I’m pretty sure I theorized an Icy Touch Spam AKA Icy Slam build come 3.3.3 somewhere. For interest’s sake, here’s a quick build I intend playing around with. It’s a DW build but could probably be modified easily enough to utilise a 2Her. Yes it’s unconventional. No Rime? No Annihilation? Lolwut, I hear you ululate?

The basic idea is just spam the hell out of Icy Touch. Rotation is as simple as IT, IT, BS, BS, PS, PS, RP Dump (Frost Strikes), IT, IT, IT, IT. For AoE, work in HB’s and DnD, possibly Pest a PS if you’re feeling particularly anal retentive.

Word on the steet is that preliminary Icy Touch spamming is doing monster single target TPS, more than could ever be necessary. Initially we may laugh at the prospect but the reality is that high-threat tanks tend to monopolize raid maintanking and if Icy Slam is allowed to streak ahead we will become the new OP FOTM.

Which is why I doubt this change will last, and why everything I’ve written here is probably going to be invaluated before the end of the week.

I have to wonder, though, why this wasn’t spotted on the PTR.
