What about Lava Burst? I've never seen Lava not come from within the Earth

If you apply that kind of logic for every caster in the game, it's going to be a bit boring ("My eruption is bigger than your eruption!").
Also: It's magic.

Would be nice to have lightening hit the shaman then be directed into the target.

I'd prefer to see someone channel a lightning bolt, it strikes them, then they redirect it at the target.
Edit: But I would like to see "Ball lightning" murdered.

If the shammon summoned he lava burst from the ground and then kinda "threw" it at the target that would be cool.
I think that would be really cool if blizzard made more of these for all classes. (Not just plan cast but more unique casts to each spell.)

imo Chain Lightning currently has one of the best looking offensive spell effects.
Especially when
Lightning Overload
procs from it. Completely amazing.

Change the Lighting bolt ingame effect for shamans.
LIGHTNING BOLT
Instead of shooting a blue ball of lightning at someone theres should be a cloud that forms above the target area.
Durging the cast timer there could be a cloud that forms above the target and follows them if they move, when the cast time is over then lightning should strike down from the cloud, then the cloud would disapate or just vanish like most spells do.
CHAIN LIGHTNING
Instead of shooting the lightning from the shaman, there should be a cloud that forms above the first target area.
Durging the cast timer there could be a cloud that forms above the target and follows them if they move, when the cast time is over then lighting should strike down from the cloud, and chain to the other targets, then the could would disapate or just vanish like most spells do.
The reason i would like to see this change is the fact that most lightning i have ever seen, be it in real life or most movies, the lightning comes from the cloudy sky.
Please post any other ideas or comments regarding this type of change please.
Good ideas.
Lightning Bolt: Maybe a cloud above the caster's head then it shoots down to their target. The bolt is called by the shaman so should come from the shaman.
Chain Lightning: Same idea as bolt.
I'm adding these to my suggestions and you as the author.

How about no cloud, but i just your waving your hands, and boom a lightning bolt cracks down from the sky
Not special enough. But that's more like Thor or a Thane from Dark Age of Camelot but that is a cool graphic. It crackled when it hit the ground.

I suppose if they were to just change the name from 'Lightning Bolt' to 'Lightning Ball' or 'Lightning tennis ball' it would work.
