Enhancement Shaman Midnight Stats, Races and Consumables Guide

Stat Ranking

Agility > Mastery >= Haste > Crit >= Vers

Stat Outline

Agility increases your attack power, which is just a raw damage increase.

Haste reduces the cooldowns of your abilities, the global cooldown, and increases your attack speed.

Critical Strike increases the chance for your attacks to do double damage. It also improves the critical damage of your nature spells via Overcharge.

Versatility increases all damage and healing you do and reduces the damage you take.

Mastery increases the damage of class abilities that deal Fire, Frost, or Nature damage and slightly increases the chance for Stormsurge procs, which as of Midnight, can only proc from Stormstrike itself. Its effectiveness is boosted by Storm’s Wrath. This is a whitelist, and items such as trinkets, or Engineering bombs are not affected by this anymore.

As always, the value of stats depends on your specific gear, and as such, you should use sims to find out which combination of your items is best.

The difference between races are very minimal. Pick whichever one appeals to you. The only relevant racial is usually Stoneform, but you can make do without it.

Similarly to The War Within, there is once again a unique-equipped gem type, which is called Thalassian Diamond this time around. Realistically there are two options here:

• Using an Indecipherable Eversong Diamond and then filling any remaining gem sockets with your best simming gem, which is most likely going to be either Flawless Quick Amethyst or Flawless Masterful Peridot.
• Using a Powerful Eversong Diamond, while making sure to also socket at minimum one gem of each color:
• Flawless Quick Amethyst
• Flawless Masterful Peridot
• Flawless Masterful Garnet
• Flawless Masterful Lapis

Which of these two options is going to be optimal will most likely depend on your gear.
