    Hi All,

    If Ghost Wolf speed was an instant cast, since I am not going to waste my talent points to use this effectively, then what is the point. Blizzard should really make this an instant cast ability and then maybe this spell would be useful to me.

    By the time I cast it (3sec), I already been trapped, cc or killed.. :-)

    In 2.4 ghostwolf is a 2 second cast (instant with talents) Souliisoul. In PvP it is a much needed buff to the shaman class. It maybe not of it self enough but it is great start. With the right class mix (thinking 2v2 pally/shammy) it will really help enhancement shaman a lot. I am resto on my shammy and will probably go that talent way also in PvP.

    They slowed down druids and to keep a equal playing field it is only fair shammy's get same treatment.

    Blaze please learn how to read. In 2.4 ghostwolf will be 2 second cast and instant with talents. Druids had a speed buff that allow some forms to run at above the 40% that ghost wolf does. That was removed. Most pvp forums for shammys put a 0 9 52 build as very viable in 2.4. You do not have to take this but hope I meet you in the arenas if you do not. Above change relates to the pvp BG 60 level boots from Warlords set not skills.

    It's only for Shaman's level 60 or under.. that's just awesome.. I sometimes wonder where people's heads are sometimes.

    Ghost wolf is not an instant cast w/ talents "angelrock" and no i would not spend cuz if i'm 70 and remember what it says "Doest no function for players higher than level 60" so yeah uh huh. there goes your arena plan of running away >_>

    Ghost Wolf is an instant cast if you get Nature's Swiftness.

    looks like a buff to me, adding ice lance to the range talent.
