Except that if you mention 2h or tank shaman in the discord you will be laughed at.

Rightfully so.

Since we got zero buffs AGAIN I assume that Blizz thinks enha shaman is fine and their spot in worst 3 dps specs in the game is fine (while other 2 lowest specs have alternatives with same raid role)

I am telling you! Nerf!
I mean tank Shaman ok but 2h Enha was never really a thing outside of Vanilla. Since TBC this spec is rather a gimmick and I don’t understand people missing it so much.
Tank Shaman makes sense because there are 4 elements but we have 3 Shaman specs. Basing on mount Ele is Fire based, Enha is Wind based and Resto Water Based. Where is an Earth Based spec? Or maybe how to kill to birds with 1 stone? Make 2h Earth themed Shaman Tank. You even have spells iconic for Shaman in the past that are currently not in the game. Rockbitter, Boulder Smash. You can even make a mechanic around Sundering.
Basing the entire specs around specific mount colors is just surface level thinking.
Both enh and ele are based on the warcraft 3 shamans, while resto was based on the witch doctor archetype.
Enh and ele use the same “destructive” elements in lore, being storm, earth, and fire to attack, while resto uses the element of water to heal. Both ele and enh use all 3 elements in their toolkit.
As for the “tank” spec, it was never more than a concept. Anyone can generate a concept of a spec in an hour or less. What blizzard has done is manage to have the most well designed and deep classes in any mmo, this is the hard part. So yeah, having a concept is easy, actually making a spec out of that concept that stands toe to toe with existing specs is the hard part.
You can even base it on Ascendance theme and you get the same result.
And?
Both enh and ele have specs based on storm and fire, and spells that use all 3 elements.
Having a cd or a mount that leans towards one element, does not make ele fire themed and enh wind/storm themed.
And there is no spec that has Earth based Ascendance and mount. Connect the dots? I hope you are smart enough. Earth is usually being related with toughness and being more resistant to something. Look at Ben Grimm from Fantastic 4. Do I really have to explain such simple things to you?
