Shaman Totems vs Paladin Blessings

[vor_lord]

There are very few pally players I know of who are happy about their end game role (and really, who can blame them) and wished for something more. But from what I've seen, there are tons of shaman, as they are or tend to be a very popular class.

Your points about enjoyment noted... but do you honestly have a shortage of paladins?

And that's hardly a fair tradeoff either: "Well yeah, paladins rule in raids compared to shamans, but playing them is like putting bamboo shoots under my fingernails!"

Shaman happiness with the raiding role is no better than it is with paladins.
