Reduces the mana cost of all shapeshifting by X% and increases the duration of Tree of Life Form by Y sec.

Natural Shapeshifter is a talent in the second tier of the DruidRestoration tree. It reduces the mana cost of all shapeshifting abilities by up to 20% and is a prerequisite for the Master Shapeshifter talent.
Despite not granting any bonus to healing, this talent is very common among high level Restoration druids as it is the prerequisite for the Master Shapeshifter talent, which increases healing done in Tree of Life Form. Until level 69 when the Tree of Life talent becomes available, this talent is however of no use to a pure healing build.
The talent is obviously more useful the more you shapeshift. As druids typically shapeshift significantly more in PvP than in PvE, this is a useful talent for PvP.
Patch 1.3.0 (2005-03-07): Talent changed. When leaving a shapeshift form, the next shapeshift form you take will have a 20%/40%/60% mana cost reduction if used within 6 seconds.
