Moonkin Form: This form now also reduces the damage the druid takes while stunned by 15%.
Typhoon: The knockback distance from this spell has been increased to match Thunderstorm.

Uhm... Attempts to make balance more pvp viable?

Yes please!

Typhoon is gonna be amazing, even moreso for pvp and the whole fact damage is reduced while stunned makes rogues much easier to handle.

Balance of Power: Misleading tooltip reworded. The tooltip previously reported an incorrect value for the increased chance to hit with spells. The actual benefit of the talent is unchanged.

Hehe i didnt think the extra hit we got would last long Smiley: cry

* Predatory Strikes: This talent now also causes the druidâ€™s finishing moves to provide a 7/13/20% chance per combo point to make the next Nature spell with a cast time below 10 seconds instant cast.

lolwhat?

Edit: Unless healing spells are considered "nature". If that's the case, this is an interesting change.

You'll be able to instant cast any healing spell, any balance spell, this includes wrath/roots/cyclone/insect swarm.

Thats pretty badass imo.

Starfire is considered Arcane, isn't it? And Insect Swarm is an instant cast by default, isn't it? Smiley: tongue

Just saying, it would be pretty silly to blow the instant cast on an instant cast.

As a BG'er, I'm not liking this, but since we get it for free with Predatory Strikes, I couldn't give a rat's ***.

I just have this feeling that this whole instant cast nature spell thing is gonna be treated much like eclipse was when it first came out. There was this huge uproar over how it was this controversial talent and everyone thought it was terrible, myself included.

Then the testing happened, more testing and then finally someone was like "Oh hey guys, eclipse is pretty pro."

There was much rejoicing.

nature spells for druids is basically anything except starfire, moonfire, starfall and teleport moonglade.

everything else falls under the umbrella of "nature". for a bit of personal proof, duel a mage and cast healing touch. have that mage CS healing touch. every spell that is put on cooldown? thats a nature spell. i think even soothe animal and hibernate fall under this jurisdiction.
