If only we got 25% additonal lb spell damage, a stacking buff from crits across our party, and some kind of instant knockback mana restorer.

OH NO WAIT!

Its not the end of the world lads, wait and see the final design before lighting them mob torches
They had to add the damage buff because they nerfed the crap out of the lightning bolt coefficient. It's like me taking your computer away and then giving it back to you all wrapped up for your birthday. Surprise!
79.4% to 71.4% isn't nerfing the crap out of anything (same coeff as Smite now).
Yah, and the 10% frostbolt/fireball coefficient nerf didn't hurt the mages "jaw dropping" damage either...

It was higher than most dps spells with the same casting time to compensate for the lack of a debuff like CoShadows and scorch/ect. They nerfed it and added the damage% buff to compensate for the loss of dps shaman would suffer through the coefficient nerf. 8% on your coefficient is a pretty big loss to your dps, especially to a class that depends so much on crits and has 200% crit damage rather than 150%. It's ok though, they gave it a 20% damage increase through talents. It's going to hurt enhancement and resto lightning damage, but not elemental.
