I gave up reading the back and forth about 7 pages in. It’s nauseating and pointless.
25 starting stats really just does not make a difference on the shaman class. You could dump it all into intelligence and it wouldn’t make any practical difference on a shaman 99.9999% of the time. If 25 of any given stat made the difference between success/failure while playing shaman … you’re doing it wrong. Gear, skill and a complete spell book … far more important

The funny thing is if you think gear is important, you think stats are important hehe. 25 points into WIS/STA is a lot gear-wise. That on average is at least 3 pieces of gear's worth, assuming it has a higher than average WIS/STA of 8+.

You missed the point entirely. Given the dynamics of how the class plays 25 of any given stat makes or breaks nothing. It’s certainly not important enough to watch the back and forth between Loramin et al bickering about 75 endgame hp from stamina if you can’t buff the extra to max without gear vs the extra mana from the wisdom. Dude asked a simple question and ended up with the dueling banjos repeating the same talking points over and over again. Shamans make their own health/mana work for themselves however they need it to work. Total mana pool matters less than knowing how to use your toolkit and having a complete spell book. I know you know this. We have raided together. I know you know your shit man. Quit being obtuse. We got a guy who wanted to roll a new shaman. It doesn’t matter what ratio of points he puts to stamina or wisdom. If the OP really wants to know what the most important question he could be asking if you really want to min/max it shouldn’t be a question of stats but rather one of race. He’s making a barbarian. That’s fine if that’s what you want to stare at, but compared to having innate regen vs FSI (that’s it’s own can of worms) … either of those is so much more meaningful then where to dump starting stats. Having said that, I made my monk human because that’s what I wanted. Iksar better? Oh yeah. But it’s not what I wanted. If he wants a barbarian he should make one.

But when you just say "it doesn't matter", that doesn't help OP. 25 WIS/STA can help you in certain situations, and it is good to know which one will give you more mileage, since you cannot change it later. Some people do get really annoyed with their characters if they have improper starting stats. Some people get annoyed with their characters if they don't like a characters look or name. The more peace of mind OP can get with his starting decisions, the happier he will be. Knowing he put his points into the right stat will help with that peace of mind.

Loramin … I like you. You’re old guard but in this thread I vote you out-foxed and frankly just … not the best source to listen to.
Be a little more open minded and flexible buddy. You lost the logic debate here handily … like in the first 2-3 pages. Be safe.
