From Blizzard’s hotfix posts
Druid changes.
Every Druid change Blizzard posts, and how each spec has done in battlegrounds since.
Restoration Druid
- Improved Swiftmend increases Swiftmend healing by 40% (was 30%). Does not affect PvP combat.
- Verdancy healing increased by 60%. Does not affect PvP combat.
- Developer’s note: These changes are intended to help Restoration Druid deal with burst damage in dungeons, as they are behind other healers. They are performing well in raid settings, so we are targeting talents and abilities that are favored when healing a 5-person group.
- Regrowth healing increased by 10%. Does not affect PvP combat.
Feral Druid
- All damage done increased by 5%. Does not affect PvP combat.
Guardian Druid
- Fixed an issue causing Persistence to grant an incorrect amount of armor.
- Fixed an issue causing Rebirth in Bear Form to have an incorrect mana cost.
- Fixed an issue preventing the Bear Form version of Heart of the Wild from being cast.
Restoration Druid
- Fixed an issue where Nature's Bounty could cause Abundance to fall off the Druid early.
Restoration Druid

Change lines are Blizzard’s, linked to the post they come from. Lines marked “PvE only” say they do not affect PvP combat. “Since” is the win rate in recorded Battleground Blitz games from the day after a change to now, compared with the 14 days before it; it needs 100 games. It shows what happened after a change, not that the change caused it, and several changes can overlap.
