Wonder if they fixed the way its damage works, might be why it was nerfed. It's supposed to be physical damage, but I was getting mobs that were Immmune to it (Pretty much any Elemental seemed to be)

Simple.
Devs can't balance a spreadsheet much less ingame damage, so just nerfs across the board.

It's basically not taking your spell power co-efficient.

I wouldn't doubt a nerf. Everyone was crying that we were one button raping the meters on trash lawl.

I would guess that it's intentional. The same thing happened to a lot of the other aoe spells with 4.0. Mind sear has been doing damage in the same range (5-800 ish) since 4.0 and has for all intents and purposes been nerfed into uselessness.
It definitely does make you wonder why they thought earthquake was worthy of being at the top of the tree instead of a trained talent though. I sure as hell wouldn't spend a point on mind sear in its current state, especially as a 31 point talent. Maybe when people don't spec into earthquake they'll take another pass at the numbers or give you guys a better top tier talent.

You have to get Earthquake to go into other trees.
edit: Or not, just have to put 31 points in... Sweet, skipping that talent for now.

Perhaps..but you'd think if that were the case they would've taken care of the even bigger offenders... Demo Locks and Frost DKs are still pretty sick on their AOE.
BTW, it's terrible what they've done to mind sear. I hope they tweak it some. It's garbage for now.

maybe they reduced the coefficient on purpose to balance out the fact that it has the knockdown effect? or maybe they just figure that between magma totem, fire nova and earthquake shaman had too much aoe if played right.
granted i still find magma totem and flame nova a hassle since elemental is a ranged spec. we need to be able to throw totems.

Yeah, I rarely used magma totem and flame nova and still topped the ae meters.
