Shaman Ascendancy Mechanics


Rage Regeneration

The Shaman is exceptional at generating Rage stacks, which is helpful for skills and attacks that cost Rage. In addition, having high Rage stacks means you will always have increased Attack Damage.

Maximize Augment Slots

With the Wisdom of the Maji node, you can benefit significantly more from augment slots in your weapons and armour. Make sure to take the additional effects of runes into consideration when crafting gear.

Shaman Base Class

Ascends from the Druid

Druid Splash Art

To become a Shaman, players must choose the Druid as their starting class and complete his Ascension Trials. The other ascended option of the Warrior is the Oracle.
