I know it's been suggested to give shamans lightning whip off lei shen, it's a badass ability, but I have a suggestion for it that could potentially fix enhances AOE problems and still have an awesome ability like lightning whip...
So here is my suggestion:
Lightning Whip - 2-3 second cast (Reduced by Maelstrom stacks) - 5-10 second cooldown
- Deals Heavy initial damage in a cone in front of the caster and leaves a trail of lightning on the ground, dealing X damage over 5 seconds.
- Affected by stormstrike
What do you guys think? Would it be a viable replacement for current AOE? What would you do to maybe change it? (I was thinking no cooldown maybe? but that might make it not be as hard of a hitter as you would want something called lightning whip to be.)
Edit: Fire Nova and flameshock spreading would be removed, but this would do enough damage to compensate for any cleave.
