Also, Tremor Totem is far more valuable than Fear Ward, so no thanks.

my ass it is

Windfury doesnt stack with consumable items that you put on your weapon, things like the +2 crit % on your weapon go away when you use it.

Also the totem version of the spell only gives 1 extra attack(best for people who use 2h) and gives about 1/2 the attack bonus of shaman self windfury.

It wouldn't have to be the buff added directly to the person.

"Afflicts the target with Fury of the Four Winds, this effect is as follows; When struck by melee, the attacked has a chance to take the hit twice, with the second hit being at 125% the origional hit's damage, summoning an air totem dispells this effect"

Make it happen around 15-20% of the time, like windfury totem, and whala, huge dps boost, to offset the raid-wide buffs that paladins get, and add "stackability" to shaman totems.

Tie the debuff to a person (not hard, since they do it for aggro purposes anyways), and it acts like a raid-wide windfury, such as the person judgement totem idea is. It could even be described with lore--such as the shaman learns to call forth the ancient spirits within the totem to afflict the target.

I like the idea.
