Shaman
Shaman are spiritual guides and practitioners, not of the divine, but of the very elements. Unlike some other mystics, shaman commune with forces that are not strictly benevolent. The elements are chaotic, and left to their own devices, they rage against one another in unending primal fury. It is the call of the shaman to bring balance to this chaos. Acting as moderators among earth, fire, water, and air, shaman summon totems that focus the elements to support the shaman’s allies or punish those who threaten them.
These masters of the elements can also call upon elemental forces directly, unleashing torrents of lava and bolts of lightning against foes. The elements can create, destroy, support, and hinder.
The experienced shaman balances the vast spectrum of these primordial forces into an array of diverse abilities, making shaman versatile heroes and valued members of any group.
During combat, shaman place damaging and controlling totems on the ground to maximize their effectiveness while hindering their enemies. Shaman are versatile enough to battle foes up close or at range, but wise shaman choose their avenue of attack based on their enemies’ strengths and weaknesses.

They got rid of mana spring totem, so we don't have that anymore, but we still have our watershield, and if you don't pvp, than you can take the glyph to give more passive mana regen to get rid of the proc when hit.
Switching shields will cut down on your dps though because you'll lose out of your lightning shield stacks, thus losing out on your earth shock proc.

BAG OF STICKS
Waiting for war in wintergrasp, A mage of pedigree select, Cast a spell of arcane might, And granted me intellect
A priest in robes of whitest silk (a very righteous looking dude), Raised his staff and shouted out, And I was blessed with fortitude
My mind was filled with extra thoughts, My body was bursting with life, I'd never felt so strong and sure -, But still more allies arrived
Two paladins on their chargers rode, Rallying us for the fight, Cheered out fearsome battle cries, And blessed us with wisdom and might
From the shadows to my left, A beast of cunning and guile, Transformed into a tall, wise druid, And Marked me with the Wild
More mages gestured and muttered words, And conjured a feast for us all, And warlocks gave us each healthstones
And anchored souls, should they fall
A rogue whispered "I've got your back", And twirled daggers in his palms, "Relax friend, I'll clear the road,", A death knight said with icy calm. A row of hunters checked their guns,ammunition, arrows and quivers, And their beasts let out hungry growls
That gave me frightened shivers, A warrior strode out to the front, His face was full of scars, His muscles thick, his armor clawed
From the fight of a hundred wars "The enemy approaches!" he shouted out "Prepare to match their rage!"
And a dozen more with axes and shields, Charged out onto the stage
The warrior smiled at his fortified crew, And when he saw me, his smile died, He walked close and grunted through his bulk
"Exactly what help do you provide?" Surrounded by these adventurers, With their formidable spells and tricks, How was I to match their might, With a simple bag of sticks?
"Nothing." I said honestly, "There is nothing I can give, But if you trust in my abilities, Then those who would die will live."
The warrior leered and banged his axe, And growled to the other men,"You wear a robe, and provide no buffs, Tell me, what good are ye then?" Put on the spot and doubted thus, I was about to try and explain, When beyond the walls there came a sound,Like a steam tank gone insane , A crashing sound, deafening, The front gate splintered forth,And into the courtyard spilled the enemy, Bearing spell and sword and torch "To war!" we shouted and rallied forward, Driving the enemy back
The mages summoned storms of ice, And the hunters launched their attack , The warriors charged and cleaved their axes
Cutting the enemy down, The healers closed their bloody wounds, And shielded them from harm, From off to one side a warlock cast, A spell of certain doom, Towards a hero fighting in our ranks, Who was destined for a tomb. Pulling a totem from my bag,
I stamped it in the ground, The warlock's spell was pulled into it, And it disappeared without a sound , Just then a rogue appeared from out of sight,Behind our wisest caster, Raised his dagger to end his sagely life -But my hex was slightly faster
Two more totems I pulled from my bag, And planted them in the path, My allies were graced with renewed energy,And an inherent sense of wrath, I spied a rogue suffering, From a deadly poison shot, I cleansed the ailment from his body
And healed him on the spot, Three of the enemy broke through our ranks, And charged towards our back, I stamped a totem in the ground, And entangled them in their tracks. Just then I felt a stunning blow, That sent me to one knee, A paladin struck me twice again, And I was dead before I could plead. But to a shaman, death is temporary, And I called on an ankh of power
To restore my life and give me strength, So that we could yet win the hour, The paladin charged on towards the healers
And prepared to kill the lot, But lightning arced out from my fingers, And fried him on the spot,I sat with a drink to quickly recover
Next to the paladin, his hair fried crispy-curly, And the warrior spied me sitting down, And yelled "make yourself useful girlie!"
Chagrined, I rose to my feet,And chanted a mystic call,That infused a bloodfury in my allies,And empowered one and all
I planted another totem into the ground, And the ground itself came alive, A monster of rock charged into the enemy
And scattered them like bees from a hive. We pushed them back and cut them down, And it was clear the day was ours,
We lost only the gate and very few men, And defended all our towers. The celebration was bright and merry, And rewards were spread around, The dead were carried away and buried, And debris cleared from the ground, I had collected my totems and cleaned them all, And bound them with a leather strand, When the warrior approached with a pair of flagons, And thrust one into my hand, "There's more to you than meets the eye", He said with a nod and a wink, "And the next time I head into battle,
I'll be looking for a shaman I think.", It was generous praise and I accepted it, And courtseyed deep and quick, "I won't have any buffs for you - But I
