Some question.
1 - That shield he talks on the video will that stack, will be party shield and each totem will give a shield?

2 - What is that root spell?

looks like fun.

The only thing I'm concerned about for 3.1 in the 5's bracket is this will bring back the 4 DPS in full force. Right now 3 DPS 2 Healer is the prominent setup and is the best to fight against for our 4 Shaman + Healer makeup. A Single Shaman should be able to drop anyone's hp to 50% in 2 globals, making them huge eye candy for other teams instead of having a Resto Shammy.

Nice!

But wait a minute, the text "takes rogues out of stealth" in the video applies to what?

Earthbind totem or the Thunderstorm ability? I know Thunderstorm can be used while stunned, but that's totally different than making another player go invisible-->visible.

The guy has 4 mobs tagged, tags a 5th one, thunderstorms, and drops an earthbind totem to root all 5 of them. The video never really shows a rogue coming out of stealth from either of these abilities.

It's really unclear. As long as we can make rogues become unstealthed is all that really matters. This alone will infinitely help my team in battlegrounds and/or Wintergrasp!

The root effect.

I think the changes work extremely good for 4shaman folks in arena. Espesially because you keep your free shield totems up nearly constantly. But like Ellay said, if other teams have a elemental shaman as well they`re burst damage increases a lot as well. Tho if you keep your stoneclaw totems up you can become nearly invinsible.

Except against fears if you got all stoneclaws up.....
