Shaman Changes First Reactions | The War Within Beta
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 жов 2024
- Blizzard just announce huge changes coming to the Shaman class in general in The War Within beta! 🌟
They affect all three specs - Restoration, Enhancement and Elemental. All of them are getting a raid-wide Wind Fury buff but that's not all. Huge changes are implemented in the talent class tree and all specialization trees as well. Many talents are either removed, changed or have their talent points requirement reduced. Brand new talents are introduced as well and even changes to the Hero Talents are at hand. It all sounds too good to be true and we are going through all the changes one by one in this video!
Here's a link to the WoWArticle we are going through in the video:|

so with Earth Shield and Earthen harmony you can heal faster a person that has a nasty dot ?
It's not going to be much different than now - it will heal for a tiny bit more overall especially on targets with low health but the DR is 1% less as well so basically the same. You will also get extra healing when you renew the Earth Shield if it's low on stacks but that's not going to be reliable. It's just small bonuses that we get with that spell but they are not going to be major difference.
I don’t understand how the thunderstorm talent adds another keybind like you said. If you’re already using it, now you can target an ally to cast it instead of hitting the button and having to run into melee.
Hm, I guess I didn't clarify but right now it's just a button that you press and with the new talent you will also have to target it. I guess you can use the same keybind and make a macro for it to be on mouseover but I'd like to bind it to my mouse buttons since I'm targetting it and those are scarce.
On the other hand, right now on the beta this new talent is a choice node between it and Thundershock (the thing that makes it a knock up). So I'm not sure you'd pick the new talent in this case in pve as you don't want mobs flying all over the place. If it remains like that, I would assume this is going to see use in pvp only.
@@thelegendbehindthecow oh if that’s the case I would never take it in pve, the knock up is much better. Still very happy with the changes so far!
a) skyfury mastery buff is raid wide same as windfury b) u can add [target=player] macro to use thunderstorm like it was before. no need to target anyone c) u cant pick both ascendance talents since they are shared node. u either pick 25% haste or 1min cd reduce.
Do you think the low defensive values may indicate blizzard plans on reducing all class defensive soon?
Based on what they said in the recent interview with Ion - no, I don't think so. I think they will start slowly working in that direction based on all the given feedback but imo it's not going to be soon - it will be a process and it will take awhile.
A while for wow right now could be a few weeks away. But yea, probably to late for the Beta.
Shamans should get a skill at max level "Prophecy of the beans". It will be an emote of the character throwing a bunch of beans and displaying a message "you should reroll to a druid"
Haha, harsh! I think those changes are quite nice.
Beta is messed up right now and I still see some weird choices in the trees but let's wait for them to fully implemented first
I like most of the changes and I commend blizz for finally making them, but we also needed some visual updates. I would be on the side of blizz and be like "hold on, they just gave you a spec overhaul" but we have had a lot of these visuals since Cata. There is no excuse, if you can find time for updating Warlocks so often you can get it done for Shammy. Let's not put our foot on the brake yet. C'mon blizz it's overdue!
Fair, fair! Honestly, I don't mind how bad Ascendance looks, I don't even pay attention to those things... But there's merit to what you are saying. I played priest on the beta and Voidweaver and Archon have some of the coolest visuals I've even seen in game. Some shaman love in that direction would be more than welcome!
looking forward to testing them out after the next build
Same, can't wait! Beta is a mess right now though, like 10% of everything went in, the rest is just empty nodes and abilities :D
so excited. thanks for the video
Cheers mate, thanks for watching! I think we are all excited, can't wait for this to be on the beta =)
That buff is not for one person though, right? You just CAST it on the target but it spreads to the whole raid/party, sort of like Power Word Fortitude for priests.
YES! It's raid wide and it doesn't matter which group that person is in :)
@@thelegendbehindthecow but how auto attacks work on caster specs?
@@vanguelisk They won't - it's just melee buff (like Wind Fury was) although hunter auto attacks should benefit from it too. I'd assume it won't affect pets
@@vangueliskcaster specs would only benefit from the mastery buff sadly
Love the content! But if I could wish, chapters would be awesome!
Noted! I do chapters for the other videos but this one was full improvisation. I could probably still break it down a little bit
Wind shear is ur kick and u should kick in m+ and 15%-30% dmg reduction of that school is huge. Kick a fire/shadow/arcane... spell and u get 15% reduction of that typ.
Well if you kick something, you interrupt it so you are not going to get hit by that same spell and it's questionable whether or not there's the same type of damage coming your way. Not to mention that if that's the case it should be interrupted as well :) That said, since many packs have several of the same type of mobs, you could actually get some benefit from the wind shear but I'd rather see a more reliable defensive than this tbh..
Changes look decent wolvy! For the most part anyway. Still got time for minor tweaks
Yep, and I guess even bigger shakes are coming in a future patch so big hype! Not much to do in game right now but I hope you're planning a return before TWW :)
Awesome vid!
Thanks mate, cheers!
0:07 Hey look I'm nobody :)
Yeah, hi, that's me =)
The enhance changes are pretty meh imo :(
Yeah, I was expecting a bit more too, especially seeing the walls of text for the other specs and then you get like 4 lines for Enhance just so they can say they didn't completely forget it. I do agree that the spec is not in a bad spot but there's definitely a lot of things that can be changed and improved so let's see what actually goes live with the next build and what will these few talents make or break
