Posted: June 5, 2010 in Cataclysm, DPS, Enhancement Shaman, Enhancement Shaman PvP, itemization, Shaman, World of Warcraft, Wrath of the Lich KingTags: Cataclysm Agility, Cataclysm Shaman Gear, Cataclysm Stamina Changes, Cataclysm Stat Changes, Elemental Shaman gear, Enhancement Shaman, Enhancement Shaman Cataclysm, Enhancement Shaman gear, Enhancement Shaman itemization, Enhancement Shaman Stamina, Eyonix, Hunter Gear, Stamina, Stormstrike, World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, WoW Cataclysm Stats, WoW mail gear, WoW ranged classes, WoW Stamina
As part of Blizzard’s overhaul of WoW’s stat system in Cataclysm, Stamina will be rebalanced in favor of non-plate-wearing classes.
