Yeah it really isn't an "exploit" or an "issue." there are other classes, like bloodmage, that are able to switch stances every gcd.
Not well-known enough to stop this thread from being made. ;P And for what it's worth, there are plenty of examples in gaming history of exploits going unfixed even though they were well known. Sometimes the devs are busy with other things, sometimes they think the cure would be worse than the disease, sometimes they just don't want to upset the players who are enjoying the status quo.
I keep BG up at all times and can put out a fair parse even if its not a main priority of mine. You just have to gear up for that purpose.
I'm curious, which patron are you? I'm just mid-level and thus far disappointed that I can't realistically turn BG on as a Hayatet unless I'm doing nothing but casting heals. If I can get enough endurance regen gear later to counteract the cost, I'll be pleased.
A possibly derailing question, didn't the Rakurr Shaman class buff (the one that also drops an illusion) used to have an endurance regeneration modifier on it? I remember it was broken for quite some time. I remember playing the other day and realizing that there was no more endurance regen. I can't remember if the spell description itself still claims to add it.
skin of rakurr 3 give 5% mitigation Health , endurance and energy. 18% to melee damage , movement by 75% and 12% in critical hit change and avoidance the buff is self only
I know that the endo regen portion of this ability was bugged and did not work for quite some time. I had heard that they fixed it. But, as with all things in VG, that can change on a weekly basis. If you notice that your endo is regening at only 10 per tick while the buff is on, then it isn't working. I would /bug it.
the big boost for keeping bosrid's going and using endurance eating abilities as a shaman is to have bear buffs... the endurance regen of bear buffs makes it much easier, add to that a disc and pally and you are usually able to keep most things going fine without worring about bosrids dropping. now with birds if they'd only lower or remove the endurance costs on some of your patron specific abilities...
I'm pretty sure it's not working. I will keep a close eye on it this evening and do a /bug report if needed!
