Improve Water Elemental
Increase the duration of your water elemental by 5/10/15 seconds and your water elemental heals all party or raid member by 1/2/3% of their total health every 5 seconds

Can someone confirm this or are my eyes playing trick on me?

I think someone just got out of a cave where he was hiding for a while!

Yes, it is how it's described, and it is how it'll probably works.



BTW, I'm not sure if you know, but there's also a WoW expansion coming out, it's called Wrath of the Lich King.

*sheepish*

its not that, i just never notice it now heals till this morning

i was thinking it just do extra damage like the alpha leaked info claimed

[lurked]

The alpha leaked info was that it increased duration for 15secs, and mana/health by 30%.

Then, they swapped the mana/hp increase for the 3% each 5secs.


I personally prefered the first one, but the party/raid heal for 35% of their health, is still really interresting.

[Mandible]

Massive aoe dam at some point I'd guess then.

[Araneatrox]

Yes Aoe damage... However if the AOE is going to kill the Water elemental before it heals anyone -.- Against a PvP survivability talent.

[Sardonicpoet]

Talent now restores mana instead of health.

Raid-wide.

As a healer... I think I'm in love.

Raid-wide shadow priest? Count me in. Seems Icey mages will be a good support class for raids, like disc priests, survival hunters, and affl warlocks will be (among others)

[Xerganor]

With a frost mage being able to summon the elemental twice per five minutes, this means 72% mana for each raid member every five minutes.
Best overall raid mana reg.

[Edden]

Omg mage has more than one duty in raid now! Gz.

I feel sorry for your raids.

[greenmasheen]

who is going to want shadow priests now el o el.

[Karpalo]

well one for misery unless ebonplaguebringer doesnt stack

[Blockbuster]

So the regen from a sp and from the elemental don't stack, right? And you can chainchug manapots, now that they removed the cd, right? Yes, priest will become UTTERLY USELESS because of this! QQ

It restores mana currently.
Healing would indeed be rather weird.

not at all, but you totally missed the point of the person you quoted

anyway, it seems that not only are they giving you a free respec but they're also making other trees have some sort of raid utility, allowing someone who likes being frost to be able to remain so when they want to raid without gimping the raid efficiency, this is also true for other talent trees that somewhat play the same role but in a different way, examples of this are the priest's discipline tree, that both being a somewhat efficient raid healer also contributes with some utility for the raid, and of course the deathknight with their "all trees are good, just pick the one that suits you better" kind of philosophy.
