- A druid's mimicry of a rogue's stealth is the sincerest form of battery.[1]
Prowl is a druid's stealth ability. It must be active to enable 
[Ravage].
Improvements
- [Primal Vitality] (Feral honor talent)
Tips and tactics
- When coupled with abilities such as [Ravage], Prowl is a powerful opener to combat.
- Night elves can switch from Prowl to
[Shadowmeld] without being seen "in between". Since patch 4.0.6 they can also switch from [Shadowmeld] to Prowl directly as [Shadowmeld] can be used in Bear Form and Cat Form without shapeshifting into caster form. - It is possible to
[Dash] while Prowling, for a total of 105% standard running speed. - Prowl makes stealth runs possible, but watch out for stealth-detecting mobs!
