Moving on..
0:03
The Shaman class has their own class hall now and I don't think that we've actually highlighted it on the website or anything
0:11
so I figured I'd show you guys what that was like. Ha ha ha
0:16
Somebody's having issues with the Underbelly Guards! Well, that's fascinating. There's a lot of them. Wow
0:23
That was... that was pretty intense. Wow, they phased out. Okay
0:34
So, that was new. So the Shaman, their class hall is in the Maelstrom
0:42
and once you actually get your weapon and you get the class hall all sorted out
0:49
you get Stormcall, which takes you there and it's a giant lightning storm and it looks really cool
0:56
and when you're not a Shaman and you're watching a Shaman cast a spell it looks even cooler because they just kind of like disappear in this
1:02
flash of otherworldly lightning. It's pretty awesome. This is the Shaman class hall
1:08
It's very much not done yet. This is the map that you click to go to various parts
1:13
to choose which part of the world you want to go to. Right now all we've got is Stormhelm, Highmountain, and Val'sharah
1:20
Those are the only zones that are open currently. You've got some familiar Shaman NPCs. Stormcaller Milra is here
1:27
This guy over here, this is Advisor Sevel from the Earthen Ring
1:32
Aranak Stonespeaker, of course, is here. It seems like this area is sort of cordoned into sections
1:39
Hey, look, it's Rhaegar Earthfury. Hey, buddy. You don't look anything like you do. Usually
1:48
So anyway, it's kind of cordoned into sections. So obviously down here we've got the fire area
1:54
but it's very small and there's not much to it. Up here is kind of the Earth area
2:01
And there's also something unique for the Shaman class. It's a game
2:07
And the game is great. You talk to... What wisdom do you seek
2:13
You can't see him right now because there's Torrin standing on him. Talk to Puzzle Master Lo
2:18
Puzzle Master Lo says, hey, you want to play a puzzle game? Balance with nature, blah blah yada yada
2:24
Anyway, so you understand and you begin the challenge. You have to flip all these totems until they're all water totems
2:32
And the way you do that is you click a totem. And it makes the thing go splash
2:37
So this one's actually really easy. I've done it a million times
2:43
And I won! That's great. Go me! Triumphant music. The water elementals are really happy too. But
2:56
There's different challenges every time. And it gets harder every time
3:10
And I'm not going to mess with this forever. Because that just seems like a terrible idea. But
3:18
That's just, it's unique to the Shaman Class Hall. I don't think any of the other class halls has anything like this
3:24
It's just something fun to do while you're waiting for your Q to bop. Or you're waiting for your raid team to form
3:29
Or if you just want to mess around and play some games. Which is also a viable alternative
3:37
There is a portal to Dalaran over here. So if you need to get back to Dalaran in a hurry, you can just take the portal
3:45
Once again, we've got the little gates that say that this place is clearly under construction
3:50
This area seems like it's devoted to air. And we've got more familiar NPCs
3:57
There's a McKay Firebeard. Gavin Grayfeather. Up here is Orono. Orono is a member of the Earthen Ring
4:05
I don't know what he's doing here with these rocks. But it looks like a lava lamp, kind of
4:09
And it's pretty cool. It actually reminds me of... Oh my gosh
4:17
That thing from Galaxy Quest. That was all up in the ship
4:22
And it was just floating rock things. Okay, so anyway. Over here is what appears to be the water area
4:31
This place I actually find really interesting. Because, number one, you've got your standard NPCs
4:36
There's Tribe Mother Tora, Gwatora Fourwinds. Bara the Windwatcher. These people I have not heard of before
4:43
But I haven't been playing Shaman exclusively. And then there's Mojo Dr. Zindar over here too
4:49
What interests me is the water in here. Because the water has that same sparkly quality
4:58
of the Well of Eternity up at Hyjal. And the water's in the Veil of Eternal Blossoms
5:06
So I'm wondering if that's a thing here? If that's going to be a thing
5:12
Or if that's just a cool thing that they stuck in here because it's a pretty light show effect
5:17
We're at the Maelstrom. So I'm guessing that it has something to do with that
5:22
Because the waters from the Well of Eternity were probably pulled in this direction
5:27
You know, when the original Well of Eternity went kaput. So, where do you actually do stuff with your class weapon
5:35
You go up here. To this rock that juts out over the Maelstrom itself
5:41
Which is actually pretty amazing. This is a really cool effect. And then you click on the rock
5:50
And when you click on the rock it shows you your weapon. You can even spin your weapon around
5:54
and take a better look at it if you want to. And then you can choose what you want to put your artifact power into
5:59
I'm elemental right now. There's a bunch of different weapon appearances that you can reforge to
6:08
I do not have any of them. I don't know how they're unlocked
6:12
Nobody does as of yet. I'm assuming that probably through raiding dungeons or something
6:18
I don't think it's been added necessarily just yet. So yeah, that's the Shaman Class Hall
6:25
There's not much to it right now. And compared to the other class halls, is it massive
6:32
Absolutely. It's huge. It's gigantic. But there isn't really much in the way of furniture
6:40
Or places for people to sit. Or anything that looks like this place would be an occupied space as of yet
6:51
I don't know if that's coming in the future or not. But I do know that it appears as though they've still got plenty of construction to do
7:00
So we'll just have to see where that goes in the future
