The close range melee patron. Strength and endurance are Tuurgin's specialty
Balanced between melee and spell casting. Speed, dexterity and strength are gifts that Rakurr will grant you.
Fiery destruction. Shaman of Hayatet dislike engaging in melee combat and prefer to stand back and rain fire down on their foes.
In addition to the three Patron spirts, the Shaman can form bonds with three hostile spirits to augment their fighting abilities. Shaman's Spirit Bonds are much like a Bard's, Rogue's, or Warrior's fighting stances. Each bond has a significant purpose and will have to be used in the appropriate situations. These bonds will be available to the Shaman after they have completed the corresponding quests.
* Krigus the Fly: This bond gants increased spell damage.
* Nag-Suul the Viper: This bond increases melee damage and gives you a chance to drain life when struck by melee attacks.
* Skamadiz the Vulture: This bond adds additional melee damage and a chance to drain life from your enemy when you melee or cast spells.

| "Gains a portion of his spells from bonding with a patron Spirit. You choose, via vision quest, which of the patron spirits you will follow, and become a shaman of. Your choice will determine what you bring to the table. Did you choose the patron spirit that will provide you with haste and accuracy, or the one that provides endurance and endurance regeneration? Shaman who follow Hayatet the Phoenix provide amazing fire resistance and fire counter sheild...facing the dragon w/o this amount of Fire resistance will certainly prove more difficult...do you know a Shaman of Hayatet? I think I might prefer to group with a Shaman of Tuurgin - The damage buff that the bear spirit provides is way nice." - Talisker
