Do you know an addon, that notifies me, if there is a totem I need to get rid of? My screen is kind of a mess, if I play vs pet classes, and when there is a shaman it is hard to see, when he drops an important totem, that I need to kill. (Yes, I’m evolving slowly from tunnel vision pve dps to learning the game thanks to the amazing solo shuffle addition)

notifies u bunch of stuff, u can also modify it easily by duplicate something on it and then make it do what u need into the group

for totems, u can hide healthbars like this and make them only show icon that u can click example
u can also use it to hide specific minions healthbars entirely that default wow options dont let u do or u can use the addon called advancedinterfaceoptions and locate something like UnitNameEnemyGuardianName and make it 0 and u hided nameplates of something like lock netherportals minions and various other things
its up to u freely tweak around

Could someone list the totems I need to get rid of?
I just want to build them into my instant casts, as a macro. So that I target always the totem with that spell, when they drop.
I don’t think you can macro target totems. Not sure. Just heard someone say you couldn’t.
Actually, thats something that seems smart to test for myself lol.
But totems you need to kill are skyfury and the healing totems. And maybe that wall totem. I dont remember what its called.
And when grounding totem is down you can toss out a low cost, low dmg instant spell to get rid of it.
You also need to kill spriests psy-fiend.

link takes 1 sec to do its thing some ppl kill it too
also incap takes 2 sec to do its stun so it can be killed
healing stream is alot passive healing now cos talents implemented for it its worth to kill
and rest were alrdy said all totems are low hp 1-2 hit things
True I juts didn’t put them cause for me it’s obvious, could have said static field totem as well but it’s easy to see.
Most of the important totem imo are skyfury windfury that people (and even r1 player) don’t kill it or way too late.
killing tremor comes first to priests mind
i see priest running towards me i know he wants to fear, i tremor when his near, priest know i want to tremor too so instead press fear he was waiting see tremor and sw:d on it or something and then press fear
this game is such u press x i press y

I use this little script to make nameplates clean:
/script SetCVar("nameplateShowEnemyMinions", 0)
/script SetCVar("nameplateShowEnemyTotems", 1)
/script SetCVar("nameplateShowEnemyPets", 0)
And on top of that you can use either WA or GladiatorlosSA to notify you when totem is up.
Just a note that for GladiatorlosSa you need to turn of 99% default spells, and once you do it’s pretty much equivalent to WA

I tested it, it works. I just want a macro that kills every totem after priority. Sadly I can just make it work for one totem at a time, any idea’s?
/use [target=totem name, exists] [@target] spell name
You don’t need to switch target, it will auto kill the totem. If there is no totem it will use the spell on the target.
/use [target=totem name, exists][target=totem name, exists] [@target] spell name
Does not work.
annoying how easy it is to counter the shamans core mechanic
not many counter it intuitively tho so unless play above some threshold on shaman its mostly fine

Just try without the exist
Yeah. Seems a bit unfair imo. Atleast we now have totemic projection to counter totem instakills a bit…

I’m actually really confused now. I thought it was not possible to do something like that in arenas, or else sniping groundings and banners would be way too easy.
I’m not saying that I don’t believe you but just for clarification, did you try that inside an arena ? I can’t try it right now
I’m most curious about a macro to instantly throw an instant spell on grounding totem. I feel like it’s completely busted to be able to deal with it with just a macro in retail.
Tbh should be easy to do something like
/tar Grounding
/cast sw pain
I guess it’s impossible to do for multiple things except using a macro with modifier.
Just did it in arena, works.

only way to get incap hit something that is not a npc honestly
but luckily there is no good way to pick it on the path so dont need worry about that either 
Lol, what?
It should not be possible to target totems with macro, if you can I would consider it a bug
Blizzard removed this option so people won’t let’s say bind pet attack totem to each of their ability (which maktes sense…).
If you read the macro, I did not target it. It just use the ability on it.
They can’t change that, or there would be no arena 1, 2, 3 macro’s.
Apart from that you can only do that with one totem, per macro, as far as I know.
