Gust of Wind - Best spell!

Classes Shaman
1

Hello - could chamans get this awesome spell back?

It had so much utility - we are a class without a slowfall option, and it really helped survival when jumping from high places. It was also a generally fun and high-mobility spell.
I really regret Blizzard removing it from us :frowning:

Please consider bringing this fun spell back! Even if only on one spec.
It fit my personal RP class fantasy of wind-shaman too…

Go goblin or go bust. Rocket jump is a passable substitute. But yeah, they seem obsessed with turning us into a turret without the damage, nor survivability.

But lets see if the 8.1 changes does bump up the st damage to decent levels.

Haha, exactly. A turret without the damage. Gust of wind also mase a lot of sense thematically. But the biggest issue is that it was supposed to be a punishment to movement, but make Ele more sturdy and turrety. Problem is that if we stand still we’re not even close to the DPS of f.ex. one of the most mobile ranged classes mage. Fire literally lose 0 DPS during execution, and with shimmer they have 0 DPS loss from blinking on all specs. But they do more damage by default when standing still. It’s just sad to see the spec I was planning on maining in BfA be in this state. Glad I decided to ditch my Ele in prepatch when I realized how bad BfA Ele was. Not just performance wise, but the feel of the spec.

And the removal lf gust was really just salt in the wound.

Why do we need slow fall, when we can fall from great height at regular speed and reincarnate instantly when we land. Its a form of fast travel you know.

Because it’s nice to avoid repair bills?
