Playstyle and priorities
Match healing tools to the damage profile and avoid deploying totems that duplicate stronger group buffs.
Your group benefits from carefully chosen totems and elemental abilities. Totem stacking rules changed during development.
Leveling 1–60: what to plan
Build around the abilities already unlocked at your current level. Keep your most important survival, control or recovery tools available and adjust your talent order for solo play versus coordinated dungeon runs. The full level-60 allocation can differ from an efficient leveling order.
Playable races for Shaman
Race availability follows the current reference matrix; racial abilities and faction restrictions should be checked before committing a character. Open a race in the interactive reference to compare its abilities.
