Call of the Totems
My shaman, Kallena–who is part wolf, so this is totally hunter related ;) –hit 80 just about when patch 3.2 hit. With it came the ability to drop (up to) all four totems at the same. In fact, she can drop three sets of for four totems by using one of three different new spells:
- Call of the Elements (at level 30)
- Call of the Ancestors (at level 40)
- Call of the Spirits (at level 50)
It was almost too many options to handle! After a bit of tinkering, I came up with a strategy that’s worked well for almost a week now.
#showtooltip /cast [mod] Call of the Spirits /cast [nogroup] Call of the Ancestors /cast Call of the Elements
Call of the Elements is the first one you get, so I figure most shaman will just customize it as needed for instances and whatnot. The second spell shaman get, Call of the Ancestors, gives a specialized option for a set of totems for soloing. Soloing totems–at least for me–never really change. The third set, with Call of the Spirits, is a “special” set for specific circumstances. (Circumstances I haven’t encountered yet…) Pressing a modifier key while using the macro will summon the special totems.
An optional “special case” for this macro is to replace Call of the Spirits with Totemic Recall. Only two totems set are used, but pressing a modifier key with the macro will recall them. (I have a separate button for this right now, so I haven’t tested this version.)
#showtooltip /cast [mod] Totemic Recall /cast [nogroup] Call of the Ancestors /cast Call of the Elements
Or, you can have both:
/cast [mod:shift] Call of the Spirits /cast [mod:ctrl] Totemic Recall
Or any combination you like. :) Enjoy!
