There are quite a few mechanisms that would be easy to implement. For example:

My assumption was the opposite: (with made up numbers)
-Start at +0% bonus

-Cast Wrath 10 times
-Your next 10 Starfires will...

You can't fill all slots with Conquest badge gear. You need drops to fill the other slots, and for some classes Conquest gear is a far cry from BiS gear. If you are intendeding to do the Hard-Mode...

On paper, most of the Regrowth healing comes from the HoT part. But you don't cast RG strictly for the HoT, that's generally just bonus healing. You cast it when:

While the slow-stacking strategy might be the way to gain back your mana efficiency on paper, in a real game setting it's not very useful.

You get 50% mana back when it blooms as well.

The buff is: Druid stacks LBx3. Druid gets stunned/has to move OOR/has to cast direct heals and can't renew LB. The bloom goes off. Now it will...

My guess is that it would be the full value (effective + ineffective) to actually make living seed worth 3 points. It's getting an inherrant nerf since you'll no longer get it on 80%+ of Regrowths,...

I imagine the new order for tank healing will be:

LBx3/RJ > Regrowth for the first 'dip' the tank takes > Nourish for subsequent 'dips.'

I don't think it's optimal to waste all the mana of a WG...

If that's the logic, why not maximize the function? Either way, less overall mana means you have to pay attention to efficiency. In both cases, the 'what' is going to be more stringent.

I'm extremely surprised and disappointed this is the route they went. I agree that mana regen is out of control, but this is a sad reaction.

Possibily transfering the hit penalty to crit penalty, as crit is not a 'reach-cap-and-move-on' stat. It would also nerf rage gen a bit, making the huge increase in white damage be somewhat offset...

This is one thing that kind of bums me out about WotLK. In an effort to try to 'force' druids to do some direct casting, they gave us a bunch of spells that effectively do the same thing. If we get...

That was a pally's healing niche because that was the only tool they had, so it HAD to be their niche. With all the other spells, talents, and new judgement/hand system, they have a...
