Enhancement Shaman in the War Within
Enhancement Shaman going into The War Within is in a very interesting spot. Throughout Dragonflight it had two sub-specs (Elementalist and Storm) that co-existed and fought each other for viability, and that's looking like it will continue forward despite the addition of Hero Talents. That means that, while there are some structural changes to how each of them operate in context with the new trees, there's potentially four variants in the spec at once, which while cool means it may be a bit overwhelming deciding what to play going forward.
The core spec gameplay remains mostly the same, and it got the desperately needed talent point reductions to make all this happen. While it was a bit of a strange beta period with some very late changes coming in under the wire, they did wonders for broadening us out into a more robust spec without losing the identity of either
