Earthquake

[paranoidd]

Do you guys think earthquake is even worth specin into for pvp on quad box shamans?

[Eloxy]

The spell is kinda worthless imo, if very situational. If i could i would not spec it.

However, u have to spec it to be able to spend points in other trees. So u are kinda stuck with it.

I don't know. I was playing on dummies with it, and first off, it can crit. Add the knock down, and according to my tool tip it's 992dps for 8 secs. I was getting crits for over 2.5k. Multiply that x5 and you've got 5k dps without crits for 8 secs, plus the potential knockdown x5. I'm definitely going to play with it a bit.

I did a WG with it last night and 5 of those will eat through a siege tank rather quickly. Where it really proved to be useful was melee swarming in. Pop 5 magma totems and channel 5 earthquakes on top of yourself and the knockdown/damage is very effective against them. And yes, seeing them crit for 2.5k+ definitely gives potentional.

I really wanna try EOTS and put them at the end of one of the chokepoints on a bridge

[Eloxy]

hmm, im still not convinced!! =)

What would be the best way to bind/set it up with Isboxer? im just starting to play a bit around with it. Gotta make som click regions and shit to make it smooth.

No clue in ISBoxer, but I'm sure they have something to send the mouse click to a target location.

If you hate it that much, you don't have to spec it either. You just have to spend 31 points in the ele tree before you move on.

with ghost wolf not being available this seems to be a very strong option vs melee

Played around in some BGs last night and after a few, I kind of like the aoe. Really nice for melee that's on you... I play boomkin/4 ele in bgs so magma x4 + starfall + earthquake x4 + hurricane (glyphed to reduce movement speed as well) > bladestorm, blood boil, etc.

Do I think it's a good AOE vs. ranged? Not in the least. But it's very effective against melee circle dancers combined with some of our other skills.

For IS Boxer, I'd enable Send Next Click, with an Action Target Group as the target.
Check KVM, so the current window does not receive the mouse click.

Then put all of your Shammies in the AoE action target group.

I actually have AoE's on three different keys, across my assorted teams.
So those keys, send next click to the appropriate ATG (AoE_4, AoE_5, or AoE_ShA).
If I want a given toon to AoE on "5", I add them to the Action Target Group, AoE_5.
My Druids are members of this group when in Boomkin spec (Hurricane), but not when in Feral spec.
Plus this way, you can mix/match characters, and have ground target AoE's work properly.



You don't actually need to take the 31 point ability, to unlock the next talent tree.
But is there a 31st point ability in the Primary Talent Tree, that is better then the bottom ability?

Ghost Wolf is available early enough in Enhancement, it will be an option by level 82 for an Elemental/Resto shammy.

Ualaa,
Thanks for the info, I tried the setup last night for my five locks for teh raining fire or whatever you call that spell, but it didnt work.
Your guide is missing the Check the KVM portion you described above. I will do that when I get home and see if that will work.
Suggestion to edit that portion in your guide, if you originally missed it. By the way, you and your guide rock!

Example F - Ground Target AoE's
A very popular Mapped Key which showcases the power of Inner Space is a "Send Next Click" option.

If the Mapped Key calls both a Ground Target type spell and an Assist type spell for your team, I would modify an existing FTL DPS key. That way, the key will already have an FTL Assist Me mapped key built in for the toons who are not casting AoE's.

If this is a stand alone AoE key, its easiest to just make a new Mapped Key from scratch.

Set the hotkey as normal (or leave it as whatever if its already an FTL DPS key). The only changes we are making is to place a Check Mark next to the "Send Next Click" box, and choosing our target as "Group (others in) AoE on 4", which was the Action Target Group we configured during the Wizard section, towards the end of the Additional Tweaking section. My (Balance) Druids do Force of Nature on "4" via the "AoE on 4" action target group, Hurricane on "5" via the "AoE on 5" ATG, and Starfall on Shift A (but no Send Next Click or ATG for this, as there is no click targeting for this last one).

When we click our DPS hotkey or the AoE key, a mouse icon appears on every screen within the Action Target Group and moves as we move the main cursor on the current screen. When we Left Click on the main screen, the other screens receive the same click. The mouse is precisely in the same position on the other screens as the main screen, which makes getting a group within the AoE very easy. Once the click is made, the mouse broadcast is instantly off again.
