Just as an FYI, we've just put in a hotfix for Windfury Totem as follows-


* Windfury Totem will no longer trigger for any “yellow” attacks unless they are on next swing attacks, such as Heroic Strike and Cleave.

They really should make it "doesn't proc off yellow damage that comes from instants". What the hell is the point in not proccing off Slam?!

A 0.5s cast slam is essentially instant. Allowing slam to proc windfury would allow warriors to benefit from the totem more than any other class, since slam allows warriors to attack much faster than they normally would (assuming they have the rage).

Its just ganna turn shammy's into an undesirable class, which is strange coz it was in my knowledge that most GM's used them.....

I disagree. I think this hurts other classes more than it hurts Shamans. Sure their utility goes down a bit, but this is a big hit to the classes that rely on WF procs to boost their DPS in raids (I'm looking at arms/fury warriors and rogues). Shamans still have many useful totems and in many cases Resto shamans bring more to the raid than another priest would.

Shamans may just find themselves in the melee dps groups less often.

Or it just means they drop GoA a lot more often, which still adds up to some nice crit/dodge bonuses for Warrior.

~3% crit and less dodge does not a good totem make.

Sigh. I started collecting Nethers to make the 1H Mace today.

Sad, sad day. I liked 2H DPS, damnit.

Sadface indeed.

We use an open bidding system on Nethers; once you win one, you keep getting them as they drop until you finish your item. We actually had three drop last night on our Kael attempts; one finished off the previous winner, who'd started on Sunday, and when the next dropped I bid to be the next in line. Another two dropped, one in the first clear and a second in the reclear after they repopped (for whatever reason, there is this one patrol that _always_ drops a nether for us). I'll get the two off Vashj, so... well, I'm getting my nether very soon.

Well, considering it's going to mean I've consumed 12 Nether Vortexes (5 for Stormherald, 5 for Dragonlawl, 2 for Belt) I don't see why that is. =p

I could get into a more progressed guild but everyone on my server, Alliance side, won't take a dps warrior.

That and I really enjoy my guild. Got alot of good friends here.
