Last patch it was the Magma totem stealth nerf that made it useless, and now we have not one but TWO stealth nerfs.
First Flurry now fades after two hits instead of three AND windfury proc now drains flurry of its speed. Flurry Enhanced shamans now need to respec!
Second Frost shock not only had its slow effect DR'ed but its DAMAGE is cut in half or immune now too. There is nothing like being in group pvp and trying to Frost shock someone for 500 mana only to be told IMMUNE because another shaman already used it 3 times 15 seconds ago. I LOVE dropping 500 mana on a spell to be told a player is Immune.Show me another class that has a 500 mana spell that players can become immune to.
Thanks for not having the brass to list your true intentions Blizzard. You can never outright nerf a class with a clear reason, you have to resort to these underhanded tricks because you can't stand to hear people complain(which is why these changes took place in the first place).I'm now limited to repeating a single spell over and over (earthshock), and there is nothing like having to use a nature spell on night elves who have built in nature resistance.
Blizzard you have the balancing ability of a Drunk in a sobriety test. Thanks for ruining the 40+ days I've played your game to develop a gimp. I'm glad a canceled my two accounts a month ago....I only wish I saw your true colors before I trusted you with the ability to make a game that was fun to play for atleast 6 months. $300 down the tubes....live 'n learn I guess.
Hope is the denial of reality. -Ezareth Savvant

This change is not intended. Our developer team is investigating the issue. This was certainly not meant as a "stealth nerf" -- it was not our intent to change these two things at all.
I apologize for the panic; I'll keep you informed as things develop.
