New Mists of Pandaria Druid Talents

With the new talent calculator being put into use for the Mists of Pandaria, there are some pretty cool changes. 


WoW Druid
First you choose your class specialty and in this case it is whether to be a Balance druid, Feral (cat form), Restoration or the new Guardian (tank). Every 15 levels you get to choose one of three talents for each tier. The tiers are available at levels 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and finally 90.

Level 15 Choices:
Feline Swiftness - This grants you a 15%
movement speed increase.

Displacer Beast - You will automatically be put into cat form and in prowl mode after you are teleported 20 yards forward.

Wild Charge - This grants a specific movement ability for each shapeshift form.  An example would be if you are in Cat form, then you will leap behind and enemy to daze them for up to 3 seconds and another example would be the Guardian form will propel you to the target and immobilizing the for 4 seconds.

Level 30 Choices:
Nature’s Swiftness - Increases the duration of spells by 50%. Spells also become instant, cost free and castable in any form. Nature’s Swiftness will work with Entangling Roots, Cyclone, Hibernate, Regrowth, Healing Touch, Nourish and Rebirth.

Renewal  - Heals the Druid instantly by 30% of max health. This is accessible in any shapeshift form.

Cenarion Ward - A spell that lasts 30 seconds and protects a friendly target. Any damage taken will heal them for 4015 health every 2 seconds for a period of 6 seconds.

Level 45 Choices:
Mists Of Pandaria Guide Faerie Swarm - As this replaces Faerie Fire, it will do just about the same thing. It reduces the targets speed for 15 seconds by 50%.

Mass Entanglement - This dandy little talent will root up to five targets in place for 20 seconds. It will “spread” to the targets until it entangles five. Any damage that is cause to rooted target(s) will interrupt that entanglement effect. This is also useable in any shapeshift form.

Typhoon - This will send a violent force of wind or Typhoon, that blasts all enemies in front of the druid within a 30 yard cone area. It knocks them back and dazes them for 6 seconds.

Level 60 Choices:
Soul of the Forest - This is a blessing granted by Aessina that benefits the caster differently per shapeshift form. Restoration will gain 50% haste for the next spell after casting Swiftmend.  Guardian form will generate 2 additional Rage when you use Mangle. Balance form will benefit with their Solar and Lunar Energy’s meaning when one ends the other gains 20 energy. Feral will grant you 2 Energy per combo point when using finishing moves.

Incarnation - This will activate your current form into something superior for 30 seconds. Each shapeshift form will be different based on what you use. Balance gets the Chosen of Elune form that also gives them bonus when using their Lunar and Solar powers. Guardian becomes the Son of Ursoc which will reduce the cooldowns on many moves to 1.5 seconds. Restoration will become the Tree of Life, and that will increase healing done by 15%, increases your armor by 120% and enhances all spell casting. Finally, the Cat form (feral) will become the King of the Jungle. You will be able to be in prowl mode while in combat and any abilities that require stealth will be usable also.

Force of Nature - This will be usable in any shapeshift form and calls upon three treants to help the druid. Depending on what shapeshift form you choose when using this talent, what the trees do depends on it.

Level 75 Choices:
Disorienting Roar - Calls upon Ursol’s spirit when you roar, and this disorientates all enemies within a 10 yeard radius for 4 seconds.  This is usable in all shapeshift forms.

Ursol’s Vortex - This is usuable in all shapeshift forms and it conjures a vortex of wind that pulls in any enemy within 15 yards. It also lasts 15 seconds.

Mighty Bash - Calls upon the spirit of Ursoc that will stun a target for five seconds. This is usable in all shapeshift forms also.

Level 90 Choices:
Heart of the Wild - Significantly improves your abilities in combat roles for 45 seconds. Each shapeshift form differs. This seems to only work in most cases while in bear form for any increases. For instance, for Restoration Druids, it grants 50% of Intellect and turns that into Agility while also taking 100% of your spirit as Hit rating and expertise, while increasing armor by 90% while in BEAR form, and all damaging spells will cost no mana.  The rest are similar. It seems to me that this only will help a guardian, and is pretty pointless for balance and heals. Even the feral form is weird. It will regenerate 2% of max mana every 5 seconds. What does a feral cat need mana for?  Blizzard screwed up here.

Dream of Cenarius - When you use Starfire, Wrath, Starsurge or any melee abilities, it increases your next healing spell by 30%.

Disentanglement – When shapeshifting while entangled, this will free you while healing you for 20% of max health. This healing effect will only happen once every 30 seconds.

Have Fun!
