Protection of Wishka

[Beafly]

Ok, so what the heck is up with this spell? It's a minor upgrade to Tribunal, adds the corruption resist line, is MGBable, cool, cool, cool. But wait! It only lasts a base 36 minutes? Just barely enough to keep up with MGB if fully extended. Why? What in the world could possibly be over powering about giving this buff a decent duration to match the rest of our buffs? Hold on though, it gets worse... 300 second recast (5 minutes!)? WTF! This is nothing more than annoying as hell. What purpose does a 300 second recast serve on a damn resist buff except to piss me off? Not even Champion has a damn 5 minutes re-cast!

Is this something that was feedbacked in Beta? Is this something we should start screaming about now? Discuss...

It is more resist than Tribunal.

Ok well honestly with the 5 min charge and NON-MGBable... Yet TGB-able spell.... It's fixed to work on our groups... I've loaded this spell 3 or 4 times... Tried to MGB it 1 time (didn't work).... In most raids we have 2 shaman... So looks like max 2 grps getting this buff... With 50% AA's +35% (Wurine Guard) it lasts about 60 some odd min... - 5 to charge = 55 min for a minor upgrade in PR/DR... Sure the Clr buff stacks on it... In the End the +corruption augs are going to be the key since to require the use of the MOSTLY WORTHLESS spell... I thought we had enough with this BS "Situational" spell CRAP!!!
Seriously how often do you use that pathetic excuse for an Idol... (Happy with malis line that's nice, and what we wanted...) or our wonderful HUNGRY PLAUGE (Resisted by a plethora of creatures), This spell is going in my I'll mem it of the Raid Leader Requires it, Sloth at least has some value... The Idol of Death...err Malos I use maybe 1 or two places in a raid (Still on F8 target...wich is BS) But hey this is another spell for us to complain about! (Invigorate Line, Lack of Bih'li/SoW upgrade (we got it first and ours is the slowest/least useful, Idol of Malos, and of course Hungry Plague...Not really mentioned but we priest were all equal with cures yet clr/pal now the have best (most useful) cures, or how our HOT's+Regen have always been better or = to CLR HOT until GoD) (LoY fixed the balance with stoicism) Seriously I'd be happy if my HoT's could keep a grp alive vs the AE's and DoT's 680 a tick (1360 crit) vs 2k Tick DoT's or 6-10k AE's I feel like I'm using a bandage... We're a Priest Class our slow+regen+canni+heals = Clr w/o slow (lvl 1-50's), Druid well they pay the price for being a utility priest class as we pay the price for Canni... But the Gap has gotten so big that if you want to do rewarding content you have to have healer+slower+tank or find a Kiting spot... Excuse me for this tangent...)

Summary:
This spell is a mem once in a Blue Moon... because of the Absurd timer on it... rk 1 it's 2, then 3, then 5 to corruption (more then clr buff at same rank)... So it doesn't seem like it's that usefull in my book... With the WASTED spell gem... I guess having several boxed Alt shaman at a raid could relieve us of this buhurden.(and invalidate the so called "purpose" of this spell) Seriously it's not that hard to do...
As a main this is an Affront to our position practically a slap in our face... I don't see the validity of this mostly worthless spell. I see many feel this way also.
