So 1st of all Thank you for listening and fixing swipe!! this has been huge!!
Also there feels like there has been an unlisted change to Lacerate’s threat
Also feels like Mangle’s threat has been reduced but that could just be me?
I still firmly believe we should have access to both Mangle and Lacerate at the same time.
I also feel SOTF rune really needs to be swapped for skull bash on our leg slot… it makes so much more sense…
otherwise Druid Tanks are more or less fixed! we dont need more AOE we dont need more TPS just some clunkyness fixed tbh
and again TY for listening and we all know this is a work in progress!

Yup, the threat changes are great but still held back by the awful rune placement for bears. I can understand them not wanting bears to have wild strikes and survival of the fittest but swapping lacerate and skull bash would be amazing.
I really dont understand why they dont want bears to have WS and SOTF??
Shaman tanks can bring WF and take their survival rune… how is that different?

I can confirm, I was able to tank a dungeon!!! I love the change to swipe. I was even in feral dps spec (so no extra rage on crit) and it felt good.

yea swipe is great!!
I tested the mangle+swipe build in gnomer… I will be lacerate next time XD it really did feel like mangle was doing a noticeably less amount of threat than b4 the 20th but again I am unsure…
the Druid disc seems to feel lacerate also got its threat modifier changed on the 20th as well.
It is very nice being an actual class now instead of a windfury bot. But I seriously hope they go back and heavily rework and move around alot of the druid runes. Half of the resto ones are embarrassingly bad, and the placement for bear ones make no sense.

Yea man I agree please like and comment on these posts every bit of attention we get helps!
Happy for Bears to get a much needed change.
While having access to Mangle and Lacerate would be nice, I think the bigger ask is for SotF and SB to be swapped.

Yes I would agree 100%
Personally Id love an actual threat modifier to Mangle(bear)
lacerate and mangle at the same time
However I doubt that will happen and i am unsure of the balance of this
but SOTF and SB swap NEEDS to happen
I don’t know soapy, I almost feel like it’s time for bears to quiet down and fly under the radar. You know what happens once the forums turn on you lol

yea man I get ya but its such an obvious change that needs to happen with SOTF and my comments on youtube videos about it get so many likes… people more or less seem to agree here as well… just swap the runes blizz admit your mistake… we understand this was all trial and error but lets face it this was an error.
I don’t think Bear tanks should have access to 30% bleed damage and Wild Strikes but that’s just me.
we do… lol?
are you saying we shouldnt be able to take mangle and WS?
You should be able to, but at a cost. Which we currently do. Allows for Feral DPS to have a chance of joining groups, why take a Cat when a Bear provides all?
Weren’t you the Druid I was in a debate with about Lacerate being better threat wise than Mangle? hmmmm
this doesn’t make any sense to me? what cost are you talking about?
Yet. Again I don’t think the WS and SOTF should be on different rune slots I like the choice. If you want WS and SoTF then get another Feral Druid with you. Simple Soluition.
Yes I probably was… but testing has shown Lacerate is more threat since the 20th.
It was more threat before hand as well. I tested it myself so many ways.
yea that is fine now… however in the future you are now stacking LOTP twice in the tank group for no reason and that seems like bad game design?
