Перевод не корректный: дамаг МОЖЕТ сбить эффект, а не сбивает гарантированно, как овцу. Достаточно почитать англоязычный тред тут же. Там люди пишут что эффективно убивали мобов и других игроков находящихся в лягушке.

Хэкс, тобишь Сглаз, - отличное заклинание для крауд контрола. Во-первых, в нём цель не лечится, как в овечке, так что можно в случае чего и во время драки уже побитого моба/чара лягушачнуть, а во-вторых, что важно для рэйдов, любой урон не снимет заклинание, так что можно ударить и Громовым Ударом вара или любым другим АоЕ, а моб/чар будет лягушкой, что в принципе хорошо. В ВотЛК по-мойму у каждого класса есть CC спел, и вот лягушка, вроде, - один из лучших.

Комментарий от 628438

как и весь остальной контроль, в пвп действует 8 секунд (с 4.0.6)
при этом в лягушке можно свободно передвигаться, ставить тотемы, менять формы и бить правосудием О_о (наверное, баг).
лягушка, в отличии от овцы или страха, является проклятием, т.е. может быть снята только магом, друидом или другим шаманом.

с 4.3 в лягушке можно только бегать, ставить тотемы и так далее - уже нельзя.

With the current wording that we have, Hex seems like a very powerful crowd control spell: it makes the target unable to attack or cast (full silence) for the duration of the debuff (supposedly up to 12 sec in PvP).

The movement speed of the debuffed is no longer reduced by 75% as in the alpha, but as it seemed by the alpha description of Hex, the target could still cast and attack when not moving.

Also note that damage may and not will break Hex, so it is a chance to break, much like Fear.

Another thing to remember is that it is a curse debuff, not a magic one, meaning that it can be dispelled by druids, mages and (in WotLK) restoration shamans, but not by priests, paladins or felhunters.

The relatively long cooldown of 45 seconds and the cast time of 1.5 seconds make it a spell to be used with care, not a spammable CC like the similar Polymorph. Because the name of the mechanic is "Polymorphed", it is likely that shapeshifted druids will be immune to Hex just as they are to the mage spell.

Overall, Hex comes as the CC much needed by every shaman. As with every spell, it is not perfect, but it is certainly very powerful in PvP as well as in PvE.

Комментарий от 155931

Currently it seems the effect cannot be maintained indefinitely in PvE, therefor, while certainly an excellent crowd control, the Hex target ought to be very high on the kill order.

Комментарий от 118811

Damage caused MAY interrupt the effect. Fear has a big chance of being cancelled if the target is struck by a direct-damage spell. I hope Hex effect won't be cancelled that easy by a direct-damage spell.
But better somethin', than nothin'.

Комментарий от 178017

Looking at the wording, it really does not apply any effect to impair movement or lose control of character... Does this mean that the PvP Medallion will not remove it? Medallion specifically states "Removes all effects which impair movement or cause loss of control of your character."

Just a question, because if PvP Medallion does not remove effect, the 45 sec. cooldown seems to make a LOT more sense.

Even if it can be removed by the trinket, as stated above, something IS better than nothing.

Комментарий от Ixio

This talent could be called Frog too ;)

Just a note, Shamans ( Reguardless of specc ) will beable to CC. Imagine your 5 man group, with a healing Shaman, being able to CC. ( If its anything like Polymorph, then it'll be reliable too ^^ ).

Its similar to sap in that it cant be maintained constantly, but opposed to sap, it can be re-applied after it is broken! So our CC is now as good as a rogues =P There's may last longer but ours can be applied in combat, so its a give and take thing

I've gotten a question about this spell Hex for the shamans in the WoTLK. Wowhead says it is learned by a shaman trainer in Stormwind and doesn't show anywhere else. Is this spell also available for the horde too get as well as the alliance? I don't know why they would make it just for alliance, but you never know. Just curious =]

Комментарий от 169126

The big question mark for me in PVE is what Hex'd mobs will do with their ability to move. Are they going to be running into the party, running into AOE zones or running off to pull the next group of mobs around the corner?

This guy makes a very vaild point, someone answer his question XD

Комментарий от 168307

Finally pew pew ownage for my lovely enha shammy. @imagdreon, since when do totems help avoid getting stunf****d by a rogue, maybe if you get the timing right u can avoid 1-2 fears but, the totem has a longer time between procs compared to spam fear from locks or "I WIN BUTTON" for rogues, any shammy out there know's what i'm talking about.

Комментарий от 193029

ATTENTION
Read the description very carefully, for one, unlike Polymorph, it does not say
it forces you to wander around for , but says you cant cast spells etc,
this means you control the frog. ALSO it says damage MAY break the effects of Hex,
making this extremely useful. Have fun shamans!

Hex is is nothing like Polymorph, though it is a polymorph mechanic (plus the visual effect of turning enemies into critters).

The effect of the spell is similar to a combination of disarm and silence.

If kept as what it is now, Hex would be the most unique "CC" in the game that a hexed player still has full control of her character, and she is not snared/slowed either.

At this point, unless Blizzard decides to change it, the PvP Trinket wouldn't dispel this spell. Or perhaps Blizz might keep it that way as to preserve the uniqueness of this ability.

Комментарий от 206497

So, with this ability being changed to more of a polymorph idea, does the HP regen of polymorph now apply?

I was so excited when i first read that shamans can now CC. mostly from a PvP perspective. I dont know how many times ive fought a druid, burn them down to almost no life, they bash me, cyclone, full heal. then start into me again. without a viable stun my insane burst damage was allways countered in this way, via some sort of stun / heal mechanic.

having the ability to CC , then heal yourself will prolong the enhancement shamans life 10 fold. BUT if this works like polymorph and i cast it to get a break to heal myself, and the polymorph effect in turns heals my enemy...... you can see where im going with this.

My initial thoughts where because of the ability for your enemy to move, it canceled out this healing effect. But now with it removed, can someone clarify to me if it still works on the same functions as it did before? Saft stated that it didnt heal in its old design, can anyone reinforce this please.

If this item does in turn act the way i would like it to act, i can see alot of people screaming about enhancement shammys being OP. More so if malestrom weapon allows you to get two full Healing waves in before your Hex breaks. I cant wait to try these new options out in PvP. As of now i pray i can burn down my adversary faster than he can CC or heal through my burst damage. :)

Комментарий от TheFunk

Moodles, I mean no disrespect, but I have a problem with a lot of what you said there...

First, in that clash with a druid, he'll just poly out of your hex and you're back where you started...although I wonder if that can happen, given how the spell states that it works on beasts too, so I guess we'll see on that.

Second, if you read the description on Hex and compare it to the description on Polymorph, no where in hex does it say anything about the hexed target healing, while in the description on Polymorph, it says so explicitly, so I think it's safe to assume that hexed targets won't have that regeneration.

I don't think this is going to make shammans OP at all. On the contrary, it will even the playing field a bit. Why should you guys be the only class to not have any good CC? Keep in mind though, with a 1.5 second cast, people are not going to let you cast it if they can help it. Ever see a warlock try to fear a rogue that loves to kick? It doesn't happen...often. I mean, let's take a look at that druid example again. He's still going to bash/cyclone you...having hex will not prevent that. What would prevent that, is saving your trink for that cyclone. You trink the cyclone of an badly injured druid that he needs to buy time to heal himself and he'll be in big trouble. Your best application of this spell would be to use on him after you trink that cyclone...especially if it can't be shifted out of; you'll have the chance to close ground and maybe even kill them before they have a chance to heal. Likewise, you can earthshock the next incoming cyclone/roots before you cast this if they try to get a fast CC off. The only thing that can really stop you is if they NS a cyclone or roots...and even that shouldn't matter too much; if it's a cyclone, it's on DR since you just trinked one, and if it's a roots, if you get the immobilizing effect removal from ghostwolf back you can hit that and you're back on the chase. Of course, both of these problems could also be solved by laying out a grounding totem after popping the trink, but I digress...

Finally, I think the biggest question right now is whether or not one can trinket out of this spell. From what I've read, it doesn't seem like the player loses it's ability to control the character, which means unlike polymorph, the trinket might mean nothing. If that's true, then I would say that this is a bit OP, since every other CC in other classes can be removed with the trinket.

I think you should see this spell as heartier blind (in that dmg might not break it) with a cast time. The 45 second CD makes it something that you'll not be spamming, but if used at the right time it'll be devastating. I'm looking forward to seeing how this plays out.

Комментарий от 225316

It's not much of a CC if you don't get it until level 80, should be level 40. Most elites will me immune I bet.

Комментарий от 161867

That would be idiotic. I'm sure it will be made more into a shammy poly. Having a CCed mob run away is pointless and defeats it's use as a CC.

For PvP I can hear it now. "!HEX LOCK SHAMAN ARE SOOOO OP, I CANT EVEN MAKE A SINGLE ATTACK!", says all the locks and rouges. (Note, curse, not removable by CoS or Devour Magic, TY WOW GODS.). The 2 classes giving me the most trouble from their cowardly fighting styles.

Ele Shammys get this in addition to the other ele tree abilities to thwart rouges and locks now (Astral Shift and T-Storm), as a Die Hard Elemental Shaman this makes my pants wet.

Mechanic: Polymorphed (While Druids that are already poly-morphed should be able to resist it, they, in theory cant cast the spell to transform themselves.)

Dispel type: Curse (Therefore, Druids, Magi, and possibly Warlocks, can dispel this, as long as they are dispelling others, any trinket that can dispel curses should also work, however anything that dispels 'magic', would be ineffective.)

Комментарий от 161867

I notice everyone saying in PvP a hexed player can still control a character. But I've seen PvE videos where hexed mobs don't have control and don't run away. Would it be that Hex will have different effects based on who and where you cast? I know duration would be shortened in PvP obviously. It just doesn't make sense to have such a conditional spell.

I wander when the mages will be deleted from the game since they are now almost useless, oh forgot, no one can make you a Portal:Dalaran yet... Who knows, maybe DK's we'll be able to make soul gates (just to be in terms with WoW) that will work similar to portals and Druids make some food for you so we can all delete our mages. (no offence to you guys, just picked the 2 classes random).
Mages at the moment can only do dps, AoE, CC, conjure food and portals. Either Blizz ads us some healing tree or abilities either delete us all cause our dps sucks (unless you are T9999 whatever), CC seems to be on every class, AoE the same (almost on every class) and who the *** needs that Intelect buff anyway?

Комментарий от Rokira

I was dueling a friend of mine (who happens to be a Shaman), and I have a question regarding the mechanics of Hex. I was playing a Death Knight, and I used Mind Freeze on him while he was casting Hex, and although the interrupt went through, the silence factor of the ability did not. Originally I thought Hex did not belong to a school, which may have answered my question, but Wowhead does indeed appear to list it in the Nature school. Am I reading tooltips wrong, or is this a bug? Is there some obvious explanation of this issue? If nothing else to satisfy my ego. :)

Комментарий от Windwalk

@the above poster:

Hex is in the nature tree, although like ghost wolf it has an arcane casting animation. Lockouts appeared to work against me. Is it possible that your friend juked your interrupt?

Although this is technically not CC or a movement impairing effect, it's trinketable for balance reasons.

It's a decent spell, but has many limitations.

I immediately looked at it as a way to set up burst on many targets (especially warriors). Stuns and deathcoil are often used on warriors in berserker stance to set up burst, since they will be unable to get into defensive.

Hex works decently for this, since warriors cannot switch stances while hexed. They can, however, use spell reflect. So if you can a warrior in defensive stance, don't expect this to prevent reflects.

Rogues can use cloak of shadows to remove hex, and can also vanish while a frog. They remain a frog while stealthed.

Shamans can drop all totems.

Overall, for PvP, it adds more to the shaman class than most other classes got from their level 80 ability (lol@fan of knives). I'm happy with it.

Комментарий от Akawa

From what I can see, this looks like Curse of Tongues, only it disables your attack, too. You shouldn't really be able to trinket out of it, since it has a break chance, but to be honest I think it you will probably be able to.

Комментарий от 150104

With Polymorph your character moves around randomly you have no control over it and the first bit of damage regardless of the amount taken will break the polymorph.

With Hex i'm not totally sure if its based on a percentage or if its based ona flat amount that dictates the maximum threshold before the spell with break but to me against a lvl 80 PvP target the threshold seems to be around 3500 - 5000 damage taken.

Flame shock (even 2.4k crit) never break hex on an enemy target.
A lightning bolt that hit for 3500 didnt break hex on the target.
A nonlava burst crit for around 3400 did not break the hex on the target however lava bursts that crit for 5000 and up and lightning bolts that did 4400 and up when no other damage was taken by the target usually broke the hex

If you are hexed in a battleground by an enemy shaman the most useful (and life saving) thing you can do is find an obstacle to run behind causing them to be out of line of sight of you then hopefully you'll get out of hex faster based on the time it takes them to stop casting and run up to you.

Its also very fun to see one rogue defending a node in ab rrun hex them and then cap the node before it breaks :D (done it a few times)

PS: Haven't tried it yet but another good idea when hexed is to jump off a cliff into water and you shouldnt take any dmg and most likely break out of it by the time the enemy reaches you (unless they jump too)

Комментарий от 293146

I have 1 question,

Mechanic is Polymorph, does it share the same dimishing return with
Sap and Polymorph itself then?

Also, does the hexed target count as humanoid, critter or beast?

Thanks.

Комментарий от 161867

Its nifty if your opponent is stupid enough to trinket out of frost shock and at the last moment of killing a healer. Not much more use comes from it.

QQ-warning. The problem with hex is that its useless in most circumstances. With its short range you can only cast it while enemies are right on top of you to interrupt. Hex and run? They still control it, you run, they will run to stay on top if not sitting in your hitbox while you cast so you cant hi them.

In a1v1 fight. If your getting ganked they will have trinket on. Hex and they trinket, one cc, one trinket use. Hex only becomes useful after that initial 45 sec CD while their trinket is on CD. But most fights don't last that long anyway. (On the other end: You trinket out of a loladins sleep, to get HoJ, Trinket out of a rouges Cheap Shot to get Kidney Shot or Blind, Trinket out of Poly and get Poly, Frost Nova, or Deep Freeze, out of locks Fear to get feared, etc. Even priests can instant cast AoE fear every 30 secs. We are stuck with 1 single target CC with a 45 sec CD.)

Its useless in PvE because of its shamefully short range (20 yrd). Hex pull? More like run up and body pull and hex as they are killing you. I've tried using it like a hunters trap, have tank pull, then pull one away (kinda hard with another 20yrd spell, and by then they well held by tank). Its nice that it doesn't break on first damage, but the threshold is small and while DoTs work on the target to an extent, one direct attack WILL break it. Its more of a personal "Oh Shiz" button, especially since all tanks can AoE effectively. Tank dies, your next on agro naturally, you hex and run away.

Its only use seems to be at a specific time during arena matches provided no rouges, shaman, or any other stun happy classes are on you. Which they will because your a shaman.

Personally, I feel ripped off. At 80 rouges get Fan of Knives, mages get Mirror Image, we get.....a mega-nerfed poly. For our major lack of cc (1 snare, wimpy compared to others 70% slows) you'd think they'd let us have a spam friendly Hex.

To balance there are a few things they could do, not all, but one: With its 20 yrd range, they could make it instant, even shortening its range. Or extend to range to be more of a fair match to poly. Or shorted in CD, if not eliminating it, give it a friendly 6 sec CD or so.

I wish to be proved wrong though, I'd like some truly useful tips for Hex.

Комментарий от mr0ldie

Hex is a polymorph mechanic, suggesting it will be removed by druids in forms.

Hex will silence and pacify, meaning no physical or spell abilities may be used while hexed. Basically like fear. The only difference is, like polymorph, it turns you into a critter, and you'll randomly move around in a small area.

Well, if it's a silence, druids can't shift forms while silenced, so that removes the possibility of them shifting out of it, correct?

Комментарий от Random771452

what's idiotic is thinking a "cc" that is unbreakable and gives shamans a chance to completely kill another player without them doing anything is absurd. Sorry, there are classes that have immunity to stuns (mages, warriors, DKs, and pallies) through talents and moves. Same goes for fear, warriors, shamans, priests, DKs and ANY undead can break fear and even become immune to it for a certain period of time. ALL real forms of cc (poly, sap, repetence, hungering cold) are breakable upon damage, unlike hex. The fact that it lasts 12 seconds is even more bogus, it should be 1/4 that max. Maybe let shamans use it like a death coil (instacast, short duration), to get someone away from them, and it'd be fair in pvp. It's total BS now and you all know it. Or perhaps you should fight another shaman, and have him/her get the first hex off and watch him/her decimate you.

Shamans will mainly have more use to this in PvP situations since almost all raid/dungeon groups follow the "run in and AoE the crap out of everything" tactic. This usually works, therefore making all forms of CC almost useless in PvE. Blizzard has pretty much eliminated use of CC in PvE because they want every type of spec to be useful and wanted in groups.

Комментарий от 346805

Oh, well, this spell is really good, and more than useful...

This is why...

1-When you are PvPing, use Hex, and get full healed, it will be enough time to heal yourself, and get back in fight..
2-when you are PvEing, is a good way to use Hex and then, Spirit Wolf...to flee of the battle (Perhaps this with be useful in PvP)
3-I think this spell can be usefull too in instances, with 'bout 30 seconds hex'd it will be enough (I think) to kill a mob, and attacking this other one, who was Hex'd, so thy won't attack you 2 elites mobs...
So, this is a GREAT spell, very useful as PvP as is in PvE

Комментарий от Celerex

People should stop comparing this effect to polymorph. There are far too many differences to consider these even relatively similar.

1. Control of your character. Unlike polymorph Hex allows you to move your character throughout the duration. As someone pointed out you can run into a fight and hope to get the effect broken by AOE dmg.

2. Damage MAY break hex. Polymorph is broken the moment 1 dmg is taken.

3. Polymorph HEALS the player. Sheep + POM + Pyro was a somewhat useful opening combo but using polymorph half way through a PVP fight on a 'hurt' player was completely useless. Within a matter of a few ticks the player was returned to full health. Hex appears to be a 'silence' affect that has no healing properties. Far more useful in PVP than polymorph.

Yes there are similarities but let's stop the comparison shall we? Congrats Shammies, you deserve a solid CC... and this IS a solid CC.

P.S. CC is almost never used in PVE any more. I haven't polymorphed a single tagert as an 80 that wasn't to demount it where it was almost immediately broken again by our AOE tank (even warriors as they use lots of AOE abilities to ensure proper threat on all their targets) so 'being passed over for a ^&*!ty rogue / mage w/ CC' is a thing of the past. There is of course an exception, occasionally having a Warlock along to do banishes in certain cases (ie druid in TOC) is nice.

THE macro to go with this spell:

/cast Hex
/y You're changing, you're changing, you're changing alright! I hope you're satisfied... but if you ain't, don't blame me! You can blame my friends... on the other side!

I was away from my Shaman for quite a while, in what patch did the duration on this get buffed to 1 min?

The Naz'Jar Spiritmenders in Throne of Tides have a version of Hex that turns you into a crab. If Blizzard ever adds a Minor Glyph for Shaman that allows our Hex to do that... I will be eternally grateful.

I'm amazed to see that there is no mention of the fact that certain moves are usable while you are hexed. I don't have the full list of moves but many classes can still do things while they are hexed.

Shaman: Can still throw down any totems
Rogue: Can throw down smoke bomb and use preparation
Paladin: I believe Avenger's Shield is usable, not 100% positive
Priest: Tested priest seems to not be able to use any moves, sorry!

Others should further test this to make a full list of moves usable while hexed.

Pro Tip: You do not need to face your target to cast Hex on them.

I'm pretty sure Restoration Hex can break early spontaneously, whereas a Hex cast in Elemental spec only breaks early when the target is damaged. Hex breaks early way more frequently when I'm healing and it seems like the mob was usually untouched when the CC broke. Anybody else have this experience or am I just going crazy?

With Resto, you're probably not hit-capped. Back in TBC at least (and probably still now), cc would periodically "tick" and check for hit rating to see if it would break.

Elemental has Elemental Precision, a talent which increases your hit rating through Spirit, which is why it won't break in Elemental spec.

Every spec of Shaman has a way to #$%^ on those pesky ally who hang outside org sometimes (fine, you allies can use it on us too).

You know when they land on the ground to taunt people and then fly away as soon as they are attacked? Well just go with one of these combos depending on your spec to make them look foolish:

Elemental: Drop your Earthbind root on them and quickly cast Hex while they are rooted.
Enhance: Use your Frost Shock! root and Hex them.
Resto: Nature's Swiftness->Hex = Win

2 things:

I've found I can take quite a bit of damage when hexed without it breaking. I've taken around 40-50k before while hexed, which as a priest is quite substantial.
Still being able to move while hexed can be very useful, especially as a healer. In a BG like WSG, when the Shaman tries to CC you while they nuke the FC, you can continue to hop after the FC (at 100% movement speed! that's one fast frog!) so that as soon as the Hex breaks, you can immediately heal/attack/cc. Healers may also like to hop out of the line of fire to a safer spot for when the Hex breaks. On the other hand, hopping *into* the line of fire (or frying pan?) may be useful to try to break the Hex earlier. Or, as someone else said, you may want to just run away/out of LoS until the Hex breaks.

Trivia: Since players run 7 yards a second (nearly a 4-minute mile; about 12% slower than the current world record holder) that is very probably the fastest frog the world has ever seen.
