Get rid of starter totems!

[Jubber]

Not sure if people already knew this or not but 3.2 added a low level quest to free you of your starter totems and gives you a generic relic instead. Now we can finally free up a few bank slots.

That is fabulous news. I must have skimmed over that in the patch notes. Thanks.

Can we get this from our home city shaman trainers, or will any trainer give it to us?

This is incredibly underwhelming

It's not earth-shattering, true, but it is useful. (If nothing else.)

Does this mean that for those who boosted a shaman using RAF and didn't visit a trainer....they won't need to do the totem quest that have them running all over Azeroth?

I'm not positive, but I think that some of the beginner quests give Rank 1 of certain spells and you'd need to do the quests to get those ranks. Course, I could be wrong.

Doing those quests - especially if the shammy in question has not hit 60 yet and is still under RaF - are worth it. You'll get crazy-good xp from them. (That can mess up your team if you're trying to keep them all at the same xp, though.)

well i thought it have been like this a long time. not skipping the quests but the part that you dont have to have the 4 totems on you or in the bank. All totem relics functions as a air,earth,fire and water totem. its been like this for ages..

EDIT/ ahh.. didnt see the point.. just woke up. ok a totem relic when lvling is a good thing.

[MarkHR]

Turned the quest in just because I could.

It required totems of earth, water, fiire, air to be in my bags which, on completion, were replaced by a single totem. The quest is not on wowhead yet though.

[Jubber]

Yeah unfortunately you are required to do all the starter totem quests to get the relic. You can get the quest from any of the shaman trainers.

For some reason the only trainer that didn't give me the quest was the one on the 2nd level in the exodar. However I just hopped down and was able to get the quest from the other trainers.

Not great news, but I am just glad I don't have to see the totems anymore everytime I head to the bank. Plus the extra couple slots come in handy again.

That's pretty neat actually. It always annoyed me that I had to waste 4 bank slots.
