Most undertuned ability in the game?

[sasofrass]

searing totem, doomguard, snake trap

[Chickat]

Hurricane and earthquake are both just awful.

[Falu]

Earthquake

[Rocksteadee]

Unleash Elements: Life, for resto shamans. It has this awesome synergy idea behind it, except it's so bad that it's a waste of a GCD to cast it to get the buffed heal. Not to mention you have to spend 2 casts to get a super heal when you can just NS+GHW every 90s.

Unleashed healing rain owns.

[Kaeth]

Earthquake. I think a level-60 hunter's Explosive Trap ticks harder (and that's another weak ground AoE whose saving grace is that it has no cost beyond a GCD).

But when the stars align on a mass AoE pull, 1 or 2 enemies might get stunned for a couple of seconds! So it's a utility spell and obviously working as intended. For a very economical 14% of the casting shaman's mana pool.

Hmmm.. manahymn/hymn of hope might be one (in comparison to manatide totem).

[Molestron]

Storm, Earth and Fire.

1. Identify 3 targets.
2. Tab targets by putting one clone on each
3. Do your rotation for the appropriate situation
4. Keep an eye on your clones buff so you notice if still have both out
5. When one is gone, start looking for another target that doesn't already have a clone on it

You know what, fuck that shit I'll just aoe with my spinning crane kick.

[Tsuna]

Sunder Armor. Seriously what happened Sunder-bro, you were my most used ability back in my warrioring days of Vanilla. *sigh* what a tragedy.

[Raiju]

Unleashed healing rain owns.

Not affected by UE.

[Fus Ro Yay]

Snake trap

snakes hitting 200 damage is cool.

[Deleted]

Not affected by UE.

Unleashes the Earthliving enchantment upon the Shaman's weapon, healing a friendly target for 3028 to 3280 (+ 28.6% of Spell power) and increasing the effect of the Shaman's next direct heal or Healing Rain by 30%.

There's a reason you always wait 1 second before casting healing rain and thats waiting for UE to come off CD.

[Demec]

Blood strike

[Tsuna]

Blood strike

Doesn't Blood strike just evolve into Heart Strike in the same way Sunder becomes Devastate. Sure it doesn't replace the spell in the book but the effect is the same, you use the better spell.

[Hyde]

Snake trap

Great for Troll council or Fallen Protectors, otherwise... yeah.

I use Earthquake and have seen quite a few other Elly Shaman using it but... definitely underwhelming and only useful for a dozen adds.

My mistake, they removed it during 5.4 ptr but must have re-added.

[Caliph]

mindflay or mind blast

[Lumiair]

Lice Cocoon . . .

[Socialhealer]

Earthquake, it hits for less at 90 than a lvl 40's main nuke spell.

this, it's been ingame since wotlk? and i never use it on any fights.

[rakhakash]

I'd have to agree with Snake Trap. I just put it down for the 0,0001% of damage because I've got the time for it. Otherwise it's a waste!
