According to a post by ForeverFallout, the following, amongst other things, may be in the works for balance druids:

Lunar Guidance changed to 4%/8%/12%


I'm leveling a balance druid and just started to put points into Lunar Guidance. It seems to me to be a worthwhile talent. However I'm a bit concerned abou the changes being made. I'm not an expert on the druids, so I figured I'd ask more veteran druid players what their opinion on this was. In the greater scheme of things, is this major or nothing to be getting overly worked up over?

I haven't looked at the other new talents in Balance in about a week, but I seem to remember one that adds part or all of your +healing to your +damage. If that's the case, Lunar Guidance is probably being balanced against this other talent. If not, I wouldn't worry too much. WotLK is still in Alpha testing, there's a lot of talent tweaking still to go.

pretty much what astarin said.

also, im going to just say this now and get it over with; the xpac is still in alpha, which means it has a LONG way to go. knowing blizzard, they probably wont make their deadline of last quarter '08, so dont base any decisions about how you want to play your druid on xpac info. all the xpac stuff is currently irrelevant; play what makes you happy in the here and now.

the roots indoors and instant cast changes look great. sucks when you are trying to help AOE and have to wait 1 min between usefulness. the roots indoors would actually make moonkins viable CC too.
