I would assume that this totem, despite the 20 min cooldown, would be half the power of, say, a mages Water Elemental or a Druids treants. The fact that shaman not only get two summon spells, but they are baseline rather than talents, makes it quite inapropriate to make them too powerful.

My money is on roughly 200 damage per hit, about 2 second speed, and roughly 1000 hitpoints. Not amazing, but a nice boost =) Plus at level 70 I think the only thing these could be used for it a little DPS boost in PvE. They would likely be too weak to use in PvP.

Also, unfortunately, the cooldown is 20 min. which means that they cannot be use in the arena. I think the real reason they were put here is more for novelty than real effectiveness. Many other classes get a summon (Mages, Priests, Druids, Locks) so why can't shaman?

But I have a question as well;
Does destoying the totem destroy the elemental? Hope not lol

The totem's health is based off of a percentage of it's caster's health.
"Fire Elemental Totem: This pet will now come into the game with full health and mana, including that gained from a percentage of its master's stamina and intellect. It will also now properly get increased stamina from a percentage of its master's stamina. "

I will comment on whether or not the +spell damage or Call of Flame has a bearing on it's attacks after I hit a high enough level to use it.

I don't actually have this yet, and i was wondering, can u have a fire elemental AND an earth elemental out at the same time? I ask because you can have one of each different element totem out at the same time.

Commento di 120518

I just hope in this up comming expansion they'll add ranks to them and add water and air elemental totems that would be sweet. I betcha there already trying to use this idea any one have any idea's on the water and air elementals would do that'd be sweet also. Woot Go Shamans!!!!

Commento di 143293

If your lucky he'll crit 1.1 fire novas

Commento di 143293

Also just like any other fire totem it is affected by your spell dmg.

Commento di Flygplats

Since it only has 20 minutes CD, it should be usable in arenas? If im not mistaken, 30mi CD's can't be used, but 20 minute CD's can.

Wondering since i've never ever seen a shaman use this vs. me in the arena.

edit: thanks for the replies, downrate me plox! :)

Commento di 202908

Are they planning on implementing a small pet bar to the summoned elementals? I know we're not a class defined by having pets, but I see no reasy we shouldn't be able to have some control over our summons if priests's shadowfiends have been given the same petbar.

Commento di darkakuma

This has a 20min cooldown, so you cant use it in arena... Arena Requires Less than 15min...

But in patch 3.0.8 they are changing the "Glyph of Fire Elemental totem" -reduces the cooldown of your Fire Elemental by 10 min... meaning you can use it in arena...

This info is from mmo-champion.com

It would be interesting to see if Blizzard could somehow work in elemental totems of other types, such as water or wind. Water would likely be either a heal elemental or ranged DPS with a Replenishment type effect. I don't know what a Air Elemental could possibly be, maybe melee DPS?

Commento di 161867

This spell would be nice if worked like pets. Every other class in the game controls their summons except shaman.

Its effects seem to be a mix of Magma Totem, and Fire Nova, plus strong single target hits. A very nice totem in itself.

Its flaw is that it has no pet bar to attack the target you want, it wont even target your target like shadowfeind or treants. You drop it and it will attack some mob 100 yards away rather than the one in front of you. It also has a short leash and is stuck in one spot. It also has a long ass CD. 20 minutes its uncalled for.

(offnote-earth elemental sucks too, Blizz, plz come to your senses and balance. I can see a potential problem with Feral Spirit, but just make it so the two can't be used together).

Also, btw. Shaman are not the only class to control multiple pets, druids and mages will be at it as well.

Commento di 305160

its just like an army of death for shaman

Commento di 338095

I have a friend that lives inside my totem. You want to see him? He's shy, he only comes out once every 5 minutes.

He's the only thing that keeps the wolpertingers at bay.(##RESPBREAK##)12##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##

Commento di 34578

Improved the scaling (hp, damage, mana) of the Fire Elemental in 3.1, most importantly though, they are decreasing the mana costs of his spells while increasing his mana pool. That means he won't use two spells and then go OOM anymore.

Commento di Arlond345

Wait the cool down on this is getting lowered to 10min in 3.3, but the glyph lowers the cool down 10min and it hasn't been changed yet, so is this going to be instant CD with glyph?

Commento di Veum

No way m8, the reincarnation CD is also beeing reduced down to 30 minand the totem from dire maul and the talent is also getting "nerfed", tho it will "only" have a 10min CD making the 7 pointer very nais for BGs (We'll be like the DKs was at the start oof wotlk XD). with the talent i belive one will get a total of 20min cd aldo you are sacrefising 7 points just to be able to ress after u die so i belive that the only shaman that might do this would be some pvp restos and prob some eles that wanna reborn and blow ppl out from the LM flag in AB, =)

Enyhows this spell is kinda useless in the current endgame raid TOC since it has a 20min cd it can only used 1/2 times trough out the instance pending on the time you use to deliver loot, wipe, etc. with no failing i used this on jaraxxsas and had it ready just b4 anub died so id rather use magmatotem, and with the new patch firenova will just apply to your current totem instead of creating a 2nd.

Commento di 406510

anyone know if using this guy for Leeeeeeeeeeeeeroy!; will you still get achievement since when used, you cant loot corpses ?

Commento di 631719

Here's a question: the tooltip for resilience states, "Provides x% damage reduction against all damage done by players and their pets or minions."

Since the fire elemental is a "guardian" and not a pet/minion AND it is a guardian of the totem, is resilience applied to the damage it does?

Commento di Arkhirion

It probably doesn't concern anyone at all what its exact skills are but I'll just drop this here:

Comes with:
Melee attack (Deals Fire damage.)
Fire Nova (Deals AoE Fire-damage close to his melee damage)
Fire Blast (Deals mediocre Fire damage.)
Fire Shield(Deals low Fire damage on hit.)

Yes these are the proper spell ID's to its skillset.

Most damage done, around 70%, will still come from its Melee-attacks except in AoE situations where it truly shines.

Single Target it is a reliable skill to use for Elemental(and/or Restoration) shamans.
However I believe Enhancement Shamans will rarely see use of this spell in single target PvE situations.
Searing Totem is very valuable in increasing Lava Lash damage.

Just my 2 cents.

Commento di arkensis

The Item - Shaman T12 Elemental 2P Bonus on Volcanic Regalia originally came with a chance that Lightning Bolt would reset the cooldown on this totem completely. This allowed the Fire Elemental to be up almost 100% of the time during raid encounters.

With Patch 4.3, however, the set bonus was modified to give Lightning Bolt a 30% chance to reduce the cooldown by 4 seconds, likely in order to prevent Elemental Shaman from retaining their Tier 12 through the new content.

Commento di Femasham

Why does everyone assume that the elemental living inside of this totem is a male?
For all we know, male and female fire elementals might look alike, and we are just summoning an ambiguous race of beings made of fire. I like to think mine is a female, strictly because she's my best friend.

Commento di PriestessAur

For Mists of Pandaria the cooldown on Fire Ele is being reduced to 5 min.

Commento di rodalpho

The devs told us exactly how Fire Elemental Totem scales with Spell Power at the link below.

http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/5889309137?page=182#3635

I'm pasting it here in case they retire the beta forums after release.

The Fire Elementals were stronger than we wanted, so we reduced the amount of spell power that the standard version gets to 40%, down from 55% (Primal: 60%, down from 82.5%).

Commento di Thottbot

Not a controlable pet. It just goes after anything in the range around the totem. Good AoE, but only 4-5k health and so it dies quickly unless a healer is watching it, or it's used on a boss and the tank holds agro. It also has a fire shield (aura?) I could tell because all the mobs were hitting it anyways. Pretty good PvE and PvP, but the long cooldown means it can't be used in the arenas. IMO, it doesn't deserve the cooldown they give it.

Commento di Thottbot

we would all much rather have the classic purple spirit wolves. they would at least be cool.

Commento di Thottbot

i agree with one of the above posts. It would be so so so cool if we got the wolves the Shammies had from Warcraft 3. It would be really cool if we could summon 2 at a time like the Shammies could then.

You may think that sounds stupid, but remember Druids have the exact same thing pretty much. They summon 3 Trents at a time and they move as one, that is, you click attack, and they all attack.

I think the wolves would be much more cool/effective, and really the only thing this totem is for is to look good, which i have to admit it does pretty well.

On the whole, not a bad talent, but i can think of betta fire totems to use instead of this one if you want to hurt guys.

Commento di Thottbot

because i know elemental fury talent point works. my fire elemental crits fire nova for 1400 instead of 1100 for most other shamans

Commento di Thottbot

Does speccing for Call of Flame in the elemental tree increase the damage that the elemental does? And if so, is it worth the points into call of flame?

Commento di Thottbot

is it possible to summon earth and fire element at the same time? :>

Commento di Thottbot

2 min cool on the other after using one. so once you use one you cant use the other till the one is 2 mins up or dies. and how are priests overpowered? every class is overpowered in a way. shammys really arent. they just pwn :D

Commento di Thottbot

Which would be better to use the Fire Elemental or the Earth Elemental. I wouldn't know i have a 51 sham.

Commento di Thottbot

Fire Elemental: If we are talking about damage then you'll drop this one. Fire guy deals loads of damage - if I remember right someone said hes fire guy hitted for around 1.4k? etc. but I think its more fragile.

Stone Elemental: This one doesnt deal really damage at all - hits around 110 with each hit, but its able to keep agro as hell! I once nuked a mob from 100% to 30% and dropped the Stone totem.. he hit'd the mob once! and got agro from me O_O

Commento di Thottbot

give earthquake too! ^^

Commento di Thottbot

Okay, here's what I'm thinking. Next expansion (not that I've heard of one but it's pretty likely to happen!) there should be two more elementals: Water Elemental that spams lesser healing waves to party members that need it, and Air Elementals that whirlwind an opponent making them incapable of attacking (any damage would break the effect).

Blizzard, listen up!

Commento di Thottbot

i think the shamans fire ele and earth ele only deserves a 5 minurte cool down .. its a mad pet or 1-on-1 combat me and my fire elemental beat the *!@# out of a hunter.. im full enhancement.. i have 1300 attack power no buffs.we snap in bg's

Commento di Thottbot

i think he is right they do not deserver a 20 min cooldown i think it should be 10 so we can use them in bg

Commento di Thottbot

All who say this about ghost wolves..........

We are not far seer we are SHAMAN!

and we can only go into ghost wolf form we are a bit like a mix of far seer and shaman in wc3 that makes my above statement false. For example mages do they got the ability to teleport, make a water elemental and aoe blizzard like the hero in WC3? No they can't errr wait a second THEY CAN

Can druids cast Entangling roots, summon 3 treants, and put a buff on themselves that makes all attackers loose damage like the keeper of the groove.. wait a second THEY CAN

We can only cast 2 of the Far Seers spells, far sight and chain lightning.

That means we either should get one more. Either Earthquake or Feral Spirits(the two wolves) I would pick Earthquake because then it would be easier to destroy siege weapons objectives in the upcoming expansionback.

But who knows they might already have planned to include it!

That's my point have fun spend less time at thottbot more time spamming the suggestions forums xD

Commento di Thottbot

About that idea earlier for a water/wind greater elemental, it won't happen. And I'd have to say it would upset me if it did. Do you know why? I'll tell you! We got earth & fire totems to attack the opponents becuase they are the totems in the front. Do you think you would want an attacker to come into the battle way in the back? I have a 68 shaman, just got the elemental totems, and have considered that prospect, but that is the conclusion I have reached. Oh, and, about the wolves: I am anxious to see what Blizzard does with the 70-80 shaman, however after we get the ability to summon 2 huge elementals, maybe Blizzard might find it cleshay to make it so that shamans can summon crap like that all the time. I think that earthquake is more likely than the wolves, however I would like it if we got both >:). But anyways, if they do add the wolves, it would probably have to be a talent, becuase we can't just let all shamans run around summoning god knows what every battle... It would be cool, but it would be real tough to fight against something seeing as how the shaman is a primarily petless class. If the wolves do come, they're either coming as an elemental talent, or will be weak in battle without boosts from the elemental talent field. Elemental shammies ftw, any resto class can go enjoy thieir hour-long fights. (By the way, I feel pretty confident that the next super ability the shaman will get is going to be earthquake; shammies have been needing an AoE.)

Commento di Thottbot

they need to make a lightning totem 5 totems is scary

Commento di Thottbot

Shaman pwns all ftw ! best class ^^

Commento di Thottbot

Shaman are strong especialy with this pet ...

Commento di Thottbot

To the person who said that the elemental totems were fire and earth since they were in the front, that arguement is completely destroyed if the air/water elementals (If they existed) were casters. Caster are SUPPOSED to be in the back...Make air elemental a DPS caster, and water a healer/support caster.

Commento di Thottbot

that spell cost a lot of mana diller

Commento di Thottbot

I imagine this spell would do sum exceptionally good aoe damage when defending ur general in AV...probably coz 2/5 times we attack galv there is horde defending and always atleast 1 shammy that puts this thing up and it has been quite effective ='(
P.S. It DOES look pritty damn awesome from my perspective, its big, strong, and has flames all over it, what more u want?

Commento di Thottbot

I love this spell,on my 70 enhancement shaman i have seen it crit for 1k damage (about 650 normal) and all i can say is alliance watch out for me with my awesome elemental,and my double windfurrys. Best pet you will find (on my 70 hunter his pet rits for 800,and on my 70 lock his pet crits for about 750s)

Commento di Thottbot

Yeah, this spell is good. It's great to use in the tight spaces of WSG (tunnels etc.).
I've held back 2-3 allies before with this thing. Just let it do the damage while i spam heal. Of course it's easy to take out by simply attacking the totem but in the heat of battle people rarely think to do that. Plus it usually goes ahead of the totem and makes it hard to get a shot off. Its also great if your running with the flag/supporting the flag runner because it will hold them up and freak them out.

It's also great when your fighting mobs as a form of escape. If the situation turns bad, just drop it and run because it aggroes heaps and will last long enough to hold the mobs off while you make your get away.

Good extra bit of DPS when fighting bosses to but be careful coz it can steal aggro and it dies fast.

But what is with the cooldown? 10 mins please blizzard!

Commento di Thottbot

so... fire nova, magma, and searing totem all slapped together... on steroids? rofl
