reproduces the in-game specialization talents disposition and shows the best talents as a heatmap:
- Most frequently used talents, highly recommended for optimal performance.
- Widely used talents offering flexibility for alternative choices or personal preference.
- Less commonly selected talents, typically chosen to fill necessary slots for advancing to the next tier.
Hero Talents
Hero talents allow deeper customization of the Enhancement Shaman class fantasy, enhancing character builds. The following trees show the Totemic and Stormbringer hero talents as a heatmap, highlighting the most effective choices:
- Most frequently used talents, highly recommended for optimal performance.
- Widely used talents offering flexibility for alternative choices or personal preference.
- Less commonly selected talents, typically chosen to fill necessary slots for advancing to the next tier.
Best In Slot Gear
Gear consists of items that directly determine a character's power level. It can be acquired from various sources: dungeons, raids, world drops, crafted through professions, obtained from PvP vendors, or chosen as rewards from the Great Vault.
Each piece of gear significantly boosts a character's overall strength and capabilities. Here are the top items for Enhancement Shamans in Mythic+, tailored for each equipment slot:
Neck
Shoulders
Back
Wrist
Waist
Legs
Feet
Rings
Trinkets
Main Hand
Embellishments
Embellishments are unique effects associated with crafted items, either as predefined elements in a recipe or added with an optional embellishment reagent, creating embellished gear. These enhancements diversify and amplify characters' capabilities.
Given that only a maximum of two embellished items can be equipped at a time, here are the best embellishments for Enhancement Shamans in Mythic+:
Enchantments
Enchantments provide minor yet valuable enhancements to various items, including Back, Chest, Wrist, Legs, Rings, Feet, Main Hand, and Off Hand.
Most enchantments are crafted via the Enchanting profession. However, Legs enhancements are crafted by Leatherworkers.
Enchantments are usually available at the auction house, making them accessible for upgrades. Here is a list of the top enchantments for Enhancement Shamans in Mythic+, essential for optimizing combat effectiveness:
Gems
Gems are crafted stones from the Jewelcrafting profession that provide stat bonuses to improve gear and fine-tune character stats. These gems can be socketed into various item slots, including Head, Neck, Wrist, Waist, and Rings.
While the availability of sockets on these items is generally random when they drop, Head, Wrist, and Waist items can have a single socket added using the Nerubian Gemweaver , which costs 6 Algari Token of Merit obtained from the Great Vault.
Additionally, for non-PvP Neck and Rings items, sockets can be added with the Magnificent Jeweler's Setting . This item, crafted by Jewelcrafters, can increase the number of sockets to 2 for Neck and Rings slots.
Available through both the auction house and the crafting order system, the following are the top gem choices for Enhancement Shamans in Mythic+:
Citrine Gems
Citrine Gems are a new type of gem socketed into the Cyrce’s Circlet : a powerful ring introduced in World of Warcraft’s The War Within 11.0.7 patch. These gems provide a versatile range of effects to enhance performance in battle.
Obtained through various activities on Siren Isle, Citrine Gems are a compelling choice for adventurers wielding the Cyrce’s Circlet. Here are the best Citrine Gems for Enhancement Shaman in Mythic+:
Thunder Citrine
Sea Citrine
