Shaman

Totems, mail, and a choice between healing, elemental spells and two-handed melee. Classic’s Horde-only class; Forever opens it to Dwarves and Horde Skyborne. 50 talents in Elemental, Enhancement, Restoration; 191 abilities; 19 trainers; 5 races, 2 new.

What Blizzard has said

Blizzard's own statements about the Shaman in Forever, then what it has said about every class, each tagged and sourced. The trees and abilities below are what the beta client carries, build 1.60.1.70755; they will move as the beta does.

Horde-aligned Skyborne “embrace elemental traditions and gain access to the Shaman class.”

Confirmed Blizzard — What’s Next panel recap
Combined hit and crit chances are meant to help hybrid specializations “such as Retribution Paladins and Enhancement Shaman,” and spellcaster weapons now carry spell damage and healing.

Confirmed Blizzard — Deep Dive panel recap
Restoration gains Riptide, which strengthens Chain Heal, and Elemental gains Lava Burst, which deals bonus damage to a target with Flame Shock.

Confirmed Wowhead — Class Highlights for Warriors, Rogues and Shamans
Totems now cost 1.0 second of global cooldown instead of 1.5, totems that give a lasting buff stay up 5 minutes instead of 2, and a new tracker shows each active totem’s remaining time. Every Shaman learns Call of the Elements at level 20, which opens a totem bar and drops a preset of four totems, one per element, in a single cast; Call of the Spirits at 30 and Call of the Ancestors at 40 add a second and third preset, and Totemic Projection at 22 moves totems already placed. The four weapon imbues — Frostbrand, Flametongue, Rockbiter and Windfury Weapon — last 60 minutes instead of 5 and no longer clash with temporary weapon enchantments, and Fire Nova is now a spell that erupts at the Shaman’s current Fire Totem.

Elemental loses its Elemental Mastery talent. Blizzard says it kept the spec’s damage from being raised to the right level in PvE without making it much too strong in PvP, so Elemental gets new spells instead.

Confirmed Blizzard — Nethaera’s note on Elemental Mastery’s removal
Restoration loses its Nature’s Guidance talent.

Since the October 1 beta build, Disease Cleansing Totem lasts its full 5 minutes and Totemic Recall restores mana as intended.

Confirmed Blizzard — WoW Forever Beta Development Notes, October 1
Since the October 8 beta build, the low ranks of Lightning Bolt (1 to 5) grow more evenly, so each new rank is an upgrade.

Confirmed Blizzard — WoW Forever Beta Development Notes, October 8
Blizzard’s short on Enhancement builds the spec around two-handed weapons only, with a 3-minute cooldown that raises attack speed, an effect that cuts Lightning Bolt’s cast time and Mana cost, and spell damage and healing that grow with Intellect.

Confirmed Wowhead — Blizzard’s Enhancement Shaman short
PvP gear now reaches specializations that used to lack options: Shaman get separate healer, melee and caster PvP sets.

Confirmed Blizzard — How PvP Progression in World of Warcraft: Forever Works
Since the October 15 beta build, Grace of Air, Strength of Earth, Windfury and Flametongue Totems reach the whole raid. Elemental Mastery is Elemental’s 31-point gold medal talent and Lava Burst its 21-point one, Chain Lightning costs about 35% less mana, and Fire Nova is weaker and cheaper.

Confirmed Blizzard — WoW Forever Beta Development Notes, October 15
Since the November 2 beta build, Lava Burst is removed entirely, replaced by Call of Thunder, a 5% crit bonus for Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning. Lightning Bolt’s base damage rises on every rank and Chain Lightning’s cast time rises to 2.5 seconds for more damage, while Restoration’s Riptide loses its initial heal and its cooldown rises to 12 seconds (was 6), for a cheaper cast less often.

Confirmed Blizzard — WoW Forever Beta Development Notes, November 2
Blizzard is planning hotfixes for Tuesday, November 10, to make Strength always Enhancement’s strongest stat over Intellect and Spell Power, so Enhancement no longer prefers gear meant for Mages and Warlocks; Blizzard advises Enhancement Shamans leveling now to start collecting Strength and Attack Power gear.

Confirmed Blizzard — Class Tuning Incoming, November 10

Blizzard’s Deep Dive recap names six new race and class combinations: Gnome Priest, Human Hunter, Dwarf Shaman, Orc Mage, Troll Warlock and Undead Paladin, “with more planned for future updates.”

Confirmed Blizzard — Deep Dive panel recap
Blizzard’s race and class chart (22 September) lists every pairing Forever offers, one chart per faction: Classic’s pairings, the six new ones, and the Skyborne on both sides, as Windshaper Shaman for the Horde or High Order Mages for the Alliance.

Confirmed Blizzard — race and class chart
Talent trees keep Classic’s structure: the same number of rows, milestone talents at 11, 21 and 31 points, and a new 16-point milestone. Some talents are unchanged from patch 1.12, some adjusted, and key class buffs (Divine Spirit, Blessing of Kings, Improved Mark of the Wild) are now baseline. Each race gets two active and two passive racial abilities, reworked to be stronger and more distinct.

Confirmed Blizzard — Deep Dive panel recap
Combat keeps Classic’s pace: an ordinary creature takes a solo player “roughly 10–15 seconds to defeat,” crowd control still matters in dungeons, and damage dealers still respect threat. Spell, melee and ranged hit chance are combined into one stat, as are the three crit chances. Paladins are the first class detailed; “more class and race details are planned through future videos and articles.”

Confirmed Blizzard — Deep Dive panel recap
Blizzard: class identity “remains central,” with “new abilities, new race and class combinations, and updates designed to preserve the feel of the original game.” The updates “focus on talents and abilities you notice, meaningful trade-offs, and reasons to value what each class brings.”

Confirmed Blizzard — What’s Next panel recap
The Battle.net Shop describes “updated class design” and “an expanded list of race and class options, including Dwarf Shaman and Forsaken Paladin.”

Confirmed Battle.net Shop — product page
Every class is being revisited from the original game, Blizzard says: the foundation players remember stays, and the updates aim to give more choice, a stronger identity and room to experiment.

Confirmed Blizzard — Class Deep Dives: Hunter and Druid
Changing talents, Legacy talents included, takes a visit to a class trainer in a major city, and Dual Specialization opens at level 40.

Blizzard intends to review whether party buffs, Shaman totems among them, should remain party-wide, Wowhead reported on 5 October from Blizzard’s latest podcast.

Confirmed Wowhead — What’s best for WoW: Forever, party buffs or raid buffs?
Blizzard says it isn’t modernizing Forever’s classes. It errs toward simpler classes with engaging depth: some Classic classes that were too simple have gained a few mechanics, and it wants to keep the original’s pacing and combat speed, Blizzard told TechRadar.

Confirmed TechRadar — interview with Blizzard: classes, respecs and encounters
Keeping each class feeling distinct, rather than letting them blur together, matters most, Blizzard’s Clay Stone told Inven Global: every spec should have a reason to exist, even if it is not the best pick for every fight.

Confirmed Inven Global — interview with Holly Longdale and Clay Stone
In the November 2 beta build, Blizzard raised damage across every class and raised high-level creature health to compensate, moving away from holding classes to Classic’s power budgets because it left some abilities feeling lackluster. The stated goal is not perfect numerical equality between classes, but making every class feel valuable to the groups it joins.

Confirmed Blizzard — WoW Forever Beta Development Notes, November 2
Blizzard does not plan further big class tuning changes before the raids open in December, aside from bugs or serious outliers, and expects a large tuning pass once there is data from players leveling past 30 across a wide range of content.

Talents (50 talents, 148 ranks)

The three trees as the Forever beta client holds them, row by row: each row opens after the points its label names have been spent in that tree, and a talent that needs another says so. Every rank's sentence is the client's own, its numbers filled in. Talents marked changed differ from Classic in their wording, ranks, place or prerequisite, and show Classic's wording underneath; new ones have no Classic counterpart. Classic talents a tree no longer has close each column.
