It seemed to me that 70% chance to avoid spell pushback was better than 70% reduction in spell pushback... but maybe that is just emotional flavor.

So i am now wondering how vital Eye of the Storm is. I am considering more of a pvp perspective than a pve perspective. How bad is that one second delay? I guess the question is whether the .7 sec is worth it for 3 points?

I have considered a spec like this . Link is to /wotlkwiki website. There are two points left and i am not sure if they would go into Instant Ghost Wolf, Totemic Focus, Earth's Grasp, Elemental Shields, or of course Eye of the Storm.

The 45% reduction in mana from shocks and the 1 sec off shocks seems pretty sweet.

:huh: :whistling:

5 points to get 1 second from a cooldown always seemed like a waste to me - especially since shocks aren't your staple form of damage (lightning bolt / chain lightning is). Even when you conisder the Flame Shock / Lava Burst combo, Lava Burst has an 8 sec cooldown, so a shorter cooldown on shocks is wasted there.

I hear what you're saying about EoTS with the new pushback mechanics - but with most of our DPS spells being 1.5 - 2 second spells already, having next to no pushback on them (0.3 secs max) seems pretty good to me. I would probably move points into Unrelenting Storm if it doesnt pan out that well live.

Cheers,
