Races & Racials

Orc is the most popular race for Restoration Shaman at 56%, followed by Dark Iron Dwarf (10%) and Dwarf (10%).

Orc at 56% usage is a clear favorite, largely thanks to Hardiness, which passively reduces stun duration by 20%, one of the strongest PvP racials in the game.

Dark Iron Dwarf players bring Fireblood, which removes poison, disease, curse, magic, and bleed effects while boosting primary stat.

Gear Strategy

The preferred secondary stats are Mastery and Versatility, with Haste as a third option. Since the item level of PvP gear scales in PvP, the real gearing decision comes down to picking the right items for these stats.

Most top players are running the 2-piece tier set (Mantle of the Primal Core) but skipping the 4-piece, opting for stronger individual items in the remaining slots.

The most popular bloodstone is Cognitive Bloodstone (16%), and the most common secondary gem is Flawless Versatile Amethyst (22%).
