Of course, it's not for players that prefer 1 button characters. I like new druid gameplay.

It would be nice if this buff had a visual effect. Something like big black wings ... so I wouldn't miss them.

There is a visual indication. A shockwave radiates outward from the bear when it triggers. My problem with it is not its visibility but its range. Most of the time I'm out of range and don't get the benefit of the buff. I get maybe every third buff on average.

Yeah all you get is the tiny buff icon at the bottom of the screen to the right of the health globe. It's not something you can look at in combat.
I find I'm mashing the skills I really want to use and when nothing happens, I check for the icon and find it's not there. Painful.
I'm playing SP so I've re-specced to caster druid. I'm finding that a bit surprising as well. The Infected Roots spell has a really small aoe (not sure if it gets bigger with more points, skill desc doesn't mention it), but at least it's insta-cast at the place clicked. The Harvest skill is hard to understand - it seems to make me run to where I click. I'm not sure it actually does anything when I get there - I see a Pagan Rites animation but that's probably... Pagan Rites, since everything is already dead by then.
The new druid is turning out a bit disappointing.

I was hoping bear would fix it with his aura but the uptime is not much and it still uses the SS when you fire another skill, he just stops it expiring (I think?).
Currently lvl 45 with my bow druid. Yes it is a bit clunky. Constantly pressing "Q" (Steady Shot) then switching to either Cascade or Heatseaker is pretty annoying. It's not bad enough to play another class, but it is something to talk about. The bear does absolutely nothing with his aura. I honestly have only seen its aura on me maybe once or twice and I've had it for 21 levels.
I have Steady Shot on let click and Cascade/Heartseeker on right click. I also have Stand Still bound to spacebar so I just spacebar+L Click then immediately right click.
For the bear aura, yeah, it isn't very noticeable at first. However around 79, if I am actually paying attention, I have 7 seconds of spamming. It really, REALLY melts bosses if it pops during the appropriate time.
