Can someone please tell me how long does it take to be "out of combat" to use prowl again?

What do i have to do to be able to prowl during a PvP?

Like stun and run, dont attack?

First @matavellirafa. You must do whatever you can to stop yourself or him/her attacking you. I mean you must be out of combat state and the condition in PvP for that is "don't attack anyone for 5 seconds and vise versa".

Also i would like to point out some cons from Stealth (Rogue almost equivalent skill):
1. Stealth is not broken by fall damage, Prowl IS.
2. Stealth can be made with 5 seconds cooldown (down from 10 seconds), Prowl can not. It will be 10 seconds until Blizzard decides otherwise.
3. Stealth movement reduction can be totally smashed by Rogue's talents, while Prowl movement speed will continue to stay below normal speed. You can reach 91% movement speed in Prowl by using Feral Swiftness, which is 9% below the normal movement speed. The Rogue can improve his stealth movement speed to 105% (if memory serves me well) while stealthed. Doing the math for you (yea i know its simple but some people are lazy), the Rogue is 14% faster than you in Stealth, while you're in Prowl. That is partly negated by the fact that outside Prowl and Stealth, you are faster than the Rogue by 15% in the worse possible scenario (30% in the best possible scenario).

Prowl ability will receive a new unique icon in 4.1. Night Elf Druids will no longer confuse Prowl with Shadowmeld.

Comment by Ogliss

Night Elves can switch from Prowl to Shadowmeld without being seen "in between". However, they cannot switch from Shadowmeld to Prowl without a the global cooldown from Cat Form.

Glad they changed the Prowl CD to start right when you stealth, rather than after coming out of stealth.

Comment by rlindse5

It appears that druids prowl is now better than a rogues stealth.
This is actually incorrect, though it is a very common misconception of the abilities BECAUSE!
Most people look at Stealth and just see Apply Aura: Stealth Value: 40
and then look at Prowl and see Apply Aura: Stealth Value: 50
These are the base values you get at the level you can learn the ability.
You also receive 5 value per level gained after learning the ability.
(which is why it's easier to detect lower level rogues than higher level rogues)
Soooo....

For Rogues!
a level 5 rogue has 40 stealth value
a level 6 rogue has 45 stealth value
a level 10 rogue has 65 stealth value
a level 15 rogue has 90 stealth value
a level 85 rogue has 440 stealth value

For Druids!
a level 15 druid has 75 stealth value
a level 85 druid has 425 stealth value

So before modifiers, a rogue of equal level to a druid will always have a greater than or equal level of stealth

start eating/drinking something than use this ability than you will be prowled and still eating.

I noticed today that if you are poisoned or have a dot on you and you prowl the next tic will de-prowl you.
