Boylston's Quad-box Shaman Rated Battleground Compendium

[Boylston]

Fire: Flame-tongue x4 I prefer simplicity, and the damage from Searing totem or magma totem will rarely be what finishes someone off. I also prefer to be able to cast Fire Nova at will without having to change totems, and FT totem has the longest Duration.

Flametongue totem does not stack with Totemic Wrath, which you should definitely have somewhere on one of your shaman, right?

If you know you're gonna get melee swarmed, I'd go ahead and drop magmas. If you're defending or just coming in range of someone, I prefer Searings. It's a good visual indicator that someone's in range as well.
