Patch 0.8 Call of the Elements
Call of the Elements, version 0.8, is dated 26 Oct 2026. Shaman joins the roster. The two specs at launch are Restoration and Enhancement. The class rule in the notes is one totem of each element in the ground and a single elemental shield active. That is stricter than a pile of totems, and it is the constraint I would plan around.
Spell names I am willing to list come from the independent database, marked as a single source: Riptide, Healing Stream Totem, Earth Shield and Spirit Link on the restore side; Stormstrike, Searing Totem, Earthbind and Bloodlust on the enhance side. Shared tools include Lightning Bolt, Earth Shock, Wind Shear, Ghost Wolf, Purge and Hex. I am not attaching damage values. The shaman guide repeats the list next to later changes, including the 0.18 note that Searing Totem lasts 10 seconds and can be tab-targeted.
With Shaman, the class count hits nine. Druid was already in from 0.6, Warlock from 0.5, Paladin and Hunter from 0.4. Balance as a third druid spec arrives in 0.20, dated 29 Oct 2026: three days later.
