Man uh T?

So, where was I? Oh yes, ahem, I hereby announce that I have nothing important to talk about…no, I josh…I do have something to say or else why would there be a post here?

Enough with the questioning stuff, I tend to find myself doing this more often than is healthy.  So, as most of you know, there is the “support” site called Blog Azeroth and at this place there is a growing number of bloggers of the World of Warcraft have come together to share thoughts and ideas about blogging and WoW in general.

There was a challenge you could say that was put up in the druid forums…

Challenge:
Hypothetical situation: Blizzard has introduced a new underwater zone to WoW. Due to this, they start giving all classes underwater abilities. The druid seal form is now utilized for more than simple travel.

Your goal: Design abilities for the seal form! Is the seal a healer? Magical dps? Physical dps? Tank? Utility? CC? Something entirely new?

I like this idea a lot, partly because I enjoy combat underwater especially when in seal form, yes, druids can do physical damage when in seal form.  It isn’t much, but it is something, as far as the challenge goes, I have something different in mind besides simple physical damage.

I am thinking a combination of CC, something new, the CC part could be a few different spells similar to OP cyclone, which I love by the way, but this could be called the torrent: a violent swirling mass of water surges from the depths and encompasses the victim, rendering them useless for 6 seconds and at the same time leaving a DoT on them for an additional 20 seconds, does this sound OP to you?  Perhaps, but wait it gets better…

Along with having a CC spell, the new and improved Man uh T druid form also gives you the ability to perform group travel with your party members, as long as the druid has the required regeants on hand he can transport his party members to designated points, such as moonglade, darnassus and other havens for those seeking shelter from the vast world.

Also, of course, there has to be some spells for our underwater friends, a new style of moonfire called a moonwave, it sends a blast of water at the enemy causing water damage, this new branch of magic form brings with it a whole new set of gear, such as Witches wraps of the Sea and the Staff of the Hydra, etc…

These are some of my thoughts, a huge OP spell that would be awesome to have would be the drown spell, it is a 10 second spell that must not be interrupted to cast and if successful will fill the victims lungs with water slowly cutting off breath and eventually killing them if they are not able to counteract the effects within 30 seconds.

I know, I am out on a limb here, but this is actually pretty fun coming up with new ideas and stuff.
