patch 2.0.10 notes on the PTR

Actually, what Blizzard said was that Druid DPS was too much while in bear form, and it was. I would hope that they will be given back a large portion of the threat, however, or bear tanking will be relegated to a definitive second class citizen status.

I agree here too and I mentioned it earlier. The damage nerfs look fine. The threat nerfs don't after seeing more of it in action. Putting extra threat back on swipe/maul/mangle/lacerate (some of them all of them could be made to work either way) could potentially help the other spec druids move up the tanking tree a bit adding more value to a hybrid. Paladins and warriors get some of this from the base. You put up righteous fury or go to def stance you get a threat boost no matter what. Paladins/warriors put on the shield to up the defensive stats. Druids get the armor and life. But you'll not that while pallies and warriors get boosts to mit and threat the druid only gets boost to mit from the base stuff. You either need to change the base bear form or change some of the basic skills, like putting extra threat (and it doesn't have to scale it can be static threat so you don't run into the issues that you had with the tank spec druids) on those skills.

So far they haven't done that yet. But yeah I mentioned that as possibly being needed from the get go.
