If you’re moving surging totem so much you need a weakaura to track pulses, you’re moving it too much
When you use totemic projection for surging totem, it also moves the utility totems. Since you’re putting the surging totem where the enemies are, that’s usually where your party is gonna be, so utility still easily being used. EDIT: mild note for windrush totem getting weird with it, but meh
You’re making mountains outta molehills
