What race would make the best shaman?

Orc's

My first choice when I heard about WoW was a Tauren Shaman. Then when the Trolls released I picked a Troll Shaman. Just because of looks. I regret not picking an Orc.

There isnt really  a  best shaman class. Some would say the troll, because he has the highest spirit. Others would arue that shaman also need strength and ther sats too. So i wouldnt get all worked up about what race to choose for your shaman cos it really wont matter.  I collect orcs in warhammer (we is green, green is best) so im choosing an orc shaman. Or like imanipah you could choose depending on looks.

Orc or Troll in my opinion :)!

The stats of the three races don't differ that greatly, so it doesn't seem my like there is any best class for the Shaman, but I'll be going Orc most likely. I always thought the Shamans from WC3 were some of the coolest units.

-meh, tried to edit my post, but it just made a new one.

wait wait wait wait... orcs are uglier than trolls?  i dunno, i think they are about the same.

gosh, i would go either orc or troll.  Orc shamans of WC3 were awesome, but, i love the drkspear trolls.  I imagine ill probibly make a troll first.

You know...that's a tough question.  But, as far as stats go,  Orcs and Taurens look better.  They get better STR which helps with the melee..but, I PERSONALLY have to go by the look of a char that I make.  I didn't like the look of the female orc or the female cow people.  I opted for a troll.  I can't play a char and get anything out of it if I am repulsed by the appearance lol  So, I will just find good stat boosting gear and enjoy my troll ;)

I'm going Orc for the main reason of story/background.

"What'chu want me kill mon?" Its obviously troll. Just think of the voice emotes!!!!

Hi the best race for any Shaman is the great and pure race orc .One old player tell me this the shaman orc is the best because wen you have a good axe you rock now in this moment i play one in proudmoore serber is lv 39 near lv 40 and i kick all alone only my great orgre battel axe (blue) 2hw.

Pd : sorry for my bad english i am argentino and i speak whith and orc lol

There is no best race.  The +5 axe skill from Orc isn't that helpful, and the Berserking skill for Trolls isn't all that great.  Honestly, Tauren has the best when it comes to Racial Abilities.  +5% HP, 2sec PBAoE stun, +15 Herbalism (If you go Herbalism).
