A weakauras progress bar displaying mana will show whether you're in form or not. I've been meaning to get around to creating an entire party frame showing mana/rage and skills with weakauras and VideoFX but I keep putting it off because I haven't had much time to play recently and when I can log in I'd rather go kill stuff.



I have a ClickBar set up to switch characters between Cat, Bear and NoForm ATG's as well as hotkeys set up for "bear > all other" and "cat > all other" just for emergencies or for powershifting out of CC. Then all of my DPS rotations, macros and IWT send to their respective ATG groups.

As well as being fast to use, ClickBars are a nice visual reminder of which form each slot is in if you use the proper spell icons.

All right, I setup a click bar to manage ATG's and it is working pretty well. I am still doing stealth runs in BRD to get Ghostshroud and Dark Warder's Pauldrons, but it is actually a good place to practice configuration changes as the tank seems to not take as much damage as in places like Strat.

Out of curiousity do you use Tiger's Fury? +40 cat form damage is huge (equivalent of 280 Str I think) and maybe the 30 energy is worth it if it can buff 2 shreds (along with possible Omen of Clarity procs). Also, do you use Ravage out of stealth to begin pulls? It may be enough to quickly nuke the first mob. I am guessing if the ravage went off at the same time roughly then they should all succeed even if one of them pulls aggro from the tank.

The only time I use tigers fury is if I'm setting up for a gank since you can pre-cast it in stealth right before an energy tick and then one shot someone. Everything I've read says it's a DPS loss in PvE.

I don't usually bother with opening from stealth in PvE outside of specific fights where it can be useful. Bursting down the princess in BRD, for example. It might be more efficient but most of the time I just can't be bothered since I'm only half paying attention whenever I'm grinding dungeons for gear.
