The talents have been up on the Alpha for over a week, so I suspected they would be released.
However, when I clicked on those links the page was there but it was blank.
Edit: Just refreshed, it works now.
The EU WoW site usually had these first, what happened?

Reflection being a prerequisite for Nature's Swiftness makes me a happy boy.
Nurturing Instinct is making me second guess my heavy restoration spec. That talent alone makes me think that they are going to be focusing on letting us actually use our forms. I would really enjoy being able to spam shreds only to shift out every little while to let a nice Rejuv and Regrowth go off.
Regardless, I think I'll be speccing into heavy Feral until I hit 70 where I may switch into a 0/30/31 build. I like the talents. Dreamstate is sexy for Balance Druids.
Edit: Hell yes! Flying Form!
here is some awareness. If you dont like it then dont read it. It doesnt effecct you so why care,...right? RIGHT?

damnit I was hoping for the hunter talents next ><
One thing I'm wondering about Flight Form is if it is usable during combat. Either way it seems like flying is going to be a very easy way to escape in world PvP.
Improved Leader of the Pack
Requires 30 Feral
Requires Leader of the Pack
Everyone affected by the leader of the pack aura will also heal themselves for 2% of their total hp upon a critical strike 33/66/100% of the time. This effect can only occur once every 6 seconds.

Improved leader of the pack seems really weak to me personally.
If you have physical dps classes with 6000 health in your group, they gain 120 health every 6 seconds at best. Either the % healed needs to go up, or the "only once every 6 seconds" restriction needs to be removed.
That's still 1200 health a minute, and maybe put with a paladin's judgement of light might mean that this melee group might not need much healing at all.
Mangle basically replaces shred, saving two talent points from improved shred (though that talent reduces lacerate's rage cost now too), but not enough points to pick up nurturing instinct
God damn it's easy to sink lots of points into restoration. I didn't even get sublety. Also of note is that improved tranquility makes it threatless which might be useful somehow
I feel bad for feral druids that want to go 41 deep in feral. I can't think of a good talent setup that doesn't take at least 49 for cat and 52 for bear. And doing that, they have to give up either OoC or furor/imp enrage.
The tree's almost too good everywhere deep in the tree. Same problem enhancement shamans face (nearly every single T6-8 talent being a must other than Mental Quickness).
At first glance, I thought imp LotP was good, but it sucks just like the Hunter's Spirit Link talent does. 2% HP every 6 seconds (at most, depends on random numbers) is weak, but at least it is a group buff, but needs more ability.
Also, this talent confirmation means those guys at Curse forums were leaking the accurate info.
It seems you could cast Flight form in combat, since you can do all other forms while in combat. Maybe that is why it is only 60% movement speed and doesn't get the PvP set bonus added to it.

imp tranquility has been like that for a long time.
it seems to me that a manaless 5000+ heal every minute is quite nice. JoL and this means a ton of healing for melee classes.

Please copy/paste because big brother does not want me to see these druid changes

Unless the ability acts like a shift with a casting delay the bolded parts confuse me.
