i put this talent tree (http://talents.unleashedgaming.net/?p=vt&i=16815) together from ideas i've had and some interesting tidbits i came across on the forums. tell me what you think, particularly the areas that might be OP.

moonglow that high in the tree strikes me as insanely powerful.

As it is now, if you take Moonglow you give up tree form(as crappy as it is, it's 20% less mana on HoTs).

Being able to take Moonglow and tree form together basically means you can heal indefinately. Or having Swiftmend, Moonglow, Lunar Guidance, and Dreamstate altogether. I believe that's why Moonglow, Lunar Guidance, and Dreamstate are as far down as they are. Threat reduction is nice.

Your Imp Moonkin aura has no number listed on the mana% gained.

Zehpyr Embrace is OP'd. Essentially what you end up with is a 12 second CC spell that can't be dispelled that has a .5 sec cast time. Add to that that the target can't be healed by allies even and doesn't heal while cycloned and it's just crazy.

i see what you mean about moonglow, ill have to fiddle around with that and get it further down the tree.

as for the % gained by imp aura, i went with 2%, which even at a pool of 10,000 only gives back 200, so as to avoid a never-ending wrath cast.

with ZE im trying to make cyclone more useful in terms of PvE. as it is a 6 sec CC where you spend a quarter of that time casting it is pretty much useless, unless you are using it as a short-term CC (i.e. keep a mob off you while your healing so the tank can snag it). if you are balance and attempting to fill in the role of a casting DPS class it is extremely limiting to not have a viable form of CC, especially when so many of the instances in BC -require- CC. i made it 12 seconds because that is half the time of a mage's sheep and the warlock banish. as to the .5 cast time, that could certainly be left out or brought up to 1 sec.

what about the tree summon buff and the 41 point talent?
