Party-wide buffs like Shaman totems will be reviewed
Will Shaman totems stay party-wide? Blizzard means to review that, per its latest podcast.

- raids
Wowhead reports that Blizzard said on its latest podcast that it intends to review whether party buffs, Shaman totems among them, should remain party-wide. A party-wide buff reaches only the members of the caster’s own party, not everyone in the raid.
No change has been announced. Wowhead’s article, mostly its own case for and against raid-wide buffs, ends on the hope of an update before launch on November 4.
In Forever’s client files at build 1.60.1.70205, a Warrior’s Battle Shout still targets the caster’s party .
Why it matters: a change would decide whether buffs like these reach your whole raid or only your party.
