I'm currently trying out a totem rotation which uses glyph of stoneskin+stoneskin totem to proc the damage shield on 3/4ths of my team. At the end of the rotation, I stagger tremors.
I'm not sure if it's worth it. The shield doesn't last terribly long (you CAN re-cast the sequence every 20sec, though) and it sucks up some GCDs. I think I'd rather have one GCD that plops down all totems and then follow that with some other staggered tremors. Part of the problem is that I don't see how much damage it's absorbing (due to its nature).
I keep wondering if I might do better with the EM glyph (20% damage reduction every 3min). It's probably a better arena glyph, but I'm trying to stay focused on BGs.
Krusch/others-- any thoughts on this Glyph and its usage now that we're 85?

I use TAB to target enemies. I also have enabled Target Nearest Enemy in the Keybinding Options to prevent tab-targetting totems/pets/mirror images.

Spec that i use with glyphs:
3 of my shamans are talented with:

1 of my shamans is talented with:
http://www.wowhead.com/talent#hGGGGRfkkZbhMZb
For glyphs i use:
Prime
Major
Minor
I have swapped on the shaman that has Totemic Wrath in his talents, Glyph of Thunder for Glyph of Healing Stream Totem. This totem provides +195 resistance to Fire, Nature and Frost spells.
Tip:
If you drop a Stoneclaw Totem 2 seconds before the arena gates open, you will keep the absorbing shield for its full duration, even if you drop any other earth totem afterwards. So you have a shield + tremor totems for example up. The cooldown on Stoneclaw Totem is around 12 seconds. Please correct me if the cooldown is longer, im not sure anymore.
