Shaman Class Overview

Shamans can be played as Orcs, Trolls, and Tauren for the Horde. In Classic, you cannot play Shaman on the Alliance.

Shamans have 3 talent specializations: Elemental, Enhancement, and Restoration.

• Elemental — This specialization commands the raw power of the elements to create intense magical devastation.
• Enhancement — This specialization bolsters the melee capabilities of the Shaman, ensuring they can fight up close, powered by the elements.
• Restoration — Using the spiritual power of the elements, this specialization focuses on aiding and healing allies.

The primary resource used by Shamans is Mana in all specializations.

Shamans are able to wear Cloth and Leather, as well as Mail after reaching Level 40.

Shamans are able to use Axes (One-handed, as well as Two-handed with talents), Daggers, Fist Weapons, Maces (One-handed, as well as Two-handed with talents), and Staves.
