Druid Cat form changes in 1.7

This'll be a welcome addition to our pretty low DPS, though it does bring back the issue of scaling, as the melee classes get some big boosts to their damage from using better and better weapons. The caster classes too have this same issue, though they have some selection of +spell damage to play around with, but still not quite as nice as a plain weapon upgrade. As for us druids, we're stuck with trying too boost +str, while our feral 'weapon' damage is stuck in one place.

The addition of 1AP for every 1agl would add roughly 100AP to my cat form. I have a feral-oriented set of gear (mix of +AP/crit gear like Devilsaur and all-around +stat items like Songbird, Death's Clutch, Boots of the Shrieker to give me a usable mana pool) which gives me about 528 cat AP... with 104 agl at the moment. I hit roughly 100 DPS in battle using skills, against similar-level mobs, which isn't really a lot.. (and only maybe 50 DPS in bear). An extra 100AP won't add a huge amount, so I guess we'll have to see how much the boosts to the skills damage is.

Going to really like the Tiger's Fury change, though will have to adjust to using it a lot more. Some talent changes would be nice, since at this time, focusing on the other two talent trees beside Restoration is nowhere near as nice as focusing on Restoration.

You can obtain Songbird Blouse solo as a druid, though it'll take some luck (took me about 50-60 dungeon resets spread out over 2 weeks before I got mine). Stealth through the service gate entrance, and head under the big lattice grate on your left, west of the first two packs of mobs. Hearthsinger Forresten has a number of spawn spots though, so he won't be there every time. If he is, you'll see him to the north as soon as you exit the corridor, and you can faerie fire pull him into the corridor and fight him there. Supposedly a 1 in 5 chance of dropping the blouse, took me about 10 kills, picked up a few Piccolos of the Flaming Fire along the way too. :)

Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
