First Report

Ok, here's a link to the first "full" report. (I am fully aware that my web design fu is negative. Hopefully CSS will save me someday.) This structure of report should mostly stay the same (I hope). For each class I've generated 4 spec/build reports, one specialized for each talent tree (31 points or more in a given tree is considered specialized) and overall. Each report lists the top 10 specs, and the top 10 builds within each spec. There's way too much information for me to come close to discussing this, so if you find something you want to discuss, blog about it and let me know and I'll mention your blog here.

1st Million - Shamans

19,581 shamans, the least represented class at 70. Here we go:

1. 0/5/56 - 2922 (14.92%)
2. 40/0/21 - 1753 (8.95%)
3. 41/0/20 - 986 (5.04%)
4. 0/40/21 - 924 (4.72%)
5. 0/42/19 - 767 (3.92%)
6. 0/11/50 - 596 (3.04%)
7. 0/0/61 - 575 (2.94%)
8. 0/41/20 - 453 (2.31%)
9. 0/7/54 - 363 (1.85%)
10. 0/45/16 - 301 (1.54%)

2 Elemental specs, 4 Enhancement specs, and 4 Restoration specs. Unsurprisingly, the only single tree spec is in Restoration (go go healer!). Overall the spec breakdowns are:

• Elemental - 5145 (26.2%)
• Enhancement - 6565 (33.5%)
• Restoration - 7852 (40.1%)
• Unspec'd - 19 (0.09%)
• Nospec'd - 3 (0.01%)

Pre 2.1: Most Popular Builds - Shaman

852 Shamans, the lowest represented class in the small Pre-2.1 sample. Let's take a look.

1. 24 characters: 0/5/56 - Restoration with a smidge of Enhancement for a bit of extra mana.
2. 14 characters: 0/5/56 - A minor variant of 1, swapping in Totemic Focus for Nature's Guardian.
3. 8 characters: 0/0/61 - Gives up the Enhancement to keep both Totemic Focus and Nature's Guardian.
4. 6 characters: 0/5/56 - Another variant of 1, only 1/3 Focused Mind in order to get 2/2 Improved Reincarnation.
5. 4 characters: 0/42/19 - Our last build is Enhancement-oriented instead.

56/852 Shamans, that's 6.5%. A healthy percentage compared to other classes.
