If you can pick any class for WAR...

[krzyspc]

Why did you pick a shaman :cool:

Shaman's unite.

[Krulltak]

I didn't, but out of all the casters so far these kick the most , especially when you get to summon the massive fists o' Gork n' Mork ta KLOMP TINGZ FLAT!

[Anklebiter]

There is more than a pretty good chance my main character will be a Goblin Shaman.

I had already decided to play one of the support characters since that is the role I enjoy the most in MMORPGs, and being a small, annoying greenskin being able to bring down the full force of the WAAAAAGH!!! on my soon to be sorry enemy... well, it is hard not to resist! :twisted:

[versuvius]

HAH weakling shamans...cant even hold a toddler standard choppa...got as much WAAAAG!! as a stuntie

Versuvius, please, if your going to play greenskin, Learn to lore. Shamans are very well respected amongst the greenskins, out of 'fear' (technically it's not fear really, it's somthing else as orcs truely aren't afraid of anything). They can blow your heads off and they are the voice o' Gork n' Mork, so what they says iz what da gods say.

[versuvius]

even if l earned the lore (which i am attempting) i still would remain adamant that anything smaller than me is only worth kicking and possily eating....besides after numerous rolls and retrys i made a psyker black ork and i would say im better than any gobbo....(3 days of re rolling and re starting to be precice)

[Krulltak]

Well, there can be orc shamans as well, and even the goblin ones, despite being small, are still respected, cuz they can still blow your head off.

[Daris]

and it is generally seen that anything that is offending or agressive towards are shaman might aswell be done to Gork himself.

[Dante]

I'm still thinking wether my main will be a Goblin Squig Herder or a Dwarf Ironbreaker. At the moment I'm leaning more to the Goblin Squig Herder.

[versuvius]

plth...shaman...let me soo him conjure me some tea and i may show respect

[Daris]

huh...Vers you really dont want anything to do with role playing do you mate?

[versuvius]

im just not very good at it...i try *snif* i try

[Kargul 'Eadbasha]

If all else fails, 'eres how!

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!! :D

[versuvius]

i know...but i cannot spend an entire RP shouting WAAAAGH!

[Dante]

If the Goblin Shaman doesn't become a "medic" class, I think I'm going to go ahead and play one, but we will have to wait and see. So far the Squig Herder is first in my book.

I think this explains everything. :mrgreen:

[versuvius]

[Nethunz]

[versuvius]

yerh i agreez with yehz o that one...youz is all scared little squigs if uouz is scared of a litle gobbo with a stick

[freeid]

If there is a way to DPS your shaman I will be there in a flash, although saying none tends to want to play with healers specced for damage I will probably have another character to twink him out and give him cash boosts.

[versuvius]

plthh...stoppid weakling gobbos

Shamans seesaw between healing and killing. In order to heal good, they first crush a couple o' stunties. After than, their healing gains power and they use massive heals, which increases their damage so they start killing somone again, and their WAAAAAAGH! energy just continues to seesaw between stronger heals and stronger damage.

[versuvius]

then you poke him and he explodes

[Nethunz]

In theory, yes Shaman are capable of small bursts of DPS. To effectively DPS though they're going to balance between healing and casting damage for maximum benefits.

[versuvius]

how many shamans can acheive that balance...not many i hope rofl

[Parker]

If the Goblin Shaman doesn't become a "medic" class, I think I'm going to go ahead and play one, but we will have to wait and see. So far the Squig Herder is first in my book.From what I've seen of the PvP and press event videos, the Shamans do quite well for themselves in combat.

yeah, what this guy said. bright wizards come a close second for me though.

[Klepa]

Because goblin shamans look just so damn badass.
And I like healing (up to a point).
And they look badass.
