Description
The Shaman is a high-powered offensive class with the ability to affect the entire battlefield. Throwing down totems, the Shaman can spread effects to slow down enemies, or throw down a spell-slinging totem and grab some arcane energy to hurl for massive damage.
How to fight
The Shaman can equip four totems at any given time. These totems are thrown onto the ground and have different functions; some provide an AOE effect around them, while others spawn orbs that can themselves be thrown to damage enemies.
The totems currently available for use include:
Lightning: One of the bread-and-butter damage totems, this totem spawns a ball of lightning that can be thrown at an enemy. If it hits, it does damage to the hit enemy and nearby enemies.
Fire: The second bread-and-butter damage totem, this spawns a ball of fire that does a large amount of damage to a single target.
Frost: This totem has an AOE pulse effect that slows nearby enemies.
Lava: This totem has an AOE pulse effect that does a small amount of damage to nearby enemies and increases damage to them.
Hex: This totem has an AOE pulse effect that will turn enemies into frogs temporarily (akin to the Polymorph spell of the Runemage).
Stun: This totem acts as the interrupt for the class, spawning orbs that stun a single target.
Super Ability
The Shaman super ability spawns a wolf that will attack nearby enemies. Note that it can take damage and be killed by friendly players.
