In response to a question regarding Mark of the Wild posed on a thread about Power Word: Fortitude, Community Manager Eyonix indicated that it’s possible that the Druid class buff may be re-evaluated in the upcoming Wrath of the Lich King expansion:
We recognize the concerns expressed in regards to Mark of the Wild and it may very well see improvement for Wrath of the Lich King. I do strongly disagree that it’s anywhere as useless as you claim, however.
Also keep in mind, because it affects all stats, some class/specs benefit from it more than others.

Sheez, way to steal our buff thread!
=P
Seriously, MotW and AI need reviews. On that note, so do a few other buffs. I hope they all work out better with the BC->WotLK conversion than they did in the Vanilla->BC one.
I completely agree. And since I don’t think it makes sense to have another all-around percentage-based buff like Blessing of Kings (but would still like to see Mark scale), they should probably just revisit the buff entirely. Maybe give different versions that enhance 2-3 stats by a certain percentage based on your spec…
Right now there are no informations if they still going to change MotW in WotLK, or?
I dislike the static component of it and with the item progression in WotLK it will get more and more useless. Its the only buff in its category (Stat Add Buff) maybe for a reason :/
I like your idea of spec specific versions of MotW which enhance a smaller number of stats by a certain percentage, but sadly it think this does not go along with Blizzards new concept of Buffs/Debuffs and Raid Stacking….
@Tri: Right now, it appears that level 80 Mark of the Wild will provide 37 to all stats (up from 14 at level 70). In addition, Improved Mark of the Wild will only cost 2 Tier 1 talent points to acquire and improves the spell by 40% (up from the current 5-point investment required for a 35% improvement). This means that a talented MotW will provide 52 to all stats. It does appear that the resistances will still not stack with other auras, but all-in-all, these are some considerable improvements!
