Thread: Grounding Totem

    Grounding Totem

    Im curious of what can the Grounding Totem absorb. Im just curious since i have recently learned it can take Hunter traps and as I am leveling an Elemental Shaman it is huge that when a healer gets Scatter Trap in 3s i can eat the trap with grounding.... Just wandering what can it take... Mind freeze? rebuke? Everything what costs mana?

    Tooltip pretty self explanatory.
    It will redirect one harmful spell cast on a nearby party member to itself, destroying the totem. Will not redirect area of effect spells.

    That means repentance, engineering range gloves, SWD, mana burns, CS, fear etc.
    It costing mana isn't the deciding factor.

    no it won't consume interrupts like you listed, but repent, hoj, death grip, anything that is a spell will be redirected to the totem.

    This is correct. It will absorb Mind Freeze. I'm not sure about Rebuke.

    Mind Freeze - School: Frost
    Rebuke - School: Physical

    Apparently not. xD

    Yeah it doesn't ground rebuke, just like it doesn't ground pummel.

    it DOES eat Freezing Trap as well...which confuses the crap out of most Hunters =)
