Both, you can't depend on a staff for the Shaman totems if you ever knock them down.

I'm having trouble deciding which to get too. I think the pros and cons are as follows.

Staff:

Spell pen is a major plus point, so needed for locks as there is a lot of passive shadow resistance.
Crit rating for fun destro weekend spec :P
Looks sick and after all looks > stats
less damage :(
slow speed for taking out totems, but my druid & pet are normally on totem watch ;)

1hand+OH:

more dmg, by around 30-40, cant remember the exact stats, great plus
more resil, this will also be around 30 ish, ok to have if you arent capped, means you can slack on resil gems if you choose them.
fast speed for taking totems out
hit rating, very nice to have too, but i personally rate it lower than spell pen

you're a shaman, use the shield.


but really, basic guideline -> oh/mh = more dmg, staff = more stats
decide whats more important
