Did everyone see the totem talents had their text changed to remove their health amounts? Does that mean totems are unkillable?

possibly! it would be very exciting if true.
it oculd just be bad data mining though.
Gust of wind? More like, Gust of win!
Us shamans can rejoice! I for one, look forward to getting myself in and out of trouble with the press of a button!

No I do understand what you were saying. And I am not going to say you didnât understand me that blizzard nerfed an ability because they didnât want any spec of shaman considered a pet class.
I have always thought with how ele played it needed a tank like warlocks get. I was just saying that wont happen because blizzard doesnât want any spec of shaman to have a pet. I mean blizzard refuses to give the other two specs of mage fire and arcane a pet. And frost has had its frost elemental a long time. So yea I do like the idea just saying it wont happen.

They are nerfing grounding totem by limiting it to work within 30 yards âŚwtf.
Lasso CD increased to 45 secsâŚ
Might just be the time for a visual update Shaman has long been in need of. Especially those LS and ES effects. Not to mention the unfinished lightning bolt and chain lightning they could never finish in Legion.
And god please, let me have a new Windfury that doesnât look like a wimpy fart. I want my violent tornado back.

I want to go back to the visual of vanilla/tbc wf visual during that time was awesome.
Iâd let lasso and grounding be nerfed is ghost wolf 
really is gonna allow all that spells on the run and totems donât have hp.

When you have spells like Convoke , grounding is what saves the party in BGâs . Not sure why there is 30 yard range when most range spells are 40 yards. Itâs just stupid.
i dont think convoke is going to be as strong in DF as in Slands, and if the trade off is that grounding totem cant be sniped, that is a huge net gain imo.
Gust of Wind isnât near as good as Spirit Walk for Ele. @ me all you want boys.
We need that root break!
@firewolf gust of wind
Its going to be wild fast capping though with Spirit walk and the ghost wolf talents. gonna literally go like 125% movement speed ?
Howâd they nerf lasso?
Its more of an adjustment.
They made it baseline for the entire class and increased the cd by 15s. In contrast Tstorm is basline as well and cd reduced by 15s.
Honestly a good change imo
Yea I knew about it being a pvp talent before but def missed clicking the cd increase. I agree that thatâs a fine trade lol.

Lasso being baseline infinitely better than 15 sec on the cd.
Ele looks decent I came up with a build with focus primarily on sk thunder rod being a one minute go with nature swiftness making it instant cast but also having a lot of rot pressure through flameshock talents. Pretty happy we can get most of eles leggos from shadowlands at once such as windspeakers skybreakers dre with a build focused primarily on the strong sk burst.
Iâd like to move away from the one dimensional damage profile we have now all in lavaburst and fs begging for dre procs. Itâs not as fun as before

Iâm actually kinda bummed that they buried this talent where they did. Makes it a bit harder to get to if you want max self healing.
@pvp elesâŚ
Im hearing from alpha testers that the lava burst right side of the tree w/ flux melting is doing much more damage than double stormkeeper build. Anyone got alpha to confirm?
