Just added to the front page:

Druid Threat: There is a nice, little perk to being a cat...your threat modifier is .81 instead of a full 1.00.

For Dire Bears, we get at 30% modifier that can be granted another 15% (for a total of 45%) with 3/3 Feral Instinct.

Formulas - remember, threat is only generated while in combat*:

When damage is dealt (i.e. mangle/lacerate):
threat = damage * threat mod of skill * druid threat mod

When no damage is dealt (i.e. faerie fire):
threat = skill threat * druid threat mod

When gaining rage (i.e. Enrage) each enemies receives:
threat = (rage gained * 5) / # of enemies

For skill threat at a glance:

Faerie Fire 127 initial threat
Mangle dmg * 1.3 initial threat
Lacerate 285+(dmg*0.2) initial threat
Lacerate dmg*0.2 threat over time
Maul dmg + 322 initial threat
Bash 260 initial threat
Demoralizing Roar 42 initial threat
Feral Charge 150 initial threat
Swipe dmg *1 initial threat
Enrage 50 initial threat assuming 3/3 Intensity
Enrage 10/s threat over time
Dire Bear Form 50 initial threat assuming 5/5 Furor
Frenzied Regeneration 125/s threat over time

*Note: While it might seem like "well no shit"...this is in reference to those who cast rejuvenation or regrowth on themselves prior to pulling "to build threat". The ticks of rejuvenation and/or regrowth that happen prior to the pull will not contribute to threat generation. Only those ticks that occur after the mob is engaged will contribute to threat generation.

For those who are curious, the aggro from LB, tranquility, rejuvenation and Regrowth are listed below.

Regrowth: 607-677 initial threat and 30/s threat over time
Rejuvenation: 44/s threat over time
Lifebloom: 300 threat on bloom and 5*stacksize/s threat over time
Tranquility: 759*party members/s threat over time

Cats pay attention if you pop out to help out the healers by topping yourself or your party off...your cat threat mitigator isn't in effect when you go caster so the full force of this goes toward your threat.
