Actually, I am doing Shaman if I make a Muradin alt. Trying to decide between troll or tauren.
My current Shaman:
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Ravenholdt&n=Kateground1200-1400 dps. 987 Nature Damage. 21% sheet crit, 34% with talents and 1% of measly spell haste. Raid buffed with my boomkin buddy, it is about 43% crit and 1188 nature damage. With procs and heroism, 1.1 second lightning bolts hitting 1600, critting 3200 and lightning overload+lightning capicitator procs knocking that up to 5k+ potential damage per 1.1 second LB cast.
End Product: Best Ally Ele shaman on the server and I haven't touched t5 drops. =| Is so sad.
But! I am posting to bitch about distinguished mentally-challenged alliance in my BG pugs. I have stopped BGing a lot because I can't stand the bane of the pugs. Everywhere I go in a BG, there is soem degree of success. Be it a tower, or flag return, or defense, it goes fine. It's just that the other 95% of the map completely fails.
Last night I was doing eots as it was the daily. I won my first two at around 2000 to 300, so I had a good pug going. Then I got DCed and ended up with a different grouping of pugs. This turned out to be frustrating to a high degree. Starting off, it was fine. We had two towers and were capping a third, so I went to the middle to get flag. As long as we kept pressure on a third and had two, we'd win with the flag. We were int hat ideal situation when I went to the middle. With me came a couple healers and a second damage dealer. Us four I would quickly learn were the only thing on the map with a brain.
We get to the middle and it is horde controlled, so we work our way in. There's warriors and rogues, a pally and druid healer and mage. This group continually chain rushes us in the middle for a good long while. Outnumbered, we still take them down again and again. We have middle, we have flag, I ASSUME we are doing well. The same 6 or so Horde keep coming, obviously frustrated. I spent most of the time at 10% mana with little time to drink, my healers are amazing and keep up. I frost shock the rogues and wars, drop earthbind on them, nuke and interrupt the healers, then rinse and repeat.
After awhile, I look up at the score. We're losing, my team has lost all the other towers except one, which they are just turtling at. Now I know that there have been more Horde at flag than alliance, so I know my team has the numbers advantage at towers. Yet, they somehow lost two towers and couldn't send anyone to grab the flag we've been non-stop fighting horde at. I check the BG charts. I am topping Damage Done and KBs. Second through 11th on the chart are all Horde. The two healers with me are 1st and 3rd in healing, the next 10 are Horde.
I look at BG chat and someone says "You people at the middle are wasting time and cost us the game!" At which point I lost it and ran off an angry rant to which nobody had a response. When you outdamage the next alliance player by 100k they really can't say anything to you. A whole three of us basically running the middle, outnumbered 2-1 for 15-20 minutes and the rest of the team can't keep a single fucking base? Are their keyboards broken? The game isn't that hard. What are these people doing? You were going 12 on 9 and still getting wiped?
So I got pissed off, went to Isle of QD and blew everything up. >|
