Why does everyone hate on stampeding roar so much? It's great for what it was made for; those 'boss is gonna blow, get out' situations. I use it all the time on my druid for things like getting to the pillars on Nef, spreading out after feud on Chimeron or Theralion's Devouring Flames (and if I ever have to do Mimeron again I'll pop it every explosion I can). Since usually ranged don't need to deal with that kind of mechanic, or already have a head start, so it's really more of a melee buff, and 10 yards is plenty of range for that. If it becomes a raid wide sprint, then they'll either nerf it back to hell or watch as people start stacking druids for fights that with heavy movement like adds on cho'gall or Devouring Flames on Valiona.

Nef's pillars...okay, maybe. The rest are pretty marginal.

Honestly, SR feels like it was designed for Wrath, put on the shelf, then brought out for Cata because they didn't have anything better. It would have been hugely useful in Wrath (Sindragosa, LK, Anub, Mimi, etc.)
