Shaman one handed or two? : World of Warcraft General Discussions

What is better for a shaman onehaned with a shield or 2handed? I am currently usin two handed but i seem to get smoked pretty quick when I pull aggo in scholo or strath.

i use shield and will do keep on doing it, u have 45% more ac and u are much harder to kill when u raid, it would take one nasty 2 hander to change my 1 hand out

i use brain hacker 30 enchance and 21 rest, shamans with shield + 1h just get obliterated by me. simply cus i have 8% armour bonus from toughness and one nasty 2axe with +5 in axes cus im orc. i even pull out some nasty dmg vs warriors. and vs druids its a case of keep hitting them till they run out of mana. but if wf procs twice with crusader + 100atk power it does some seriously sick dmg.

i prefer sheilds because you can get an enchant on your weapon and sheild rather than just 1 2h weapon

I actualy have a Brainhacker with the Icy enchant, but i find i have been living longer in a Ubrs group with a 1 handed thats crap and a decent shield. I think The Brain hacker is the bomb but.. I am 36 Elemental and the rest in enhancement. So my weapon skills arent all that good. And I am Tauren so i dont get the axe bonus
i am not sure if i want to respec or stay the way i am. I want whatevver is best for PVP so any suggestions?

At lvl 40, i got two equally nice sets of weapons (some guys have all the luck one had a 2 h one with a 1 h and sheild. When solo'ing mobs near my level i would use 2h. when in group, botting (bots are stupid) or soloing something harder, i would use sheild and 1h.
