Here's some things I'd like to see on a druid:
Non-combat rez with NO COOLDOWN. Yes combat rez is cool, but unless there's a healer you want to rez for wipe prevention, how often do you use it? Maybe allow rebirth to have no CD, but if a combat rez is preformed apply a debuff to the druid so that he cannot combat rez again for 20 minutes? Maybe still make it cost seeds, but overall that would increase the druid's rezzing abilities.
Or maybe a 5-minute CD non-combat rez that would rez an entire group. If a group wipes more than once in a 5-minute period something else is wrong, and in raids a druid can rez a group full of healers, who can then turn around and rez the rest of the group (sort of a more efficient assembly line).

Another thing that would be cool is an AoE form of regrowth with a cooldown, i.e. heals the target for X and heals the target's party members within 20 yards for Y over 9 seconds. An ability such as this would be great to use either right before or right after an AoE.

The only thing that i have heard that they are giving us so far is a spell called reverse innervate......what is that you ask? quite simple regular innervate does +400% or your mana regen.....reverese does -400% mana regen so say a person has 100 mana per five seconds, pop it on them and now they are gettign drained for 300 mana per 5 seconds and seeing how 100 is a rediculously low number for an amount of mana regen for somebody to have, just imagine what that can do

Let's not turn personal speculation into a supposed blizzard statement, mkay?

Reverse Innervate...lawls

Blizzard is (understandably) cautious about giving a class with stealth a normal rez as well. Wipe recovery and bypassing large sections of the instance would be a lot easier in a lot of places. Still, at this point it's time to give it up.

I can understand that reasoning as to why we have an available resurrection that is on a 30-minute (well now 20) cooldown that costs a reagent, but there are times where the only person in a group is a druid. Wipe recovery is far faster with a non-druid healer whom was soulstoned.

Regardless of that, I would like to see the ability to downrank a resurrection spell to conserve mana. This way the priest, paladin and/or shaman who was soulstoned or had an Ankh available can resurrect anyone else who can resurrect far faster than they can currently. As the folks are resurrected and grab a manna biscuit or whatever, they can then use downranked resurrection skills to continue resurrecting the raid. Presently the first person up can resurrect maybe 3 people before they have to sit for mana. Using rank 1 of their spell they can probably give every class who can in turn resurrect others a chance to stand up and begin the wipe recovery.

I'm under the impression that all classes with rez abilities can already do this.

They can down rank, but I just checked on my druid, all levels of Rez cost the same mana. Don't know about other classes though.

It's the same cost for all ranks for all classes. The only difference is that the rez costs more for some classes. For example, Redemption costs 64% of base mana while Ancestral Spirit costs 72%. So yeah, the cost will go up as you level up. (Base mana is how much mana based on your Int before any modifier from your gear)

I still don't understand that logic. As it stands, there is nothing stopping people from doing the same thing right now. As long as there is someone else with an OoC res in the group, then there is no issues. Got a feral tank? Group wipes, druid stealths back and resses the healer who proceeds to res the rest of the group. All druid OoC res would do is cut out the middle man.

I think it's more of having a druid stealth past a bunch of hard guys, others in group take gear off, run in, die, druid rezzes, they gear up and carry on.

It can be done now, but only once every 20 mins, whereas otherwise you could bypass the whole dungeon in some cases.

We have used a similar shortcut in Karazhan once. A druid and another stealthed class stealth from shade through to just before chess (near the repair guy). Just across the gap is the rest of the group on the ramp outside shades room. A warlock suicides using life tap then hellfire. The druid battle rezzs the lock and now the lock is over near the chess event. You can then summon the rest of the group over and you have bypassed all the trash.

The downside is if you wipe on Prince, you have to do it all again :) (If you don't have a useable ankh or ss etc.

Aside from indoor rooting, I've also heard that Blizz is going to be adding in some kind of new Moonkin-only nuke spell which requires you to be in said form. I don't know if it's true or not, though. I was told by a guildie who didn't cite any sources. Could've been messing with me... Has anyone else heard this?

Source it, or I keep throwing the bs flag.

And yes, I watched all the panels at blizzcon.

Nevermind how ridiculous the name sounds, but that's one of the things that gives Priest a unique advantage...I can't imagine they'd just toss another class a bone that is even more powerful, especially considering Druid is already borderline imba in pvp when done right.

Would sound okay as a Balance spell/talent, give them more of a chance in arena viability.
#22 Dec 21 2007 at 7:09 AM Rating: Good
WorldofRaids mentioned it in their news with a link to the source but I didn't pay much attention.

Just a blue saying it may be changed in the expansion. Nothing definite.
