Druid in WoW Forever
Shapeshifter that covers every role. Bear threat jumps to 115%, Feral gets two 31-point talents (Primal Bite and Shifting Power), Balance gains Eclipse, and Restoration gets Wild Growth and Bloom.
Specs
Moonkin Form, Moonfury, Eclipse, Nature's Grace, Vengeance, Improved Starfire, Insect Swarm and Genesis. Eclipse alternates your Wrath and Starfire bonuses and Moonkin aura is 5% spell crit for every caster near you.
Two 31-point talents: Primal Bite for Bears and Shifting Power for Cats. Shred at 200% weapon damage, Ravage at 435%, Lacerate at row 4, 115% Bear threat. One build tanks dungeons and kills things in Cat Form on the way there.
Wild Growth as the 31-point heal with Naturalist shortening it, Bloom, Swiftmend consuming one effect, Nature's Swiftness, Living Spirit, Gift of Nature and Tranquil Spirit. Heals over time can crit now, so Rejuvenation and Regrowth on everyone is the plan.

What's different from Classic
- Omen of Clarity and Nature's Grasp. Both trainable now, not talents, in the Balance tab: Nature's Grasp at 10, Omen of Clarity (a passive now) at 20.
- Revive. New out-of-combat resurrection, 10 sec cast. Rebirth keeps its 30 min cooldown.
- Lacerate. Bear bleed from later expansions. A Feral talent since the launch realms' hotfix of 30 Oct (row 4): the talent teaches rank 1 at 25, trainers rank 2 at 34 and ranks 3 to 5 at 42, 50 and 58. Shredding Attacks cuts its Rage cost. Thanks to a reader.
- Cure Poison. Still here: level 14 from the quest Power over Poison, as in Classic. Since build 70170 High Order Skyborne can take that quest too (Blizzard's notes).
Talent-by-talent: 15 new, 33 changed, 2 moved and 2 unchanged. Spellbook: 7 new spells and 32 with changed ranks or numbers. Full detail on the Druid changes page.
