   Windfury Weapon
   on both of your weapons.
3. Maintain
   Strength of Earth Totem
   ,
   Mana Spring Totem
   , and
   Searing Totem

   Grace of Air Totem

   Grace of Air Totem
   .
5. Cast
   Fire Elemental Totem
   before
   Bloodlust
   is used.
6. Sync your weapon attacks (details below).
7. Cast
   Shamanistic Rage
   as many times as possible throughout an encounter without capping on mana when used.
8. Cast
   Stormstrike
   .
9. Cast
   Flame Shock
   or
   Earth Shock
   . If the target has the
   Flame Shock
   DoT, prioritize
   Earth Shock
   . This means for the Standard Build you will cast 1
   Flame Shock
   followed by 2
   Earth Shock
   because of
   Reverberation
   . For the Totem Twisting Build, you will cast 1
   Flame Shock
   followed by 1
   Earth Shock
   .
10. If using the Standard Build, cast
    Fire Nova Totem
    . After it activates, recast
    Searing Totem

2. Use
   Magma Totem
   after
   Fire Nova Totem
   explodes.
3. Maintain
   Flame Shock
   on 2 targets.
4. Perform single target rotation.

Totem Twisting

1. An intimidating name for a simple process. All this process involves is casting
   Grace of Air Totem
   immediately after casting
   Windfury Totem
   . Since
   Windfury Totem
   applies its buff right after you cast it, you are able to cheat the system in a sense and get benefits from 2 air totems at the same time.
2. Refreshing
   Windfury Totem
   when the buff runs out is a must for this to be effective. Which means every 10 seconds, you will be casting
   Windfury Totem
   , followed by
   Grace of Air Totem
   . Must be specced into
   Totemic Focus
   since this is very mana intensive.

Weapon Syncing

1. The benefit of syncing your weapons is to make the most out of
   Flurry
   and ensure that your Main Hand weapon is always the one benefitting from
   Windfury Weapon
   procs.
2. To achieve this consistently, right-click your target from out of range before the fight starts. When your weapon swing timer is half way done, use the following macro:
/tar Player
/targetlasttarget
/startattack

TBC Classic Enhancement Shaman Aldor or Scryer

We recommend going Aldor as an Enhancement Shaman in TBC Classic. The Aldor shoulder enchant,
Greater Inscription of Vengeance
, is slightly better than the Scryer
Greater Inscription of the Blade
. Aldor also provides a quest that rewards
Overseer's Signet
, your bis ring for Pre-Raid gearing.
