Who wants answers?

Okay, here's the situation. It's not an exploit, and no sorry, it's not really considered creative use of game mechanics either, based on what that term usually is intended to imply. You're free to take advantage of "totem twisting", but be aware -- we do plan to address it at some point in the future.

I might.

Can I ask if the Enhancement Talent "Enhancing Totems" is going to apply to not only SoE/GoA but any other totems? WF, FT, WoA, ToW, etc. Would make sense to me.

As for the Totem Twisting title... I know this refers to GoA/WF "twisting" in raid/party situations... but can I pretend that it means that totems only have 5 hit points and you end up twisting your face after a level 1 boar accidently trips on your mana tide and kills it? :)

Or are you suggesting we can now cast WF on other people's weapons?

Are GoA and WF totems being combined into one totem? Wrath of Fury? /lulz

Any near term plans to replace the outdated tanking talents in the enhance tree with something useful?

I got one. Since Grounding Totem is now destroyed whenever it absorbs a spell, will the cooldown be reduced or the duration lengthened?

Q u o t e:

Thats what she said, sorry I couldn't resist.

In all seriousness, I'm highly interested on the dev's stance on this, although I suspect they don't approve.

Edit: in regards to the WF/Goa(or TA) totem thing where you could get both buffs.
