-It would be dull and not working as a totem? Who said our stun had to be a stun to begin with? Why does a stun have to be tied to a totem? Dull as in competitive maybe?
-It is dynamic because you can use it with TP, giving it the same effect as Shadowfury, which you yourself said would be dull? Kinda contradictory on your part, isn't it?
-So instead of instantly throwing an aoe stun into apporaching enemies, or instantly aoe stunning them as they have reached you (similar effect to a frost nova), you need to set it up? Not seeing that as a big advantage.
Tbh, CPT to me looks like the weakest stun, only rivaled by the new warlock's spell Cataclysm (because failing at designing one ability encourages making another just as dumb, right?), though warlocks have Felguard stuns and Shadowfury at least. And I guess Remorseless Winter could be better, though I still think it is easier to make it work then CPT.
From what people say, I doesn't appear that shamans are in need of immiment changes pve-wise (except for enh specifically maybe a more comfortable way of aoe-ing maybe), but pvp-wise there's much that could be better (imo). I am kinda underwhelmed to see not a single patch change for enh at this part. Apparantly enh/shaman pvp isn't on blizzard's radar at all.
