WoW Forever Shaman PvP
The top-voted PvP talent build for each Shaman spec, written by players on this site, and the Shaman talents the final client changed in ways that matter in PvP. Level 60 PvP was never on the beta, so builds are theorycrafted until launch on November 4; vote on the guides to move the best build up.
Shaman PvP talent changes in the final client
DataminedEarthbound
Elemental talent
Earthbind Totem roots nearby enemies for 5 seconds when you drop it, and the talent now sits in row 4 of Elemental, easier to reach.
Elemental Mastery
Elemental talent
New capstone: for 15 seconds Lightning Bolt and Lava Burst cast 0.5 seconds faster and Chain Lightning has no cooldown, a burst window for Elemental.
Improved Ghost Wolf
Enhancement talent
Ghost Wolf casts 3 seconds faster at full rank, which keeps an Enhancement or Restoration Shaman mobile between fights.
From the talent text in WoW Forever client build 1.60.1.70532 (client tables), in our own words. Try them in the Shaman talent calculator.
