The Spirit Realm

has issues. Specifically, the focus effect is ... how do we say... weaker than Mr. Weak Weakerson of Weaksville. 25% spell-specific extension is just -wow- level of terrible, even glossing over how bad the original spell is with two-minute recast. Every shaman at this level of the game can't help but have a focus effect already that's more general, and at least as strong.

Various classes effected very positive changes in their class-only items from Vishimtar. I think shaman need to exert themselves on this very weak class-only item from Demiplane.

No disrespect intended; but c'mon, let's focus on issues the entire class has, not just those in high-end raiding guilds and the like. I have a lot of respect for those of you who have put that much time and effort into your character to be at that point in the game, and I hope that one day I will be there too, but honestly, I think it's going to be difficult trying to get enough support on an issue that concerns the few and not the many. Best of luck in your efforts.

The class as a whole does not have any major issues. Where as this item has serious issues with its focus.

I think that the high end of the game is what shaman (all players) are aiming toward. If the pinacle of class loot isn't good, then what is progression for? Dreadspire and Demiplane are limited access now, but so was PoTime a couple years ago. Now, Time's Antithesis is something every shaman can aspire to.

Further, I think you did intend disrespect. I think your post is just another one of those saying "shush, you're too uber to have issues."

Needs to be fixed and not just by slapping a measly 5% on the extension, but changing the focus to affect another spell entirely.
