at 70, with what only 20 points remaining, its the wisest thing to go resto.
it will increase ur survivability as enhc by a good amount.
ele cant be viable again, coz ele is again WAY too gear depenedent and so is enhc and they dont use the same gear.
so u cant deck urself out in 2 diff sets of gear at the same time.
resto talents rather have buffs which are useful irrespective of ur +healing and stuff.
like quicker heals, no interruption, increased chance of landing attacks (yes melee attacks too), instant heals and stuff.
so, resto is a good option at 70 to go with enhc.
tho ele/resto again looks like the best option imo coz they use the same gear!

but im a die-hard enhc sham and will never spec ele. so that way to each his own i guess :)

have fun!

im enhance/resto because it can get my occasional heal faster during better and cheap mana cost for all my totems

definitely go enhan/resto becuz you live "ALOT" longer and your totems coast less which is nice. and your chance to hit is increased

Ele/resto is going to give you the most bang for your buck with a 40/21 split to give you the instacast nature spell AKA instacast chain lightning with elemental mastery, or a badass insta heal when you need it the most. The reason, as stated by others numerous times, both of these allow you to use the same gear, not to mention, you will have a lot more armor as an ele than enhancement because of the use of a shield. Even if you are swapping in pieces of leather and cloth, a shield can give as much as an entire set of mail. So you will have a higer DPS, more mana, more armor, and higher survivability with the resto backup. Hope this helps!

As a 70 Shammy for almost a year, it can be said that the Shammy is really a jack of all trades and the master of none. Its better to be resto for non heroic isntances so you can heal or backup heal and do ranged attacks. It takes time to learn to use a shammy and even with good gear you can only hold your own. I suggest RESTO for fun then when 70 Enhanced due to the limited gear that will help you as a ele or resto.
