Actually, bad news there.Originally Posted by 'Hachoo',index.php?page=Thread&postID=165182#post1 65182
Totem of the Elemental Plane appears to have a proc per minute internal limiter (approx once per 45 seconds), which actually makes it WORSE for DPS than the Level 70 badge reward equivalent Skycall Totem. The Skycall totem does not have a limiter and I confirmed on my Shammies this morning that it's proc stays up well over half the time for me. The Skycall is 100 haste but can be expected to be up 50 to nearly 100% of the time (based on your underlying haste) for an average of 50-100 haste. Totem of the Elemental Plane has a 196 haste proc effect. If the Totem of the Elemental Plane can only proc once per 45 seconds, but proces immediately, and lasts for 10 seconds, thats (10/45) * 196 = 44 haste (with no further scaling as your haste goes up).
This is just an awful totem if the ppm limit stuff is true and a horrible shaft by Blizz. For multiboxers not likely to go to 25 man Naxx, there are few options. I went ahead and farmed the Skycall Totem last night on my team as it looks to be the best easily available upgrade for my team (over my Totem of the Void).
