Original Post:

Hello (first post ever :-) )

At first, i want to say "thanks" to all who brought up this Theroycraft for enhancement shamans. Since i started playing my shaman, i came here to get anwers for my questions.

Link to my Character if you want to have a Look:
The World of Warcraft Armory

What I want to discuss is the choice of weapons.

In your post, you recommend that Vanir's Righ Fist would be the best choice (except from Season3 Weapon) for main hand. After we got the new badge vendor on our realm, I switched from my old combination (rising Tide / Syphon) to Vanir's / Syphon. As expected, I mentioned an increase of DPS.

I used Yo's simulator (Crazy Shaman's DPS Calculator) to proof my new combination of weapons. The result was around 1380 DPS (6200 boss armor). I changed the setup to "dual syphon" (replaced Vanir's stats by Syphon stats). Against my expectations, the DPS result was higher (1460 DPS).

I don't know, how the simulator works and how reliable it is... do you think that Syphon/Syphon could be still the best combination for me?

A short overview for my stats:

1718 AttackPower
29.32 % Crit
111 Hitrating

With best regards,

Artoxia
