Ntbud 14 Report post Posted July 20, 2017 Just got 30 on my Shaman, so far I've been using a Dagger + Flametongue weapon and it's been working well. Would be faster leveling now for me to go grab a Corpsemaker now that I have Windfury? Or should I stick with Dagger + Flametongue? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dogg 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2017 depends on what shield and/or weapon you have. i always push for corpsemaker/rockpounder/any decent 2h because leveling will be the only time i use windfury. if im unlucky and dont get one in a couple runs i just move on 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeneralKappa 1 Report post Posted August 2, 2017 I don't really see a point in the [already] classic mistake "1h flametongue". The [additional] damage scales with weapon speed. Between around 1.3 speed for the lowest damage and 4.0 for highest. Even if there is flat damage bonus from +spell power exist, it does not really related to leveling anyway(because you wont get much/dont need much spellpower, unless you're playing as melee elemental shaman), while dps that you can get with other enchants is greater. To gain benefit from using Flametongue enchant your target need to have very large amount of armour damage reduction. For example on lvl 34-36 to get the same dps(AP/14) as using Rockbiter weapon, your target needs to have more than 50% "armor". Windfury a bit more superior than Rockbiter though by raw dps(it dependable on the gear you use, but also getting more benefits from buffs). Also, if you found the high armored enemy(or immune to fire), you might also look on the Frostbrand weapon enchant. It has almost the same dps/dpm as Flametongue, but also has a nice proc effect. I would say it depends on the situation: if you have good 1h+shield or 2-handed weapon(one good item is getting easily than two though), but you should use either rockbiter or windfury enchants, depends on the personal preference - consistency or burst. If you find heavy armored foe - use either flametongue or frostbrand, probably same goes here, consistency vs burst(and debuff). 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
