“Code it. Stop stepping on my bear paws. Thanks.”

“So lots of people are rage quitting because of PTR notes, they haven't been up for that long. Folks should wait till blizzard decides what will actually make it to live then if they're not happy they can quit. It's like seeing PTR saying dr…”

“PVP wise and pretty much pve wise. Losing Losing instant roots, Losing bear dmg Losing bleed dmg Losing shapeshift root break. FREAKING HUGE Losing tree form duration (I can handle that) Losing Omen of clarity heal procs and with resto only…”

“Fellow druids I welcome you to this gathering of wisdom, the recent events that have unfolded before our very eyes is indeed disturbing....even now the evil ones discuss amongst themselves how they can defile the essence of our class. THIS …”

“This is ridiculous and you know it, Blizzard. I'm not even bothering to go into your proposed changes because they are ludicrous. Never before in all the years I've played wow have I seen any class get destroyed by so many nerfs at once as …”

“Just wondering since most restos do not go mastery currently, will you switch over to get more mastery when the patch comes out that will boost the effect we get with it? Or do you think INT will still reign supreme over all else?”

“2 days from now: Shapeshifting change reverted Instead, mana costs on forms increased by 400%, Predatory swiftness removed, nature's grasp back down to 1 charge, Infected wounds back to stacking system, etc. Just wait. Massive nerf announce…”

“This is my prediction of ferals after patch 4.0.6: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Bmhjf0rKe8”

“Wrath: Alright this is cool, I have immunity to fear for 30 seconds, can shift out of snares at the cost of a gcd, Can instant cast a cyclone occasionally to help control a fight/burn someone down... Round 1: Sure, we have to put savage roa…”

“I first started playing my feral druid in TBC and fell in love with it. I've dabbled elsewhere, but I always come back to my druid. What makes him fun and interesting to me? Here's the priority list. 1) Shapeshifting restores his movement 2…”

“In so far as all the nerfs go, it looks like mangle is getting a buff at least. That aside, is feral tanking viable? If no, what spec is? It looks to me aside from tree of life being removed as a permanant form, druid healing remains mostly…”

“I've played as feral since BC, did horrible dps etc etc, but still had alot of fun. I'd actually be willing to see our damage revert to what it was, if it meant we still had our shapeshifting left as it is. This is more than "being op" or A…”

“You'll still be above hunters in pvp.”

“.”

“Remeber your cast bar bieng full of differant levels of healing touch? Keeping that innervate for yourself in Molten core and saying you gave it to the priest just cause you knew you were outhealing everyone in the raid, with the least over…”

“I'm not sure if I'll get an actual response from a blue for this. I know they read over the forums often, and probably know that after the nerf to druids, there'll be a lot of rage here. But maybe they'll change their minds... there's alway…”

“I just started pvping with my feral druid a couple days ago, haven't even farmed up a pvp set yet. I usually pve heal and used to pve tank pre cata. I keep hearing people talking about feral druids getting a huge nerf, however everything I …”

“1) Stealth 2) Dash 3) Nature's Grasp 4) Instant Root (Is it too late to include that as a bargaining chip?) I'll also through these in, but you'll have to purchase them from the druid trainer: 1) Stampeding Roar 2) Wild Mushrooms 3) CLAW!! …”

“If we are going to have our root break completely removed and there is nothing we can do about it, then make feral charge stun the target. Removing root break is basically going to turn us into a squishy version of warriors, and warrior cha…”

“Hi guys sorry to interrupt all the QQ about those nerfs and buffs (what are blizzard employees thinking?????). But i ll guess we ll have to stick with it or they ll just realized HUGE mistake they ve done and will give us our good old shape…”

“specifically to druids being unable to break roots with shifting. I was like "O.o" and then i was all "o.O" they are really making sweeping changes arent they? the two most mobile melee in the game were druids and warriors. both of them got…”

“I am here just do testify that I'm really sad with the changes to druids. This here, was my first character to reach the level cap, back in patch 2.2 of TBC. I've been feral ever since. It was hard, we were underpowered for most of TBC, and…”

“I think Efflorescence should be scrapped and re-written. Something unique and that offers much-needed raid utility: Efflorescence Empowers Wild Mushroom: Detonate to heal friendly targets within 10 yards of the Wild Mushroom for 2400 to 260…”

“Give Ferals a 40yard range on all attacks. Seriously, I don't understand the Shape-shifting nerf. Why? The other class I play is a Mage. I don't have problems with ferals one bit - ESPECIALLY when I switch to fire. If this change goes throu…”

“Well druid community , what if we could do are "changes" to are class instead?”

“I call upon my fellow druids to look at the black cloud of the upcoming shapeshifting nerf and find the silver lining. I'll start. This will free up my "Humanform" bind for another purpose. Perhaps I'll bind Stampeding Roar there!”

“(This is in respect to resto arena): The removal of shapeshifting (coupled with the lack of instant roots), will give druids no means whatsoever to escape from being trained, particularly if there is a mage nearby. Once tree-form has run ou…”

“Seriously. Paladins get Rebuke on a 10 second cooldown, we get Skull Bash... on a minute cooldown. What gives?”

“If you want to play as a pvp melee character why would you choose a feral? I think the recent changes probably ruined us, lets here some of your thoughts optimistic or not.”

“FERAL DRUIDS ARE NO LONGER VIABLE AT ALL UNDER CURRENT PATCH NOTES IN PVP! THIS IS A RESULT OF WHINING FROM EVERY OTHER CLASS IN THE GAME! IF WE DON'T DO THE SAME WE'RE DOOMED! Most of the whining was a result of not having any resilience. …”

“Ive read the sticky that states that 1 point of spirit now converts to 1 point of hit. The plus hit form spirit does not show up on the character sheet. Is the spirit/plus hit ratio still accurate?”

“I was having a great day at work. I was so productive that I treated myself to a 10 minutes break to read up on WoW and I saw the shifting nerf. My day is officially ruined. I have to go level another character now...”

“Back in BC we mages sucked. But, we QQ'ed and QQ'ed. And look at us now. We got one PVP spec that borders on godmode and two more that kinda suck. But in PVE all three specs are... well meh. But we've got frost, until the next patch notes a…”

“I'll start my saying that I took the Savage Defense and Stamina-scaling nerfs bending over. It was needed. However, in Cataclysm, we're doing about as well as other tanks. Some may argue that bears and death knights have better survivabilit…”

“We were the kings of carrying the flag for a short period, a measly 5 years. Now we'll have to use our trinket and be kited by ranged classes like everyone else. My fellow druids I, What? I'm a shaman? Huh.... well then. I'm gona go get som…”

“This future patch is really going to hurt our ability to have a defensive stance in PvP. You seem to be removing most of our abilities of getting away from people and keeping ourselves alive. Unlike the other healers, we rely a lot more on …”

“as of 2 minutes ago shapeshifting still breaks roots on the ptr,tooltips are different,they do not say they remove movement impairing effects anymore, they describe what each form is useful for I.E aquatic form good for traveling quickly un…”

“This is annoying...It's a small thing, but annoying...and NO IT'S NOT ANOTHER QQ PVP GRIPE! (wow, imagine that) In Moonkin form - cannot mount In Flight form - rarely un-shifts me anymore to do certain actions The mounting problem occurred …”

“I know there are other similar threads out there but I believe this issue deserves as much attention as possible, as it is the most important thing going on for druids at this time. I am not arguing that nerfs are not deserved. I have alway…”

“This is my only 85, the toon I rolled in vanilla, and the only toon I ever cared to play. Shapeshifting is all I know. Damn my aversion to Altitis.”

“Mage Nerf: Ring of Frost is complained about rampantly, so the duration is reduced to eight seconds. Result: EVERY CC in the game is reduced to eight seconds. Druid Nerf: Shapeshifting no longer removes root effects. Suggested Result: PvP T…”

“What would you give up to keep shapeshifting AS IS? 1. Thorns 2. Fury of Stormrage 3. Glyph of Healing Touch (lol) 4. New Tree Form Model ... What about you?”

“Hey I've only been playing for a month so I don't know much but I hear on these boards everyday how moonkin is getting screwed from nerfs targeted at ferals. Could they just make it so that shifting in and out of moonkin form broke roots? O…”

“since we can no longer SS out of snares can you please buff this a little. im thinking make it remove 2 spells or lower the mana cost because i have to cast 2 times to remove things like sheep or freeze and its cost is just crazy.”

“Hmmmm, does anyone get the feeling that the developers fear the possibility of the game returning to a BC style in which almost the majority of the population only PvPed due to the fact that the content was either considered hard and or too…”

“I have been watching the posts about this next patch and the massive nerfs to druids and have actively partaking in the forums about this, I have noticed the first 3 forums attempting to cop a plea to you have been deleted we ask you to qui…”

“They will revert this shapeshift change. After this is reverted we will be pacified and not complain about the numerous other nerfs.”

“Ok I know I am mad as hell also at this shapeshifting change. But you should take consideration that it was just implemented TODAY. Lets give it a bit of time and let them see that this change just like the "treeform being polymorphable" ne…”

“Seeing as how we can be poly immune and shift out of movement impairing effects, I understand the reasoning for making berserk not break or prevent fear in PvP. My issue with it is how it effects PvE. I'm wondering if it would be better ser…”

“So Ferals now become the easiest class to kill. We can be rooted like all other melee we can now be feared like all other melee... but wait we can be hibernated other melee cannot... we can be scare beast by hunters... other melee cannot. G…”
