Spirit Link was the number 1 reason I decided to level my Shaman in WLK, and then they took it out, but by then, I had already tossed him 5k Epic Flying and refused to consider that a wasted investment. As much as I love Riptide, I'd have loved Spirit Link for PvP... .-= Professor Beej´s last blog ..31 Days to Build a Better Blog =-.

Hobart, it was removed for technical reasons. It wouldn’t ever break the way it was supposed to, it would continue to link or sometimes break right away. It just wasn’t working the same way all of the time. It was so much fun to play with when it was working right though. I loved that spell.

As far as i know there is not a single ability in the game that empoweres you to inflict/direct damage to a friendly target. That’s the case for a reason.

I guess they took Spirit Link away because it allows you to put a “debuff” on two targets. In 99% of the cases the two friendly targets might be ok with that but beware of the possible drama that may result from exploiting this ability…

Camo for hunters…like stealth but was taken away since that gave too many classes the ability. Would still like to see it though.

Taking Spirit Link away from Resto Shamans was a weird decision to say the least.

Especially considering quite a few bosses these days depend on external cooldowns on the tank (even more so during progression). It all started with Sarth 3D (the non-void walker tactic), later on Mimiron and even Vezax greatly benefitted from external cooldown rotation.

But I guess the mechanic didn’t really work out too well, maybe (and hopefully) it will return in a more polished (and useful) version in a later patch.

I thought it was great to be a tanking shaman in my first early days of WoW. One of the reasons I left it till last in my fully leveling schema was the fact that my pretty shield became decorative mid-leveling. Of course, my shaman's shield is still decorative, but I live with it because my paladin's shield became useful ^.^ .-= Windsoar´s last blog ..Attack of the Loot Drama Queen =-.

I posted this in guild chat as being part of the 3.2 patch and the response was overwhealming. So here is my one required addition that would greatly increase my enjoyment of the game.

“WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE!”

“After 100 players of ur faction have put you on ignore you will be become vunerable to attack by your own faction in capital cities for periods of 30 min at random intervals’
