Totem of Wrath stacking

[Razesdark]

So I managed to get my 3x Shaman up to level 50 today and got myself Totem of Wrath on all 3 of them.

Then I noticed that it stacked. I was quite excited!
Never expected that to happen.

But then I also noticed this post on the bluetracker:

So is this actually a bug ? Or only in the WotLK due to the changes they made to it?
What do you think ?

Aye, they do stack, but it appears that most go with NS by the time they hit 70.

[entoptic]

that blue is fucking clueless.

Well, for your average shaman, ToW isn't that awsome, so they usually get NS for an instant attack. Boxed shaman use ToW because it's never just 3%, it's 9%- 15% crit, which is huge by comparison. I imagine though, they'll limit it somehow, or else everyone will want 10 shaman in their raid.

It really does need to get reworked, along with Windfury / Wrath of Air and some other abilities as they are just too OP'd as it stands right now. But it's only beta so we'll see how things sort themselves out.

I think I read something about they stack in groups but not in raids, can't remember, and Im the last person you should listen to lol ...

[Zub]

all totems are currently party only. not raid.
The fact that they stack however is a different matter.

most totems will become raid-wide in WOTLK, but will the ones that stack still stack? who knows.

I can't imagine what your raid of 25 shamies will be like if Wrath stacks and is raid wide... 6% spelldmg x25 and 3% crit x 25 >.< that's alot of damage.
I doubt they will stack however.

Yeah, theres no way that will stack in WoTLK.

Either they reduce the buffs a LOT and make it stack ( like now )... or make it stack party-wide only

[Crayonbox]

The link is talking about the WOTLK Totem of wrath. The current totem of wrath is 3% crit and hit. They are changing it to 3% crit and 6% increase spell damage.

Because the buff is raid wide, I am going to assume that they are changing it so that it does not stack. This is of course an assumption, because a % spell damage increase buff being stackable raidwide is stupid and imba. They will change it to either raid wide non stack or stackable party only.

Will most likely be raid wide unstackable.
