Enhance dmg isn't that terrible really. The reason your rotation on a ret does so little is the plate, and a lot of his dmg is holy and unmitigated, but do it on a cloth class and it'll be similar dmg.
The real reason shaman are so bad in arena right now is they are sooo easy to kite. No movement boost like the 15% rets, rogues, dks have, and no freedom to cast on themselves or cleanse to remove roots and icy chains etc. Any dk or mage that fights you can spam icy chains or frost nova and you won't do any dmg.
Frost Nova
Ice Floes
20 sec cd if specced, 25 if not isn't exactly spamming. Very different from
Chains of Ice
in my opinion.
It may seem that way, though, due to
Frostbite
procs and
Shattered Barrier

I like enhancement shamans, but there class really needs some dedication to get used to. The Windfury Crits are where its at.

I used to play enhance shamanin tbc pvp. It really bothers me how ret paladins get so much attention but enhance shamans get none yet both are hybrids.
Blizzard obviosuly see ret paladins as an important pvp class now and take care of them but enhance shamans they dont care for at all. I dont play my enh shaman anymore for pvp as there is about 0 point its not even fun in bgs anymore.

From tbc to wlk, all i had is judgement of the wise, and divine storm. And seals/judge rework (it was absurdly retarded in some aspects).
Then we had nerfs, nerfs, nerfs, more nerfs, BUFF > hotfix nerf, hotfix nerf, nerf... etc, you get the idea. I would really like them to move their attention somewhere else :)
Anyways, nothing at all changed in the way we deal damage, mash your face on the keyboard and pray RNG gods.
I'm not that much into enhancement pvp, but arent 2 handed weapons (obviously more effective
generally
speaking due to low ToT) viable in wlk pvp for enhancement?
