As a longtime cat DPS player, I agree. Blizzard should put their coders to work and make powershifting be fun again. At this point, it doesn’t matter if it was intended or unintended… We want to have FUN.
This change will make me not want to play TBC - please revert this change. Feral was the only thing making me want to play TBCC.
All I want is an actual blue response saying if they’ll look into the change. This thread blowing up so much and the replies supporting it show how many people care about this.
My druid is my only 60. There are 2 bears already in my current guild’s 40man raid group. My only real option to stay feral is to switch to bear and and then find a completely new guild that actually needs one.
My game time runs out next week and idk if it’s worth buying more just to level an alt.
Agreed. Please Revert!
Please let cats have fun, Blizzard.
just cancelled my account.
This is really lame
Paladins getting cross faction seals for balance reasons. Druids should be getting their energy ticks. The change is clearly documented as unintended in 2.4.3. Please fix.
Other classes have been changed to a different version of their 2.4.3 counterparts in an effort to keep their identity and fun gameplay ( see seal twisting and giving both factions both seals ).
Ferals were already a low tier dps class even with classic’s energy tick iteration or the .4 caster form one. Now they’re even lower in the dps rankings, but most importantly, the rotation is slower and more boring.
Please Blizzard, make our spec fun to play again.
isnt feral not supposed to be fun / good until WOTLK?
They made a spec that isn’t supposed to be fun?
Yes please for the love of God. Everyone share this and get it reverted please, absolutely ridiculous change
+1 for vanilla energy. It’s not as if your next raid is going to have 18 feral druids if you give them 20 energy, it’s a decision that’s in line with changes made to TBC so far.
Very well written. This hits all the points. Just adding my voice to the crowd; please consider #somechanges so that the spec remains engaging and fun.
xd pls hav merce
While I’m aware that the energy behavior added this morning matches how it worked in the latter half of TBC, feral druids are in agreement that this was an unnecessary and likely unintended change which greatly affected the viability and enjoyment of feral cat. TBC Classic has introduced a variety of changes in other areas of the game to boost player enjoyment, and I think that reverting these changes are within that scope. For me it’s much less about the damage than it is about the playstyle, it’s a very clear step down from the gameplay in Vanilla Classic.
Honestly, while I do want powershifting to return to the state it was in classic where you get energy regen every 2s, on the second, I first and foremost want blizzard to actually state how they plan on addressing the issue if at all so I can stop holding my breath over the issue. Seriously, this issue has been known for weeks, and every new version of powershifting has been wrong to some degree, it’s like they’re taking shots in the dark. @blizzard please just say something
This is frustrating… I mean if you are wanting to push us away from PS than lower the shred energy cost and empower our bite. Make it where energy actually rewards us vice holding us back. To eliminate 20 energy in our rotation is painful. Classic and TBC is slow enough in the rotation anyways, so doing this will only make it slower.
I guess the good news is I can keep up-to-date with my current TV shows during raid easier since my rotation will be MUCH SLOWER… and boring!!!

please don’t destroy the one thing making kitty remotely interesting
Bump bump, fix the tick please blizzard. Don’t ignore our plea.
Still waiting on a formal response from blizzard. I’m in no rush to buy boosts till this is addressed
