* Hibernate is only usable on beasts and dragonkin. This includes [[hunter]] pets and [[shaman]]s and druids in [[shapeshift]] forms.
  +
* Both [[Nature's Grace]] and [[Nature's Swiftness (druid ability)]] reduce the casting time of this spell.
  +
* The listed duration is the maximum, and Hibernate has a chance to break early, especially on higher level targets.

== Tips and tactics ==
  +
* In a [[PvE]] setting, Hibernate gives druids a tremendous advantage as it allows you to take on beasts much more powerful than yourself. A good druid can kill an elite beast mob of his or her own level and even one or two levels higher by alternating Hibernate and [[Starfire]].

* Used in combination with [[Soothe Animal]], [[Entangling Roots]] and, where permitted, [[Flight Form]], Hibernate makes the druid an impressive farming class, allowing you to get to [[herbalism|herbs]] and [[mining]] nodes without having to fight for them.

* Hibernate can be used to help [[crowd control]] in instances where beasts or dragonkin are present.
  +
* Like most crowd control, Hibernate doubles in function as a spamable counterspell: Even though the target will not remain asleep while players are beating on it, any of its abilities in progress (with a cast time) will be interrupted.
  +
* In [[PvP]], It is good to use against a [[Hunter]]'s [[pet]], a [[Druid]] in Feral forms, and a [[Shaman]] in [[Ghost Wolf]] form. However, due to its cast time, a good player can often shift out of form before the spell is done casting to prevent it from being used on them.

Notes

Hibernate TCG

In the World of Warcraft: Trading Card Game.

Tips and tactics

  • In a PvE setting, Hibernate gives druids a tremendous advantage as it allows you to take on beasts much more powerful than yourself. A good druid can kill an elite beast mob of his or her own level and even one or two levels higher by alternating Hibernate and Spell arcane starfire [Starfire].
  • Used in combination with Ability hunter beastsoothe [Soothe Animal], Spell nature stranglevines [Entangling Roots] and, where permitted, Ability druid flightform [Flight Form], Hibernate makes the druid an impressive farming class, allowing you to get to herbs and mining nodes without having to fight for them.
  • Hibernate can be used to help crowd control in instances where beasts or dragonkin are present.
  • Like most crowd control, Hibernate doubles in function as a spamable counterspell: Even though the target will not remain asleep while players are beating on it, any of its abilities in progress (with a cast time) will be interrupted.
  • In PvP, It is good to use against a Hunter's pet, a Druid in Feral forms, and a Shaman in Spell nature spiritwolf [Ghost Wolf] form. However, due to its cast time, a good player can often shift out of form before the spell is done casting to prevent it from being used on them.

Patch changes

  • Cataclysm Patch 4.0.6 (2011-02-08): Now has a PvP duration of 8 seconds.
  • WoW Icon update Patch 1.2.0 (2004-12-18): Players now have an increasing chance to break free of the effect, such that it is unlikely the effect will last more than 15 seconds.
