Problems That Will Remain After 2.4

The patch has done nothing to address Shaman issues except for dispel resistance on our spells (its barely a bone, in many Shaman's opinions) and Earth Shield requires being cast almost twice as often for just under half the same mana cost from what I've been hearing (damn 4 day queues to get onto the Test server), which end up causing problem sin PvP because we need to cast it more often, eating up valuable GCDs.

However, there are other problems that still remain. Below is a summarized list of problems that have yet to be address, or even acknowledged / commented on by Blizzard:

Rockbiter, Flametongue, and Frostbrand all either scale horribly, or are all together useless. (Namely Rockbiter)

Pet Control Issues. Nothing beats having a 20 minute cooldown go oom in 20 seconds out of its 120 second duration, or having it break CC, or run off an pull adds.

The Totem System is outdated and is in need of revision. It's good in theory, but poor in reality.

Lack of pushback outside of 4-piece arena gear. Some of us Elemental Shaman farm. Why be pigeon-holed and forced to sacrifice +hit and +damage for a resilience set just to keep from being delayed on spell casts?

Enhancement spec shut down by snares, with no gap closing abilities / abilities to mitigate being kited like other melee specs and classes.

Elementals inability to escape, combat immunities, or combat being locked out.

Enhancement itemization. We don't need MP/5 or Intellect. That's what Water Shield and Shamanistic Rage are for. We also have Shamanistic Focus to help even more. Why do we still need MP/5 or Intellect? This makes non-set pieces better than the Enhancement tier sets because our stat points are being eaten up by stuff we don't need.

Restoration Shaman, along with Holy Paladins, being the most immobile healers. Shaman are in an even worse situation because they cannot cleanse / remove CCs or prevent an assist train like a Paladin can, but that's another topic for another day.

Just to name a few. Should we be expected to wait for an expansion to have this sort of thing fixed, when specs like Retribution have gotten changes to help them with runners, PvE raid viability, and alleviating their reliance on +damage stats? No, we shouldn't, especially when these changes should've occured over a year ago when we should've gotten the other half of the review that we were told would be coming.

I can guarantee that out of that list up there, most Shaman will quit because of at least 2 or more of those, ESPECIALLY the Enhancement Shaman who enjoy PvP. Now, do I personally want all of these fixed? NO! Of course not. It would be unreasonable to expect all of these fixed. Would I like them to at least be addressed to some extent? YES! That's what I would expect from a company, especially when they have made requests for feedback.

A note to posters: Don't reply with any arguments pertaining to PvE DPS, performance, etc...WE KNOW WE ARE GOOD IN PVE, the issue is itemization and PvP. So don't waste my time.
