Tips[]

Useful for dealing with mobs that constantly deals out disease debuffs when soloing.

Most useful when dealing with mobs or bosses that can afflict diseases on several party members.

The totem will cleanse all members within the effective radius, thus keeping the party in peak performance. Not to mention this will save the shaman some mana as opposed to cleansing one by one.

Notes[]
