The Tide Armor set is made to fit resto shaman and their watery healing wave asthetic. Naturally we went with a lot of blues, and an excellent mace that has a watery drip particle effect to it. The helm does have electric particle effects but we’re hoping you look past that because it looks awesome.
Some of the pieces of this set can be hard to come by, the including the shield that drops in ICC. The weapon can be crafted by a blacksmith.

We all know shaman hurl lightning bolts, but what about all the other elements? We felt we’d shoot for a more fiery shaman theme with the Molten Emperor set. Shades of burgendy, yellow, and grey come together to create this awesome shaman set.
This set requires a lot of end game Conquest and Valor points to obtain, as well as Heroic ICC which might not be easy to get a group going for. Definitely one of our more difficult to create sets.

So the whole set began with us playing around with Shaman tier 10, and we thought it’d be cool to get a more tribal straight up witch doctor feel to the whole set. Obviously we didn’t want to replace the helm but we thought the rest of the set was fair game to tamper with. The shield was admittedly is a bit bright compared to the rest, but we think it all works out in the end.
If you run ICC 10man Heroic of 25man normal and win some tokens you can upgrade the justice points version of the helm and pants, while the rest of the set can be found through various different means. You could also easily swap the shoulders for the actual Frostwitch shoulders, but we felt that was a bit uncreative.

In our earnest opinion, Dranei don’t get enough respect. Nor do Enhancement Shaman really. A match made in heaven? We think so. This set is all about raw molten fury, with what we consider the coolest fist weapons currently in the game. The shoulders were a perfect match, and the rest of the set just works. There were a bunch of cool looking helms to go with the set, but the helm off the level 60 Ragnaros went the best. There were a few matching cloaks but we felt the set looked far more intense without any cloak at all.
Most of the pieces will require some serious BC Raid farming, and just requiring you to have 2 fist weapons is a already pretty demanding considering the extreme lack of them in Cataclysm raids. If you ca pull it off though, you’ll have a hard time picking between weapon non-fist weapon upgrades and these sharp looking weapons.
