Dumbest nerf ever. That bonus only really shined in 2's. Blizz had stated many times classes are not balanced around the 2's bracket. The worst thing about this nerf, is I use healing touch never, unless its NS+HT. I don't even have the talents that lower its cast time. Such a sad day.
You get worse and worse everyday, but today you're acting like tomorrow.

I never get pissed about this game, but this is a total nerf to druids.......if they go through with this i think i will straight up quit playing this toon....

I agree. This change is retarded. What druid uses healing touch without the natures swiftness attached to it in pvp? Taking off speed from the pvp set for the first time, and replacing it with worthless crap is ridiculous. at least lower the cooldown of swiftmend or added chance for your spells not to get dispelled.

I think this change is actually a pretty decent idea. I'm not going to judge it before I try it. But if Blizzard wants healing touch to be more useful in arena, they're going to have to reduce it's cast time by more than just 0.25 seconds.

While I think that the new set bonus is pretty pointless, some kind of more healing related change to the set bonus would be fine.
Please fix the set bonus so as to be usable, but not imbalancing. Good luck finding what that thing would be though. I haven't seen a decent suggestion yet that would quell the tide of falling tears over this change or the current state of near uncatchable resto druids.

I realize druids have alot of things that other classes dont have, that works both ways though.
I do think this was the dumbest change possible, my HT hasn't been touched since I shift clicked it in my spellbook for my NS macro. If the speed is to uber leet, change the bonus to an ability we actually use please.

Thanks for the feedback. The Restoration 4-piece Gladiator set bonus has been changed in the next PTR build. It is now the old Stormrage set-bonus, which is -.2 seconds off Regrowth. In addition, the speed bonus to Cheetah will remain on the Feral 4-piece Gladiator set bonus.
