WoW Forever Enhancement Shaman BiS at level 20
Summary
This is the site’s suggestion for Enhancement Shaman at level 20, not an official list: we use our Enhancement stat weights to score every item a Shaman can use with a required level of 20 or lower, and pick the best one for each slot. The beta already goes past this level: the current cap is 30.
Stat priority of the list, per point: Strength > Agility > Attack Power > Stamina. Percentage stats count too, per 1%: critical strike and hit. On weapons, two-hand weapon DPS matters most.
- Main hand:
The Axe of SeveringClassic data (not in the beta client) - Legs:
Brawler's Leather Pants - Chest:
Brawler's Leather Armor - Head:
Defender's Leather Hood
4 of the 15 pieces are new in Forever and all of them have a known source.

More on Enhancement Shaman
Reasoning: Enhancement in Classic Era has no dual wield: it is a slow two-hander with Windfury Weapon, which adds two extra attacks with weapon damage, hence the heavy weight on speed. 1 strength = 2 AP; agility gives crit and dodge; crit is worth more thanks to Flurry. Intellect and spell power count for Shocks and totems.
Heads up: the beta is capped at level 30 and the weights are indicative, tuned for level 60 with no simulations behind them. Sources come from the WoWSims Forever database and, for items that already existed in Classic, from the Classic 1.12 database (CMaNGOS Classic-DB, marked "Classic data": they may change in Forever); an item without a source may not be obtainable yet. Set bonuses and procs are not scored. Everything will change with each build.
Treat these lists as a starting point: your talents, enchants and play style may make another piece the better pick.
