  • Dragonflight is almost upon us, some classes and specs are in a ready state. Others... Not so much, unfortunately it feels that Restoration Shamans are in the latter! In this video we have a good discussion about the state of Resto Shamans, whilst we do talk about their strengths, the video is predominately focused around the ares where they need to be improved.
    Sadly their healing is just not on par with others, if you were to put a Resto Shaman against it's Mail counterpart Preservation Evoker, they would struggle to compete. Where Shamans really shine is in their utility, as their class design has been revamped and it is similar to the totem gameplay you would expect from Wrath Classic, that being said a lot of their amazing totem utility can be picked up by their dps specs so you may find being benched and your dps Shaman being asked to pick up those talents. They still have the incredibly powerful cooldown Spirit Link however this is probably their only real desirable ability and you may find that people will bring stronger healers and "sacrifice" Spirit Link and just be ok.
    Let me know what you think! Are you planning on maining a Restoration Shaman, do you agree or disagree with the contents of this video. I would love to talk about it!

    I don't hate the current state, but I feel it's a case of losing some stuff that was great. The borrowed powers have normally felt like they completed the class. That set bonus is such a loss.
    Chain heal and healing rain feel underwhelming for me, trying to have fun but it's not working for me, but I haven't played at 70 yet to be fair.

      You're absolutely right. I think it will take people time to get used to it. I think that's why they pushed out talents so early to get people used to it. But when we get our tier set at 70 that will change again haha.

    @Ryfrost would you say that currently, as it's pre-dragonflight, they are not strong - but as we progress through the new expansion, resto shamans might scale better with additional talents and gear (inc. tier gear)?

    • @BenchwarmerWoW
      @BenchwarmerWoW  Год назад +1

      I don't know if actually mentioned it. The footage and my review is based off of full ilvl 400 gear with tier set and BiS stats etc. The footage is of that standard. That being said once more testing and statistics are gathered once we are all level 70 it may show the need for a buff. Which is usually what blizzard do before raid release.
