Here are the latest Druid notes from the Public Test Realm:

Druids

• When the duration of "Cyclone" ends, area buffs such as "Leader of the Pack", "Tree of Life", and "Moonkin" will now be correctly resumed.
  
• "Bear Form" now grants 25% increased stamina instead of 25% increased health.
  
• "Dire Bear Form" now grants 25% increased stamina instead of 25% increased health. In addition, the armor bonus has been reduced from 450% to 400%.
  
• The multiplier on base weapon damage for "Mangle (Bear)" ability has been changed from 130% to 100%. In addition, the bonus damage has been reduced by the same ratio.
  
• "Savage Fury" no longer affects "Mangle (Bear)".
  
• "Savage Fury" no longer applies to "Maul" or "Swipe".
  
• The critical damage bonus on "Predatory Instincts" reduced from 3/6/9/12/15% to 2/4/6/8/10%.
  
• "Improved Leader of the Pack" can no longer get critical heals.
  
• The armor bonus from "Moonkin Form" has been increased from 360% to 400% (to match Dire Bear Form).

Ha she actually removed it. Cute.

Yes, I did. Apparently I misread the date on it and blame multi-tasking.

I don't have additional answers for you at this point in time, but should we (the community team) get more to add in, we will. Please remember that we do all work as a team and any one of us could show up to edit in information.
