Shaman Talent and Spell Ideas. I would like people of this thread to just go crazy with ideas and just have fun with it.

Elemental Shaman Talent Ideas

  • Reduce Thunderstorm CD to 30 seconds and makes your next lightning bolt instant cast and root the target for 3 seconds.
  • Every time you get a Lava Surge proc, instead of instant Lava Burst, you get instant Elemental Blast.
  • Lava Burst hits up to 3 targets afflicted with Flame Shock.
  • Earthquake turns into Hurricane that causes nature damage within 15 yards and drenches the target, slowing them by 30% and increasing damage taken from Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning.
  • Purge now removes 2 effects but cost 50% more mana.
  • Using Feral Spirit as Elemental would be cool.
  • Reduce CD of Hex to 20 seconds and target becomes perplexed for 8 seconds after breaking, reducing damage and healing by 30%.
  • You can now summon elementals as permanent pets.

What I would do to current Talents and Spells

  • Liquid Magma Totem that also spreads Flame Shock to enemies hit.
  • Ascendance last 30 seconds and grants 10% haste and causes Flame Shock to spread.
  • Astral Shift can be used during CC
  • Spirit Wolf just replaces Ghost Wolf with ground mount speed when out of combat. Spirit Wolf would increase speed to 60% and reduce damage by 20% instantly.
  • Ice Fury hit harder on cast and reduce it to 3 empowered frost shocks.
  • Make Stormkeeper have 3 instants again.
  • Reincarnate 50% instead of 20%
  • Echo of Elements Baseline
  • Remove Earthen Rage
  • Control of Lava static 50% damage increase to Flame Shock, Lava Burst and Fire Elemental. Still have to cast Lava Burst.
  • Surge of Power causes Flame Shock to burn nearby enemies within 8 yards and Lava Burst summons a Fire Elemental for 6 seconds. The other 2 are fine.

Loved Legion when Reghar made spirit wolf mount speed!

The main thing I want is to see a full power Overcharge lightning bolt use the chain lightning animation that NPCs have. A visual showing your LB is at its strongest would be more satisfying.

I’ll be happy with more spirit wolf forms. Put I do sort of wish there was a storm ele pet or fire ele pet we could get permanent. Though I imagine I’m the minority I think most don’t like pet classes.

Pretty sure they teased a permanent elemental ability from a covenant at Blizzcon

Probably one of the few “earth” school spells with an actual animation Elemental has.

Personally, I think it should be baseline, then add a talent for its damage to splash to nearby targets, so the player could choose if it is single-target or AOE.

A lot of your other ideas are fantastic though. I love the Thunderstorm makes your next Chain Lightning a 3 sec root instant cast.

I think feral spirits should be all specs, it’s one of the few iconic shaman spells.

This was an ability for use only in Torghast (the tower endless dungeon) but you are correct.

True, I actually love Earthen Rage animation, it’s pretty cool. As a talent it’s pretty irrelevant because you don’t have to play around it, but as a shaman hurling earth spears it’s pretty sick.

And /sign on the EotE baseline, a man can dream.

Yeah I suppose the animation for it is cool and the idea of it being a sort of auto attack is nice but as a talent, I just don’t like it.

I think it was our mastery during WoD? I’m not sure. I wouldn’t mind if they add as a base spell, like, you know, just there, maybe do some minimal damage but I love the animation.
