Yeah I found the same when I tried out bear I think constant duration would work, or even allow for a talent to increase the duration further. Assuming they feel that making it a modal is too op, that would allow people build into a more spiritshifting specialized druid at the cost of spending a few talents.

That, unforunately, seems to be the case The real tragedy is several specs and animal forms are rather useless in the current state. Bear form + high con, for example, is great for use as a non standard party tank, but as soon as your 12 seconds are up prepare to get crushed. Who knows, maybe they'll notice how weak it is in the coming months and decide to change it back to having no duration.

Interesting... Did they give any information on base duration, or if int increases the duration? I think it's increased by intellect... but really not sure. Right on. Did some testing and yeah, it definitely does look like it's increased by int. I agree with you though, Varg; even at max int, it still seems a bit too short

I am somewhat unclear as to whether or not this should be happening... After maintaining spiritshift form for somewhere between the 5-10 seconds, the effect just ends. The combat logs show that the ability was deactivated as well. None of the tooltips display a duration to the shift effect, which implies it lasts until the end of combat. Is this supposed to be happening?
