Classes

Shaman

  • Weapon imbues and Weapon totems can now be used at the same time.
  • Enhancement
    • Stormstrike damage reduced to 100% weapon damage (was 150%), and cooldown increased to 8 seconds (was 6 seconds).
    • Mental Dexterity: Intellect to Attack Power conversion ratio reduced to 33/66/100% (was 50/100/150%).
    • Maelstrom Weapon now grants 20% reduced cast time and Mana cost per application at all ranks (was 4/8/12/16/20% reduced cast time and Mana cost), and chance to activate now increases with rank and activates 6/7/8/9/10 times per minute (was 20 times per minute regardless of rank).
    • Maelstrom Weapon tooltip updated to display the Shaman’s % chance to activate it based on their Main Hand Weapon’s speed. For example, if the Shaman has the 5 points into Maelstrom Weapon and has a 3.6 speed weapon it will display a 60% chance to activate on swing, compared to if the Shaman is wielding a 2.0 speed weapon it will display a 33% chance to activate on swing.
