Enhancement Shaman Survival: Save Mana for the Exit

Keep enough mana for Healing Wave, Earth Shock, or Ghost Wolf, and drop Tremor Totem before fear reaches the group.

Emergency order

  • Hold Earth Shock for a heal cast, because spending it for damage leaves the caster free.

  • If Stoneclaw attracts the add, move into the exit lane before it turns back.

  • Use Healing Wave mid-fight when HP enters a lethal range, and heal after the fight once the pull is stable.

  • Use Ghost Wolf only outdoors, with clear ground and three seconds available for the cast.

Fear rooms and dungeons

  • Place Tremor Totem before a fear pack so its next pulse can remove Fear after it lands.

  • Let the tank take the second mob because off-tanking it drains the mana needed for Healing Wave.

  • If the healer skips a drink, keep your Healing Wave mana for the next pull.

Leave now

  • Leave when mana cannot cover Healing Wave plus Ghost Wolf while the room is still alive.

  • Official Hardcore disables Reincarnation. Never count it as part of the exit plan.

  • Leave if a caster pack lands before the totems are down.

  • Leave an indoor fight early because Ghost Wolf cannot create the outdoor escape route.
