Shaman AAs

Most people with paid subscriptions will use the Autogrant feature unless there are specific AAs they want that don't come with Autogrant.

I'm not sure what I'll get after that, but as I figure this out, I'll post it here.

Here are my suggestions if you are not on Autogrant:

Initial AAs

• At level 51 you can spend points on General abilities. Six are requred to open up Archetype abilities. The default used to be Run3 (it now goes to 7) and either Regen3 (it now goes to 55) or Metab3 (it now goes to 5)
• At level 55 you can spend points on Archetype abilities. MC3 is required for Canni IV, so there you go (MC max is now 45).
• At level 59 you can spend points on Class abilities. What we used to call Canni IV is now one of 27 levels of this AA. This is what you want.

Subsequent AAs

We'll see how this goes, but I fondly remember getting much use out of VP, the root AA (located under Archetype - do other classes get this?) and SC, the swarm pets. I'll probably get some of both and one rank of RC, and then put all the XP toward leveling, getting autogrant when I sub at ~75.
