Hey all, here are some "ideas" i brewed up at 3am in the morning. Laugh. do what you want idc, i just wanna see some opinions on these ideas. They seem to be reasonable and would follow the class history of the shaman really well.
Wind Sheer: A quick blast of Ancestral Wind conceals the shaman, lowering his or her threat to all enemies. Lasts 6 seconds. 2 minute Cooldown.
The graphic of this spell would be similar to the Priest's levitate, but once the Shaman is off the ground, a tornado like wind graphic surrounds the shaman (Like Windfury). All this happening within the 6 second mechanic time frame.
Also, The shaman class needs a new AE or improved AE spell.
For example, maybe there could be a quest line for the shaman that will eventually have the shaman Master in Fire Totem throwing. Quest titled "Playing with Fire" perhaps? Anyways, here they would be able to throw their fire totem into a crowd, similar to a rune on the floor just as a mage would do before using Blizzard of Flamestrike.
OR
They could add a new AE spell that involves fire damage.
Perhaps something like Lava Spike
Lava Spike - Channeled Spell (8seconds) - 15 Second Cooldown.
The shaman calls apon his ancestry to ripple the ground beneath, rerouting lava to spike through the openings causing fire damage to all enemies in an 8yard radius.
Please leave comments/opinions on these ideas! To me, they sound awesome, and would make the shaman class more valuable in raids for AE purposes.Last edited by

Wind Shock is being renamed Wind shear and that is going to be the new spell interrupt, since they're removing that mechanic from Earth Shock.
I don't know if shamans should get a channeled aoe like others, but I do like the idea of a spell like Flamestrike which is a single cast and then a dot (where you can then Magma Totem + chain lightning, etc).

Why cant the AE spell just be like this? The ground shakes causing rubble to stir, i mean its the perfect fit, if the others i mentioned could not work.
Of course put a channeled time on it and a range. But i mean come on Blizz =(
