Enhancement Shaman PvP Stat Priority, Gear, and Trinkets (Season 4)
Choosing your gear carefully is important for your Enhancement Shaman in PvP. We give you a stat priority to help you choose items with the right stats, followed by advice on how to choose the rest of your gear and your trinkets.
This page is part of our Enhancement Shaman PvP Guide.
Stat Priority for Enhancement Shaman in PvP
The stat priority for Enhancement Shaman in PvP is as follows:
- Agility;
- Versatility;
- Mastery;
- Haste;
- Critical Strike;
Agility is the best stat in all situations. Versatility is the most important stat to have. This reduces the damage you take and increases your damage and healing. This is great for increasing your and your team's overall survivability.
Haste should be around 20% minimum, with the remaining stats going into Mastery. Stacking Versatility beyond 30% in PvP is not necessary.
Gear Recommendations
For crafted gear Enhancement Shaman should craft Venom-Steeped Stompers, which gives your highest secondary stat. Giving more Mastery for more burst damage.
In addition, Adaptive Dracothyst Armguards are the best-crafted piece due to the higher uptime of secondary stats.
General Guidelines
In general, Enhancement Shaman wants to get the not-on-use trinket Draconic Gladiator's Insignia of Alacrity for consistent Agility increases.
Recommended Items
Draconic Gladiator's Emblem is a trinket that provides a temporary health buff, which can be used when you believe the team will be focusing you in big burst windows, and you will need the defensive to survive.
Draconic Gladiator's Medallion is required for PvP since this is how you can free yourself from any crowd control. This also is one of the two PvP trinkets that are part of a set, which will increase Agility and Stamina
Draconic Gladiator's Badge of Ferocity is a great on-use trinket to have to have. The on-use increased primary stat will give a temporary boost of damage, which can be used with your offensive cooldowns.
Gems and Enchant
Here are the best enchants for a Enhancement Shaman:
- Neck: Tiered Medallion Setting
- Cloak: Enchant Cloak - Homebound Speed
- Chest: Enchant Chest - Accelerated Agility
- Legs: Fierce Armor Kit

- Feet: Enchant Boots - Plainsrunner's Breeze
- Wrist: Enchant Bracer - Devotion of Speed
- Main Hand Weapon: Enchant Weapon - Sophic Devotion
