hello there..
i dont know if this has been mentioned before (excuse my bad spelling) and i dont know if the stuff im gonna say has already found a solution.. but here it goes..
we all know that flametounge totem + totem of wrath are both fire totems meaning u could only use 1 of them at any 1 time.
and we got some talents in both enhance+ele tree to improve flametounge.
so is Totem of Wrath still got the upper hand against flametounge totem (with all of its improvements) or not. ( me r fail at math >_<)
speaking PVE wise
EDITED: clarifications

Techically, you can. Use the Flametongue weapon enchant.

Good thing the totems provide bonuses raidwide now, eh? :)
But yes, Fire never really had a good totem. But, WotLK actually fixes that! Since Windfury Totem doesn't give a weapon-buff anymore, Flametongue can give a weaponbuff in form of extra fire damage to a weapon, or spelldmg for casters. While sharpening stones and poisons MIGHT be better, weapon oils MIGHT give some better stats too. Still, the point is that it's a free - and useful - buff for both melee and casters.

Oh god, please no.
I'm sure I heard something about that being removed though, as it should.

It also makes having multiple shamans nearby more needed

Flametongue is going to give
alot
of spellpower to compensate for 3% crit and 6% increased spelldamage.
Wrath is just
better
in every way.

what i think is ... for the early raiding contents Flametounge totem will benefit u more than ToW due to your gear lvl .. and as u progress to end content ToW will be your 1 and only choice to give out your best dps since your gear lvl is high.
EDIT: Typo

In its current form, Totem of Wrath gives 3% crit and 100-160 spellpower (based on rank). Flametongue doesn't even give the same amount of spellpower, so Totem of Wrath is still supreme - as it should be.
Still, Totem of Wrath doesn't make you give fire damage on melee hits, but I can live with that :P
