is bliz gonna fix any of this stuff?

[Ravid-whitemane]

I quit in like October of last year. Sounds like literally none of this has been fixed.

Glad I made the right choice I’m sorry to hear my druid brothers are still suffering.

I tried bros

Speed bonuses aren’t applying properly from PVP set or cat form/sprint. Makes pvp way more difficult than it should be

Was especially afraid of this. Ironically, I posted this originally preemptively because based off of Blizzard’s past behavior, I knew that the PVP set bonus would be FOR SURE incorrect on live.

When I wrote that post, the PVP set wasn’t even in the game yet. Turns out I was right

Hearing stuff like this almost 6 months later honestly breaks my heart. I’m sorry you guys aren’t getting the experience you deserve

• Not being able to use travel form in Booth Bay (sic: s/b Booty Bay)is also frustrating and boggles the mind.

What gets me about no travel form in Booty Bay is that the Booty Bay cave/tunnel SHOULD cancel travel form and in-town shouldn’t.

Related: The inside/outside flag delay remains extremely annoying.

[Growlingbear-earthfury]

They are spells, you need spell hit…

[Askimos-barthilas]

good to see they still haven’t fixed not being able to switch to travel form when i’m clearly OUTSIDE.
Also threat still being random when tanking more than 3 mobs…

[Tweaked-incendius]

Hey bro, so maybe I can help you out.

First off, you do not have 30% crit against any raid boss. Your crit rate that is shown is your chance to crit against an equal opponent mob, so you need to adjust the calculation for your crit for a mob thats three levels higher then you…

I’ve played feral extensively in classic, and in retail, during vanilla, tbc, wotlk, ect ect ect.

Alot of the problems I’m reading here, I’m chalking up to players simply not understanding the actual game mechanics at play.

I can promise you, while their is 100% somethings at play for feral that still arnt right (certain debuffs we should be able to shift out of, exemption to SPECIFIC mc debuffs, ect), alot of the problems youre experiencing are… actually part of classic.

And even what I read about seal form breaking, it has always done that. I remember because I afk’d while swimming, and upon going into a new zone threshhold, it deshifted and i had a HUGE run back issue (graveyard ported me to barrens)

Dash should stay as a buff when you shift out?

What do you mean, should. Do you mean you think its accurate to vanilla for it to stay active when you shift out of cat?

Cause that wasnt the case. it would always remove the dash buff if you dropped cat form. Hence why timing your dash is important in matchups.

Also, I believe sub rogues are faster then cats at sprint. not all speed buffs stack past a certain point.

PVP is fine, I’ve done my share of WSG

"Must be Outdoors" error:

• This error is extremely annoying and applies to all classes , but specifically druids. There are countless locations across the world which are clearly OUTSIDE (minimap shows the sky not a cave or building), ground makeup is normal, and yet a druid is unable to use their important abilities like roots or travel form. Not only that, but they can’t mount. This is more of a global issue, but I’ve ran into HUNDREDS of locations where I can’t mount or use my abilities or travel form. Certain textures do not constitute being “outdoors” or not, and these need to be patched to properly reflect that fact.
• Not only can you not mount, but most of the time you are promptly DISMOUNTED, making the bug even more aggravating,

This is huge. Freewind post is indoors, unless on ramp to lift, yet UC in entirety is outside. Tops of zep towers are showing as inside.

Sometimes it seems like a wonky lag thing, where you will exit a building, like a WSG bade, and not be able to shift to travel form until at the GY.

@Ravid-whitemane

Mana draining while shifted:

• Druids are STILL being mana drained/burned while shapeshifted. Spells such as vipersting and mana burn continue to destroy druid’s mana even when they have no mana bar. This bug has been known since beta. I WATCHED a druid on a livestream report the bug after getting viperstinged in AV.

Wondered about this when a felhound chomped away all my mana when in cat form in wsg.

@Ravid-whitemane

Aquatic form unshifting

• Druids, at least tauren druids specifically, will unshift when near the top of the water randomly, forcing them to reshift back into seal, and forcing them to stay below the water instead of on the surface. Also, simply jumping from the water unshifts, which I feel is improper, because it makes it an ordeal to simply surface. There should be a minor delay to the spell to prevent an accidental unshift when simply jumping in the water. Makes the spell feel clunky and unpolished, especially combined with the tauren hitbox issues

This one as well. Water surface detection is off by a mile. I should not lose form simply by breaking the surface, or jumping like a seal.

this is entirely classic in nature though…

[Misadventure-herod]

Doesn’t matter at the end of the day, as it appears blizzard has no intention of fixing bugs, be they “vanilla-like” or not.

[Tweaked-incendius]

urm…

what exactly are you talking about?

numerous bugs have been fixed. Mana drains, talent application upon shifting, weapon skill being applied…

You are complaining that theyre not fixing things youre calling bugs. I’m trying to tell you, theyre not bugs due to the design gold of emulating the same quirks of vanilla.

you get that, right?

[Clefairy-kirtonos]

All druid forms are bug form.

Admittedly it was hyperbole, based on frustration of persistent things like out of sync mobs and corpse loot having priority over targeting mobs you are standing right in front of.

[Sql-stormrage]

Untrue, Diseases that slowed were cleansed by shift as a byproduct of freeing us from movement impairing effects.

[Stompinwin-kromcrush]

Diseases were never cleansed, poisons that slow were cleansed; diseases always persist through everything big difference one is cleansable by a shaman/priest only

[Sql-stormrage]

No.

Read what I said, the act of shifting freed druids from movement impairing effects.

In classic when you shifted ANY movement slow poison or disease which also had a movement impairing effect on it (or a magic effect like Garr’s slow for example) it would be removed by the shift.

This is an identical mechanic to rogues improved sprint.

Which also cleared everything which had a movement impairing effect attached regardless of spell type.

[Stompinwin-kromcrush]

and all i was saying is that diseases dont exist like that they impair stats or cause dmg only
