Hurricane then Cyclone and now Typhoon..

[Nekhetyo]

Ok I just noticed a thing here.

Hurricane, Cyclone and Typhoon is actually the same thing. It's just named different in various parts of the world.

In the North Eastern hemisphere a.k.a Asia it's called a Typhoon
In the North Western hemisphere it's called a Hurricane
In the Southern Hemisphere generally it's called a Tropical Cyclone or just Cyclone.

So Blizz kinda missed a few facts here and there

Although Cyclone is more or less right. Becouse it's a "swirling windstorm" which is what the animation is.
Just redesign the Hurricane we have now(it's crappy anyways) and rename Typhoon to Tsunami and we'll get it right :P

Tsunami doesnt fit .

If anything next one in line will be called Tropical storm, or maybe even just storm since they are all effectively the same thing.

Hmm good point. I guess a Tsunami would actually go to a Shaman since they have "Tidal Waves"
Got my catastrophic event lingo mixed.

Probably the worst named glyph in the whole world. How does reducing the CD of Typhoon at all revelant with changing it's name/effect =P
But good call.

Tropical storm implies very high winds and coming from offcoast. There are many different types of storms (lightning, rain, snow, etc).

Maybe we should rename Moonkins to Poseidon?

I know that was just saying it fits better(than Tsunami cause its a wave : ) with the other 3 since they are all relatively the same

Tropical storms form over hot waters and air with a high humidity. Tsunamis form when the earths crust jumps and creates a huge wave.

So I guess Shaman deserve Tsunami after all. Heck scientifically speaking they deserve all our storm spells.

Win

would love it though... "I'm Mr. T and I am a Night Elf Poseidon! What's your game!?' :P

No matter what they're all called, when CC'ing in Arenas i'm always told to use Whirlwind. Makes me lol.

Logical sequence of events places "Tempest" as the next title, not Tsunami, Tsunami will more likely fall under Shaman based on the other abilities that they have.

Other potential titles for new abilities in balance could end up being something like "Crescent Beam" "Solstice" "Paganism" and potentially something like "Phase mastery" or "Alien Gift" (Since yes, Moonkin are supposed tobe alien in nature) Also expect a talent along the lines of Ptx2% Int Ptx2% Wisdom five point talent called "Owl's Wisdom" or something similarly lame (possibly involving Spell Power, Crit or another spell stat) because blizzard is lame. (Serously, their R&D is useless when they run out of things to copy/steal)

What would be cool would be something like...

Solar Flare - Giving druids a blind (Obvious DBZ Reference).

LUNARcy - Sheer wit.

Elf and Nail - Somthing like that.

jst my 2cents
