Save me from loading PTR on my tiny SSD!

[:1]...How is bear AOE threat now? The PTR is "finalized" as far as I've heard, so how is it?

When I heard that these changes were coming I was actually quite disappointed, I felt that druid AOE threat was actually acceptable as it was.

So is it an improvement? Or should I hastily level my death knight and tank on him?
It's a pretty significant boost. First, you get 1 more swipe every 6 seconds which is pretty nice. Also many if not most of our skills that had a threat modifier instead now do damage to balance out the loss of the threat modifier. BUT the threat modifier gave the same threat no matter what. Now that it is damage we will do additional threat on create plus about 900 more dps depending on gear level.
Ahh interesting. I hadn't considered the fact that basing the attacks on damage would scale and improve with gear.
yep, it's totally a boost maybe more than we needed. I don't know. I never add tank on bosses. Actually i never tank anymore in raids but yeah. This will be very nice.
Yeah I'm mostly concerned about my performance in heroics. My RL has been smart enough to use our warrior MT for add tanking in raids.

He did say that I would be on deck for add tanking if my toon would be up for it post patch though. =X
You will be.
