Firenova DREAM BUFF

[Eloxy]

Im on the PTR as we speak, and u can glyph it down to 3 sec cd.

With the glyph its kinda awesome tbh, especialy if u get 4 of them. Only stuff that sux is that triggers gcd. Shouldnt do that imo, since its a totem (imo more like a pet that a chr ability).
But people are saying to bliz to make it off gcd. lets see what happens

There is still hopes that theyll remove the global cooldown, but nothing is sure. would indeed be awesome tho

Are there other damaging spells that are off the GCD? Its not a totem.

It comes from the totem though

While this does sound like a fun/situational toy in PvP, WoW isn't a PvP game. The major issue with Sham is that they're way under par in terms of raid DPS. I would have though Bliz would be focusing on that, rather than adding gimmicky spells that will never be used in a raid setting (with the exception of maybe helping to clear some trash spawns, like whelps, etc).

Even if it's off the GCD, who's going to spend 10+ seconds getting a totem close enough, and risk being cleaved/stomped/tail lashed. so they can make use of a spell that does less damage than a single LB?

Enhance shamans will get more use out of this than Ele will, and they're already higher than Ele on the DPS charts.

Why does everyone assume this was an intended buff to elemental? Maybe there was a blue that I missed (totally possible).

Its a nice new option for PVE for all specs, more situational for elemental than enhancement but more opportunities to do damage is good.

And I dont see how / why they would remove the GCD from it.

am i crazy or did i see that do 5k on each guy?, so if u glyph this puppy down to 3 sec, what ull get is a possiblility to get a instant 20k damage on anyone near..

flame shock+lavaburst (warrior), sometimes brings down from 30k to 10k;... .

BOOOOOM
20k wtfBBQ,
dead.

(i hope this is how it works ;-0)

Enhancement DPS is a lot better than Elemental at the moment (still not high, comparatively, but better than Ele), so I don't see why Blizzard would intentionally buff it and ignore Ele. Then again, I always make the mistake of thinking Blizzard patches should make sense
