3.

Best Enhancement Shaman Anima Powers

Throughout your climb through Torghast, you will be offered up a variety of Anima Powers as you progress. Some of these are unique, while others can stack and making the right choice first time can be difficult. Because of that we have made a Tier List below that helps make quick decisions if you are struggling.

Remember though, do not follow the list blindly, there are a lot of different playstyles to explore within Torghast and trying things out is part of the enjoyment. None of the powers are necessary to complete a run, and picking a power that improves something you rarely use will ultimately be useless. After all, you might not run into the power that you are looking for each run!

"S" are considered ideal picks while "F" should be avoided.

For a complete list of Anima Powers available to Shamans, please refer to the pages linked just below.

4.

Phantasma Anima Powers for Enhancement Shaman

Occasionally, you will be offered the ability to get Phantasma instead of an Anima Power, or increases to your Phantasma generation. Judging these is more difficult because it depends on how much of each floor you are clearing. Grabbing these early on is usually a good idea so you can make use of vendors, while the later the run goes the less valuable these are.

5.

Enhancement Shaman Playstyle for Torghast, Tower of the Damned

Surprisingly despite Enhancement's survival problems in regular gameplay, we actually have quite a good toolkit for Torghast. The suite of small utility and access to self-healing, alongside some really good high frequency defensive powers we can grab lets us tank damage while dishing it back quite effectively. Some tips for gameplay are:

  • Try to make sure you always have some Maelstrom Weapon Icon Maelstrom Weapon charges banked in case you are in need of casting Healing Surge Icon Healing Surge in a pinch.
  • Use utility totems aggressively, which means Capacitor Totem Icon Capacitor Totem to lock targets down as you engage, and Healing Stream Totem Icon Healing Stream Totem to keep you healthy during each pull.
  • Do not be afraid to kite if you feel you are in danger. You can keep targets slows while you move away in Ghost Wolf Icon Ghost Wolf to buy some time.
  • Use Bloodlust Icon Bloodlust aggressively, do not hold it for the boss floors if you are running into a tough pack. Use all the tools you have as often as you can because usually they will be available again come the end of the floor.
  • Earth Elemental Icon Earth Elemental is a lifesaver. If you run into any extremely dangerous packs this can tank them for long enough to make kill the most immediate danger off, so use it early and often.
  • If a pack is preventing you from pulling smaller amounts, make use of Hex Icon Hex on the most dangerous enemy and come back to it later, crowd control is extremely valuable in Torghast.
  • Do not rush into big pulls if you have no cooldowns and are not stable. Torghast has no timer, and enemies can become very dangerous at higher floor levels so know your limits.
