I could use extreme easymode for the nerves and easy welfare epics.
Which numbskull came up with "welfare epics" anyway?!
The pain I have to endure to get my PvP kit is excruciation, I was expecting handouts ffs!

Atro chatted me up just now ingame and we talked a bit about top performing lineups - where he mentioned that GORXAR's squad got their clocks cleaned immensely in SK-Gaming's Cyclone Invitational tourney.

They got knocked down into the loser bracket early on against a 2345 in a 3:1 four match game.
They ended their tourney in the loser bracket, after two wins, when they got served a knockout 3:0 three match game loss against TriHeal with a Hunter.

Notice he has no 5s team currently. Really odd, I was wondering about this when I linked Gorxar's Armory in an earlier post.
I'm guessing against equally skilled players Enhancement's still gimped and he took it upon himself to bail from the team after this defeat?

- Flametongue Weapon damage effects for rank 3 and above now also reduce healing done to the target by 50% and lasts 5 seconds. (removed)
- Flametongue Totem damage effects now also reduce healing done to the target by 50% and lasts 5 seconds. (removed)
Guess MS is out for Shamans?

"Yes the flametongue revert was intentional. After putting it through its paces we felt like we'd gone too far on that one." -Kalgan.

Even though I'm miffed we're "losing the MS we never got", I know it would wreck some 1 on 1 scenario's terribly (Holy Priest is one, I think against Holy Dins it would've leveled the playing field).
This also means though that some combos are not out of the question again and Enhance isn't viable for 2s.

Shame, because I would've liked easymode 2k rating for Season 4.

So this is what? The third time Blizzard acknowledged a mistake? First time it didn’t took them 3 months to figure it out though..

Well if you're being realistic, which I'm trying to be despite the emo emu inside of me wanting to flip the bird to Blizz about this, the Flametongue changes weren't that hot to begin with.

You needed to have it on your offhand, so you needed to dual wield.
In 5s you run around half the time with a shield, so the uptime 0 then.
When you're dual wielding though, you can keep it up as long as you stick to your target.
Now, in most arenas - in 5s, if I can STICK to a mage, he'll be hurting a lot.

But, here's the key, we usually don't have the dps time to keep FT up for a serious amount of time since we're getting peeling by snares/roots or just outright CC'd by Cyclone->Fear->Blind rotations or worse.

Someone posted a elitist Jerks topic in the druid forum, I found its shaman friend :)

Chain Heal is the best heal in the game. It's what Prayer of Mending wants to be when it grows up.

qoute ftw :D

Yeah, but why is that bad? Remember, I've been a druid since release. I have no concept of weapon speed since mine never changes. :P
