Oh stop. Balance druids are viable solely because of starsurge. Sheesh.
Yes 
It really is that simple.
It still needs some tuning.
Either reduce the range, prevent the range talents from increasing the range, and it needs to cost more mana. Possibly make a mana return option something like this maybe
Change the mana cost to 10% base mana cost instead of 1%, but the next damaging casted spell within 5 seconds restores 9% of the druids base mana. This would be essentially a nonexistent nerf in pve, but a pvp the druid will likely not get the chance to do that cast to get the mana back.

First sensible response still involving a nerf I’ve yet to read. Honestly, I’m open to it being the standard 36 yards instead of 42, or giving it a mana return mechanic as you said.
Nerfing its damage, its cast time, or its cd though is just out of the question; it would just adversely affect our performance metrics compared to the other dps specs so much that we might drop back to the bottom of the totem pole again. And there does HAVE to be some kind of mana conserving or regenerating component to it; the vanilla moonkin’s greatest bane was running out of mana super quick. Plus druids get less mp5 from spirit than other classes, so, yeah.
After yesterdays news, Blizzard needs to scale back and focus on what’s important, SoD is not on that list thus it should be closed and before anyone starts complaining… SoD was not intended on being a perm server. So lets not loose sight of that. When you wake up and find all of your level 25’s gone and the server is closed.
lol
