Woo! About friggin' time their survivability was addressed. I remember complaining about this, and other classes pointing at "Toughness". That's a slap in the face; what other non-tanking class is forced into place 5 whole points into a 10% stam increase? One of the reasons Shaman are squishy is because dual-wielding takes off the 6-8k armor a shield would provide.

Although, to people claiming that Enhancement hasn't had a buff in a while, Fire Nova was a big buff to Enhancement AoE DPS, and the Flame Shock haste mechanic is a buff to single target DPS.

Why would someone say our survivability is lowered by not using a shield because of armor? Do you even raid? Or pvp for that matter? Shield won't stop the damage in raids because 99% of it is magical, and in pvp ArP is so popular it is getting ignored anyways.

What we need is to not be 5k lower than a rogue in health. 10k lower than a fury warrior...

The 5% flurry buff translates into a 2% or so dps buff which dosen't begin to address our issues with extremely low health or the fact that we are 10-20% lower than other hybrids not even mentioning pures.
