Eventually we would like to improve the UI for Shaman so that their totems do not take up four inventory spaces. This will likely not occur any time soon, however. Additionally, there are other class specific UI improvements and general function use we'd like to implement for the Shaman.

There are no plans at this time to allow totems to affect players in a raid.
