    Leveling spec 1-40

    Hello, i'm planing to make a shaman, and i've been wondering if its better to stick to ele or enhancement until 40(that is when i plan to go enha for sure), as it kind of seems trivial to autohit with a 2hander and spam shocks.

    Thanks in advance.

    Suggest going enh, ele isnt any good until later levels (say good at 60, great at 70 and uber at 75)

    But enh is godlike at lvl 60, so id stay with enh, and if you feel like switching to ele wait till northrend, and pick up ele gear there.
    Don't Fwoosh me.

    enhance is terrible until you get duel-wield (level 40 I believe), so i'd probably advice going ele

    if your using heirloom gear then go enhance for sure, one of the hardest parts with enhance when leveling them is getting good weapons and the 2 heirloom hammers are amaaaaaaaaaaaaazing

    Enh is great all the way, although at lower levels you'll spend quite some time casting. Ele is great but only shines past 75 when you get Lava Burst.

    I have found Elemental to be more fun, and after I hit 40 I dual-specced to Elemental/Restoration. I tried Enhancement after I had enough for improved SS/LL at 47 but just wasn't enjoying it as much as Elemental. Also, Lightning Overload is a pretty awesome spell as well for Elemental which adds a lot of burst

    1-30 elemental, 30+ Enhancement. Try some pvp at 39 with 2h with WINDFURY on it and you never want to continue
