when other classes tell me to not shapeshift since its cheating i usually tell them to take away one of their major spells like pets for hunters or healing for priests and they think im crazy. they say "well what crap is that? how can i beat you in a duel without my pet or healing?" its the same thing with druids:shapeshifting is a major spell and is hard to kill something without it. before BC came out warlocks were making fun of me because they get their ground mount free. well HAHA because now i get flying mount free. :P
