Shamans get one group buff which increases maximum hit points and armor class. They also gain poweful group buffs and regeneration increases depending on their choice of patron. The Shaman and the Cleric are the best buffers of the healer classes.

== Healing ==

It is intended that all healing classes will be able to heal equally but some will be better in certain types of situations. Shamans get quick heals and longer Heals. But unlike Blood Mages or Clerics they do not get group heals. It is intended that Shamans will receive Group Heals when the Shaman is revamped before the end of beta.

  • Tuurgin - Tuurgin is the spirit of the Bear. Choosing this patron increases your strength and endurance and your ability to regain endurance and health. You also gain a Bear as a Pet. Tuurgin also grants the Shaman with some powerful debuffs. The Bear is a tank pet that can take punishment but only dish out low damage.
