Wow...
Glyph of Unleashed Lightning (new Prime glyph) allows Lightning Bolt to be cast while moving.
That certainly made things interesting, all of a sudden!

I think we might wanna make this a 4.2 thread in general because there is a lot going on now and some of it is a little... interesting.
I think having the glyph is a little too much of a mobility buff. They would only have to stop for a LvB and that's only if Lava flows doesn't proc. The way I think they should fix mobility is make a glyph or talent that takes the cooldown off spiritwalker's grace and have it last until cancelled, but have it increase cast time by 15% and cannot be casting while casting. That way they get mobility at the cost of output like a fire mage and scorch.
As for other changes...
The Lava Flows buff is a little scary, but I like the thunderstorm improvement. It's like the old Blast Wave mechanic now just with nature damage instead.
Lightning shield and water shield not being dispelled makes me happy.
I saw the water shield mana return nerf and I cried because of Imp water shield then I saw Resurgence, read it 5 times and I grew a smile. Then I cried about mana tide, but meh, it kind of needed nerf.

All healing critical strikes now heal for 2 times a normal heal (+100%), up from 1.5 times a normal heal (+50%).
is all i'm looking at...

Yeah, seriously. I read a blue post saying they might implement it eventually. I wouldn't have guessed that eventually meant next patch. Crit is now on our throughput table as a hard hitter. I love resto shaman. What other healer can have a huge hodgepodge of secondary stats and still rock your world?

at the same time i fear it.
just seems too good to be true. I just feel the doom of the nerfbat looming over me when I hear something so awesome...

The wording in the notes is "new prime glyph," not "...is now." At face value it looks like a completely new glyph, but Blizz has been iffy on patch note wording before. Someone just needs to boot up the PTR and check out their glyphs tab to see.
It's not on the PTR yet. Probably will be in the next build.

i still not unstand this one XD
(Unleash Elements is now in the Nature school, and thus can no longer be used if a shaman's Nature school has been locked out)
i find good thas they change on ele buff up for ele!
but i like hate they neft on res mana tide totem have help me a lot when i have been oom or near oom
and we will get less mana back from they water sheild :(
but it is me or i see onhy pvp change?
Brought his post on my thread over here because I reported mine for deletion. Thank you for changing the name of this thread Falsegod. =)
We could get locked out when healing and still cast UE; I guess they didn't like that =P
It is mainly pvp, but Resurgence is very nice. I like it a lot because the mana from crit surges won't be RNG of RNG. I think we needed pvp nerfs. My friends in vent won't shut up about not being able to kill a resto shaman in blues at 2700 rating. =D

They're going to have to tone this stuff way back or Shamans will be dominating the brackets with all three of their specs.
Nothing wrong here, carry on. We just need some terrible people testing on PTR, so the notes will make it to live =D
