"We are planning a lot of exciting content for patch 3.1.0, and we are doing a three-part preview series on upcoming class changes. This is the first in the series: Priests, Rogues, and Shaman. Please keep in mind, that this list is not at all comprehensive, and subject to change."
Shaman (Skills List ('http://www.mmo-champion.com/index.php?page=660') / Talent + Glyph Calc. ('http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?shaman'))
Chain Lightning – now jumps to 4 targets but does less damage. We wanted to make the distinction between Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning more clear. Storm, Earth and Fire – this talent now increases all damage done by Flame Shock, not just periodic damage. Spirit Weapons – now reduces all threat, not just melee threat. Unleashed Rage – reduced to 2 ranks, now also increases your critical strike chance with melee attacks by 1/2%. Totem streamlining: The Mana Spring and Healing Stream Totems have been combined. The Disease Cleansing and Poison Cleansing Totems have been combined. We are also working on giving Enhancement and Elemental more PvP utility.I really like the idea of having combined totems, 4x health+mana regen will be awesome! be interesting to see what glyph changes they make if any, such as chain lightning hitting another target (5 targets?!) or having a glyph to increase the amount of healing and mana with the new totem.
Sorry if this has been posted already, only just noticed it myself. Feel free to remove this thread if it has.
