Not something that is included in most builds, the stoneclaw totem is not used much, and the 20% won't make a huge difference. Theese points are probably worth more spent elsewhere.

Horrid talent. If you're thinking of speccing Elemental for the love of all that is holy do not put ANY points into this talent.

This gives your Stoneclaw totem 657.5 additional hit points at 70.
Which is a decent amount, except that Stoneclaw can't grab or take aggro for shit and only has 1300 or so hp to begin with.

Adds 2 yards to Earthbind, making for a grand total of 12 yards.

All in all, a very bad talent.

Comment by Greyson

I like this talent myself, as it gives a boost to the class' comparatively weak PVE crowd control. Although it is clearly not the strongest talent, it does allow my stoneclaw to take a few more hits (and given the stun, the extra HP means 3 to 6 more seconds of add control), and increases the area covered by Earthbind Totem by the 44% mentioned before. On any one radius point, it will only increase the range by 20%, but given the pulsing nature of Earthbind, this usually mans that the talented totem will "catch" incoming enemies closer to the intended untalented effect area, between 12 and 9 yards, rather than between 10 and 7 yards - pulsing totem mechanics annoy me to no end. In other words, this means your Earthbind totem consistently stops enemies BEFORE they get in your face, allowing the totem to be significantly more effective as a preventative tool.

With Stoneclaw changes meaning that it now protects your other totems (oh so useful in PvP, no more dispatching my Wrath Of Air with a single Ice Lance Mr Mage), the addition of Earthen Power effect to the Earthbind Totem and the shift to Tier 1 Enh, we really must consider whether this talent has actually become a serious PvP selection.

Comment by Gulder

Can anyone confirm whether or not it also increases the amount of damage absorbed? (At lvl 80 it absorbs 1085 damage) It would be useful with the Glyph of Stoneclaw Totem, (Your Stoneclaw Totem also places a damage absorb shield on you, equal to 4 times the strength of the shield it places on your totems.) the buff remains even if the totem is destroyed or replaced.

Only then could I see this being a semi viable talent for damage absorption.

3.3 PTR: Also reduces the cooldown of affected Earth Totems by 30%.
This means:
Earthbind - 10.5 sec
Stoneclaw - 21 sec

Pretty significant, I'd say. Anyone who didn't spec into this talent for PvP until now should definitely start doing it.

Works very well with glyph of stoneclaw.
