I am tired of close range fighting. I have a druid kitty/healer, enh shaman, pally prot/ret and dk :(
I would like something like a mage. Stand back, throw spells, and *!@#$ at the tanks and healer lol
My mage is only 45 and I just can't grind any more.
Boomkin or ele shammy are what I am thinking about.
Do both of these require massive epics to even get started?
Which is more fun?
Is one liked more in groups over the other?
thanks for any help I want to get going at chunking and whining :)

Elemental Shamans are really easy to jump into heroics and naxx with. They really don't require a lot of gear to get started. I don't know if boomkins are so easy to start out at 80 with, or if they're more fun, since I've never played them. Either class will give your raids that 5% spell crit buff, and druids get MotW and I think a spell haste buff. Shamans get BL, which can validate your raid spot right there, but only if there aren't any other Shamans in your raid. You also get totems, but there's a lot of overlap with other shamans and other classes' buffs. Ele does get totem of wrath though, which everyone loves.
All in all, the one that is more valued in raids is always going to be the one the raid doesn't already have. I think if the raid doesn't have any shamans or druids, though, they'd take a shaman over a druid, unless they also had no mages and absolutely needed decurses.

I guess I will try ele shaman but I dont know.
They both will be a big change from what I have been doing.
what is BL?

Blood lust. I forgot you might be alliance, and that the alliance has shamans now. I'm a bit behind the times. For you, if you are alliance, it would be called Heroism.
