Druid changes in patch 2.3

Here is a small list of changes to the Druid class that are expected to be implemented in the next content patch:

    * Rebirth cooldown reduced to 20 minutes, from 30 minutes.

    * Tranquility now gains additional benefit from spell damage and healing bonuses.

    * Cure Poison and Abolish Poison are now usable in Tree of Life Form.

    * Remove Curse is now usable in Moonkin Form.

    * Intensity (Restoration) increased to 10/20/30% mana regeneration.


Update:

    * /cancelform will be recognized instantly. It should work the same way as /dismount works currently.

This one is particularly interesting for ferals. Many believe that it will make it possible to switch out of a form, do something that doesn't trigger the global cooldown, and then switch back into another form - all in one single keypress.

So it'll mean instant switching between forms, and instant potting/healthstoning.

you could do that before as well.. not in 1 keypress, but by spamming a macro. It worked wonders smile - bad side is, that when you are tanking, you loose all your rage, but i think it will be exiting to work some of the stuff out, that you can do with this smile

There is one disturbing piece of news though...

Apparently instant shifting doesn't work when you are switching to the same form that you left. This means that you cannot make a single keypress macro that:

1. Leaves bear form
2. Uses pot/stone
3. Enters bear form

However, you can make a macro that:

1. Leaves bear form
2. Uses pot/stone
3. enters cat form

Meh...hopefully just a bug smile

(we should just be allowed to pot like everyone else, regardless of form)

Re: Druid changes in patch 2.3

okay, new patch on the PTR...

New changes to druids are:
You can direct shapeshift between forms from the "shapeshifting" bar - so no need to make macros anymore smile

You can go bear > pot > bear now as showed on this screenshot:

Re: Druid changes in patch 2.3

additional:

lets say you are in bearform and need to heal...
Old times you would need to do the following: shift out (instant) locate and press Healing touch. between the shift out and the healing, there would be alittle lag. But now you simply just press healing touch and you will step out and heal, without writing a macro or anything smile - additional, i have read, that if you are silenced etc, you wont step out of form (like you would with a macro)

but i cant do it the other way. If i try to mangle in bearform i just get the message that its only available in bearform. - same goes with catform, and you cant do stuff like: beeing in bearform, and then cast prowl to get into stealth instant.
