Which was ruled unnecessary due to the fact that it took all controlled burst away from a shaman if they had anyone even looking at them. I'm not sure how many people pvp here as a shaman, I'm guess it's closer to a major minority rather than a majority, but being in a 2200 5s for the first two seasons and being 2100+ at the beginning of s3 (no teams now, *sadface*) I found it next to impossible to cause any real burst damage as soon as a pet/rogue/warrior/enh shaman/CoTongues, etc. was placed on me. Without the NS+EM+CL -> Shock I really wouldn't have been much for my team other than a damage sponge, and there's a lot better specs/classes to do that.
