Picking your race is just as important as picking your class. While the race you pick will not affect your performance as all races are fairly equal, who really wants to stare at something they find repulsive for any amount of time?

The Shaman class compared to other classes does not leave you much room for race diversity. There are very few races that can currently be Shamans, especially if you decide to play Alliance. You should be able to find something that suits wow gold your fancy though. Keep in mind with the release of Cataclysm Blizzard will be allowing two more races to be Shamans, the Goblin and the Dwarf. Below is a list of the benefits you will gain from each available race:

Alliance

Draenei (Burning Crusade): Draenei have the ability to cast Gift of the Naaru, which allows the player to heal themselves. They are also provided with natural Shadow resistance, an increased chance to hit with all spells and attacks that is shared with the Draenei’s party members. Draenei also have the Gemcutting skill, increasing their Jewelcrafting skill by 5.

Horde

Orc: Orcs come with some powerful racial abilities including, Blood Fury which increases melee attack power, Command which increases damage dealt by all pets, Dodge which increases your chance to dodge enemy melee attacks, and Axe Specialization.

Troll: Trolls get the ability to Regenerate, which increases their overall health regeneration rate, and they also have the Berserking skill which increases attack and casting speed by 20% for 10 seconds. Trolls also naturally have Beast Slaying,coffee mugs, Bow Specialization, and Throwing Specialization. Finally Trolls can do Da Voodoo Shuffle which reduces the duration of all movement impairing effects by 15%. Very handy in PvP.

Tauren: Taurens are one with the land and as such they have Cultivation which increases their Herbalism skill. They also have a natural Nature Resistance, and Endurance which increases their base health. Finally Taurens can perform a War Stomp which stuns up to 5 nearby enemies for 2 seconds.

Choosing your Professions
Each profession in the World of Warcraft brings various bonuses with it. Choosing the right ones for your class is very important as it can increase your damage or healing output. Below is a list of the professions that are suitable for the Shaman class. Choose wisely!

Alchemy
Mixology increases the effect and duration when any flask or elixir a player is able to make is used. Also depending on what path you choose to take buy wow gold allows you to proc extra flasks, pots, or transmutes. A good choice since every player uses flasks.

Jewelcrafting
Provides powerful gems only available to Jewelcrafters.

Blacksmithing
Provides an outstanding bonus as it allows you to socket your gloves and bracers with a gem slot. Those two extra sockets can be used for any gem you choose and can really give you that extra edge.

Leatherworking
Not only can you make yourself some nice gear once you level it, but it provides the player with Fur Lining which can be added to your bracers. This enchant takes the place of the normal enchant you would get from an Enchanter and is far more powerful.

Inscription
Able to produce shoulder enchants known as Master’s Inscriptions. It’s almost worth it to be a scribe just so you don’t have to grind the Sons of Hodir reputation. The Master’s Inscriptions are slightly better than the universally available versions.

Mana
Shamans rely on something known as Mana to cast their spells. It can be replenished by drinking,potions, or just waiting. It regenerates based on spirit and does not regenerate during casting.

Learning to best use your Mana will be key in defeating enemies as a Shaman. If you use too much then you’ll spend more time regenerating. If you try to use too little then you may find you are sacrificing more health to use less mana. Remember though, it’s easier to sit down and drink then walk back to your corpse!
Certain totems can be used to regenerate mana. Rely on these when you need to regenerate mana in combat.

Totems
Totems are very unique to the Shaman class. They are the only class that can use totems and are extremely useful. Totems are spells obtained through quests that can summon a “totem” on the ground that does a certain effect.
There are many different totems and each one has a different effect. There are over 25 different ones! Learning when and where to use any totem will determine how good a Shaman really is.

Important Stats
Since the Shaman can melee, be an offensive caster,wedding dresses, or heal, the stat choice depends on which of these three you choose to play. Enhancement Shaman will focus on typical melee stats,cheap dvds, Elemental Shaman will focus on more caster cheap wow gold like stats, while Shaman who choose to spec into the Restoration tree will be looking for stats that enhance their healing abilities. No matter how you choose to play your Shaman choosing the right stats for that spec is all important.

Without a doubt one of my biggest in game pet peeves is the people in my raid lacking buffs. It could be flasks, or simply a player buff such as Fortitude, either way it gets my nerd rage going. While some would advise me to calm down and let it go,cheap dvds, I simply can’t. Without the proper buffs you are doing the raid a disservice, and hindering (at least slightly) the rest of the raid. If I happen to be in that raid, then it becomes personal.

Back in the 40 man days it was next to impossible to be sure that every single raid member had the appropriate buffs, unless you wanted to spend half an hour scrolling over each raider’s individual name. Thanks to the reduction wow gold in numbers of raid groups,coffee mugs, checking buffs by hand has become significantly easier, but still it would be nice to have a mod do it for you. So I was very excited to come across a mod (RaidBuffStatus) that claimed to do just that, but would it live up to expectations or just frustrate me even further?

Mod Name: RaidBuffSatus
Category: Buffs and Debuffs
Author: Daneilbarron, Cremor
Version Reviewed At: 3.249
Homepage: Click Here

RaidBuffStatus (RBS) is an add on that is designed to check, show, and report the buff status of your party. Unlike other similar addons, RBS does this intelligently. If you are confused as to what that might mean here is an example based on the one given on the mod’s homepage; only if there is a Mage present in your raid will the mod check for an intellect buff, and it will not check the buffs of players who are not in the same zone as the rest of your party.

So I was more than a little excited to start testing out this mod, as it sounded quite literally to be the answer to my raiding prayers. Once installed I noticed right away that as the website claims, RBS is useable right out of the box, instantly gaining the mod some extra bonus points.

Once you join a raid or party the dashboard will appear. The dashboard is where you will be able to view  all the buffs RBS checks for, plus other stats such as raid health, how many people are alive, and raid mana. The buffs are represented by corresponding icons with a number in the center. This number lets wow gold you know exactly how many party members are missing each buff. If these icons are hovered over you can then see the names of each player that is missing that particular buff.

Already this mod has made most raid leaders lives that much easier, but it gets even better! From the dashboard you can report to raid or party the names of the players who are missing buffs. You can choose to either report for Trash or a Boss. If you choose Trash all buffs except elixirs and soul stone will be counted, if you choose Boss it will take into account all possible buffs. To report on a buff you simply Shift-Click on the icon for that buff, or you can also choose to save someone some embarrassment and whisper them instead by Control-Clicking instead.

On top of all the awesome things RBS already does (and does well) it can now check specs, help you buff,wedding dresses, and provides tank taunt warnings as well as crowd control warnings. One of the things I especially liked was if a Fish Feast was provided, and someone did not get the food buff, when the Feast came close to expiring the mod would whisper the slacking players with a gentle reminder. To see the full list of warnings, and other amazing features RBS provides I once again direct you to the homepage listed above.

The true test for me though was when I decided to try my hand at the options menu. Nothing frustrates me more than a mod that takes a degree in rocket science to customize. Once again though I was pleasantly surprised. The RBS options window turned out to be easy to figure out, and even easier to customize to my needs. When open, the options window provides a list of all the buffs, and how you would like the buffs to be monitored. Simply check or uncheck an option to turn it on or off. RBS gives you full control of almost everything making it so each user can easily modify it to suit their raiding needs.

There were two very minor hitches that I came across while using the mod. The first was RBS did not seem to recognize holiday food, even though it was just as good as any other food. This meant that people were being whispered who didn’t really need to be whispered, and it became rather annoying. The second came when more than one member of the raid had the mod downloaded. While only one RBS (thankfully) would report and whisper players you never could tell which player’s RBS was going to be the primary mod. On one night it even switched from one player to another halfway through the raid.

Overall though I was beyond satisfied with the mod, and would recommend it to any raid leader who is trying to whip those slacking buy wow gold players into shape. Nothing makes someone buff faster than seeing your name come across in raid chat. Of course this mod won’t be for everyone. Some may even find it annoying. While I appreciate the extra warning, some users may not be of the same mindset. In fact some people may get down right agitated when you point out their lack of buffs. So users beware. I personally plan on continuing to use it to aid in my raiding, and hope that all who try it out get as much benefit out of it as I have.

Arthas posee un secreto. Por alguna razón, se mantiene la Agonía de Escarcha en el Salón de Reflexión.

HealBot is a highly configurable lightweight healing raid frame replacement. It provides a small screen on your U.I. showing the health of all of your allies in the party/raid. It tells you their HP, if they’re in range, and allows you to do various key combinations wow gold in order to cast certain spells on your ally. It’s an attempt to provide one easy to see screen showing all of the raid&rsquo,cheap dvds;s health and providing a quick and efficient means to healing everyone.

It is easily configured, can be skinned to fit your tastes, and can be programmed with 60 key combinations to cast spells. So for instance, do you want shift middle click to cast Flash Heal while shift right click casts Dispel Magic? Well, it can handle that and a lot more.

It also provides easy reminders to decurse/purge/depoison/etc. with your available skills, removing the need of additional addons to do the same functions. It also syncs with other heals in order to show incoming heals and better manage healing throughout the entire raid.

Grid (left) and HealBot (right) side by side.

HealBot – Review
I’ll start this review off with a story. Back a long time ago in the days of Molten Core I found myself in a very sticky situation. I had to raid heal content that we were way overgeared for in order to farm Nexus Crystals to pay for Naxxramas attunements. I didn’t want to search names out to heal and healing assignments for a 40-man raid were few and far between especially for content you overgear.

So I found an addon that would show the players with the least amount of health on top. I’d spam flash heal on that person over and over and was always #1 in healing and nowhere on the overhealing meters. That was because it was a very efficient way to heal and the addon provided a service. It let me heal content I didn’t want to pay attention to without much problem.

In a lot of ways,folding bikes, HealBot works something similar to this. You can click on a person’s name and you’re healing them. You can use different key combos to accomplish this and it works. For that, I can say this addon is a success. However, the story goes on.

The addon was useless wow gold however for real raiding because the person with the lowest health wasn’t always the person you wanted to heal. You wanted to heal people who were about to take environment damage, people who weren’t standing behind a wall, etc. There was a lot more than “x person is the lowest HP person” because it’s DPS’s responsibility to take cover when they’re almost dead. Use a potion, hit mana shield, whatever!

In the same way, that’s how I feel about HealBot. It provides a way to heal easily right out of the box, but easy healing isn’t good healing all the time. The key combos you use in HealBot are only for HealBot. If you click someone in the raid you’ll need to use the game’s regular keybindings in order to heal them. If you’re doing that then why do you need a fancy addon to switch over to?

"So if you’re looking for click-casting right out of the box inside of a raid frame that tells you everything then HealBot satisfies that demand."If we ignore that then the addon is rather solid. It does what it’s designed to do and it does it well. There isn’t a lot of memory usage and it does exactly what it offers. Skinning is rather difficult and the settings menu is very confusing, but with any kind of addon like this you’re going to find the customization to be very in-depth and hard to figure out. So if you’re looking for click-casting right out of the box inside of a raid frame that tells you everything then HealBot satisfies that demand.

However, if you’re looking for a way to heal better then there are many other addons and many other ways to go about doing it. Not to mention you can add click-casting to any other raid frame with “Clique.” HealBot used to automatically downrank for you as well, which would be big, if downranking wasn’t long ago nerfed. So that just leaves HealBot as a raid frame replacement. As a raid frame replacement it lacks in many areas. It doesn’t fit as much information into a smaller area like Grid (or in some people’s opinions VuhDo). It does show you everything other addons show you, but other addons do a lot better of a job of it. The way HealBot shows HoTs also take up space on the healthbars, making them harder to see.

So really, to me, HealBot doesn’t add anything new or exciting to the world of raid frames. I would say if you’re the type who clicks skills then you’re going find this addon to be awesome but that can come cheap wow gold with any raid frame replacement. This just does it out of the box. However, looking at the best gaming mouse out there,led lights, the MX518, you only have so many buttons on your mouse before you’d have to resort to your keyboard. If you’re using the arrow keys to move then you’re at a disadvantage to use any kind of spiffy combos.

So even then, it’d probably be better to just train your hand to use WSAD for movement and learn how to press keys to use heals. Most healers only use a few heals (Druids use Wild Growth, Lifebloom, Regrowth, Rejuv, and Nourish or a total of five heals) so it’s not hard to bind those to keys near your movement keys and heal efficiently.

Vous devrez pour cela selectionner votre livre de sorts et de compétences et glisser/déposer ce que vous souhaitez voir apparaître dans cette barre. Tout ce qui a un effet sur clic peut y être placé.

La barre de menu

La barre de menu vous permet d’accéder aux différentes informations sur votre personnage et sur le monde. L’ensemble des fonctions des ces différents menus seront détaillés dans un autre article, très prochainement :) !
