Hey hey,

We received a small update from the developers yesterday which might be of interest:

In beta, we felt Windfury Totem was too strong for Enhancement Shaman, which is why it wasn't giving you the extra Windfury Attack. However, we've just applied a hotfix that now causes Windfury Totem to increase the proc chance of the Enhancement Shaman's base Windfury. In a future patch, we'll again restore it as a separate buff for the Enhancement Shaman and tune it accordingly.

Regarding other bugs:
  • A hotfix will soon be deployed to fix Static Cling from being interrupted
  • We're also working on a hotfix to fix Heroism/Bloodlust (when spec'd into Shamanism) to not apply Sated
  • Additionally, we're going to increase the damage of Chain Lightning through Ride the Lightning. We agree it's a bit under-tuned. The intention is for Ride the Lightning to be a strong anti-melee choice, while Forked Lightning should be a good choice when facing targets that are far away from the Shaman
