Do shaman changes feel a bit underwhelming?

[Martsus]

As for resto, yeh, they do feel a bit underwhelming. Still no cool iconic NEW spell, still the same cast-based crap(which will hopefully be less bad in cata), still no oh-sheit button, just a few I-do-this-and-then-my-next-heal-is-20/25%-stronger and lol-I-cast-2.5sec-lightning-bolts-for-mana. For PVP then.. Most importantly we lost cleansing and the total ability to cleanse poisons which will hurt our defense pretty badly.

nature's swiftness doesn't count as an "oh-sheit" button?

Affected by MS olol.

Compared to pain suppr., GLYPH of salvation, barkskin and others that's kinda crappy. Paladins got the same crap basically by using Divine Favor(or whatever the 100% crit thing is called), holy shock and then using an insta-FoL.

The only good oh-sheit button the Shaman can get is the Skeleton key. Way to go to sacrifice a glyph-slot for some crappy 4k shield and a trinket slot for a 6k shield but oh well.
