This spell defines one of the purposes of a mage in instances - crowd control.
When in an instance, facing multiple mobs, always try to sheep one. Tell your party which one you're going to polymorph, so they don't attack and break it - either use a /say macro, or, if you're leader, put a raid icon on the mob.

Be smart when using this spell:
a) Keep the regeneration in mind. Don't cast it on something which is about to die - it restores their hp and other stats very quickly, so this is just giving it a potion and making you and perhaps your party's life harder.
b) Don't cast on a mob which someone is attacking, unless it is vital for you to sheep it, in which case tell the person to stop slashing away first; otherwise, it's a waste of mana.
c) Don't run around AEing, or Blizzard, or any other AoE spell afterwards - this just breaks the sheep.
d) Don't sheep after a DoT has been put on the targetted mob, as the damage will break the effect.

Do this well, and your party will love you. You will also have one less beast/humanoid to kill when facing multiple ones!

Certain classes have PvP trinkets which can break Polymorph. Engineers can also create un-polymorph trinkets, and priests can dispel magic.

I personally think that this is one of the best things blizzard could have done... no more going into a BG and having a mage sheep you then just sit back and keep sheeping you until back up comes or the mage is fully rested up and can take you down ... 30sec sheeps were just far to much for BG's.

Thank you Blizzard,
Swed

This spell is a very good one and with the add-on u can get from Curse-Gaming MCpoly 0.4, you make your hot key. While in a group, when a group member gets mind control you hit the hot key and that person gets polyed which has saved my group a few hundred times, it saves you from having to target the party member thats MCed. All you do is hit the hotkey :)

normally you get dismounted but when i went to the ghostlands a lvl 17 mage dueled me and spammed polymorph on me and i didnt dismount =P

at lvl 60 u get polymorph pig ( piggy piggy piggy!) and polymorph turtle. it transforms 2 wat ever it says ( player-pig for pig 1 and player-turtle for the other). it does wander around more :-/ or :( cuz then it gets more health. like the first guy said dont use it when the mob is just about 2 die then its just a waste of mana!

This is my favorite polymorph macro, and I made it myself.

Left-click focuses on your target and casts polymorph (top rank you have).
Right-click polymorphs your focus.

#showtooltip
/focus
/cast Polymorph
/cast Polymorph

Mages aren't going to have a monopoly on the "transforming CC" after WotLK.
Shamans are getting a "Hex" that works just like Polymorph: It turns a Beast or Humanoid into a random critter. It doesn't work on critters like Polymorph does, though (doesn't make any sense, a critter won't attack you anyway...)

You can use this as much as you want in PvE, as it outlasts the 15 second rule.

One of the major reasons I love druids. If in any form, you can't cast this. If the target is in druid form and you poly them, then can shapeshift.

Commentaire de Norrinir

With the changes to spell costs in patch 3.0 (every spell costs percentage of base mana with lower ranks costing more), first rank of Polymorph is no longer useful for PvP, the last rank is cheaper.

Commentaire de Dr00dboy

Hex is on the same diminishing return as polymorph is.

Commentaire de 217794

It seems like Druids can no longer shift out of polymorph (or hex for that matter) if afflicted by it in caster form.

Commentaire de 255077

Any idea of how much "will regenerate very quickly" is? i mean it is a % of the base HP, is it a multiplier of normal regen or a static value?

The "at war" feature with factions and this spell can create an awesome absurdity. You can sheep a vendor, uncheck "at war"(because CCs no longer start combat) then buy from the vendor. Unlike freezing trap though the vendor no longer says it's clicked on lines, no sheeped orcs saying "Lok'tar".

If a polymorphed target has a shiled, or something that absorbs damage, and i attack them but the spell is absorbed, the effect breaks? or only when it causes damage?

Commentaire de 979501

Woot! Go mages!

Commentaire de Thottbot

Great for when you pull one too many enemies. Providing this spell lands, of course (which enemies are more likely to resist at earlier levels), then it has a multitude of uses. Like saving your hide.

Commentaire de Thottbot

too bad u can't cast this on a friendly!
u could heal a non-tank really fast :)

Commentaire de Thottbot

The polymorphing abilty is not unfair, it's another way for a mage defend. Rogues have no prob. with mage, warriors just charge. Otherwise, if you don't interrupt their cast; you deserve to be polyed, then (if they have no chance) blinked!

Commentaire de Thottbot

anyone actually know how much more regen there is?

Commentaire de Thottbot

all i know that its really really fast...

Commentaire de Thottbot

Where exactly can you learn this? I learned everything from the trainer in Northshire Abby. Where is there another trainer? I found a bunch for every other class but a mage in Goldshire. Anyone?

Commentaire de Thottbot

go to the 2nd floor inn the loins pride in walk strait from the stairs

Commentaire de Thottbot

if you spammed this on a guy underwater would he die of not breathing?

Commentaire de Thottbot

Whats the point of getting this all it does is change from sheep to pig. why would you wast like 20 minutes just to get something that changes its looks.

Commentaire de Thottbot

The first time I saw polymorph, I threw myself off of my roof because I thought it was so maniacally stupid. Turn person into sheep? What the heck?.

A little while later I bought it to make a statement that i was stupid as well as all other mages and i found out what level stupid had been brought to by Polymorph. i FREAKIN LOVE IT! the only defect is the regen thing. Not cool. "Go make a dumb thing even dumber." Blizzard thought to themselves. They obviously thought of regen on polymorph while they were eatin Lambchops and wanted more lambchops really really bad. But don't get me wrong... Polymorph is still really usefull.

Commentaire de Thottbot

What do you get by leveling up Polymorph? is there a less chance of resist? seems like a waste of gold to me...

Commentaire de Thottbot

I notice a lot of folks doing that- icing, then sheeping.... isn't that a bit... i don't know... stupid? doesn't it just waste a good frost nova?

I usually sheep, then frostbolt, then fireball/fire blast. by that time, they're about 10 yards away, so THEN I nova. then they're stuck again, ready for me to back up, frostbolt again, fireball again, ya know lather, rinse repeat. Then I run and arcan missle, slowing them more with frost armor until frost nova is back. If they survive that, they are eather many levels above, immune, lucky or twinks.

Commentaire de Thottbot

What happens if you cast this on someone who is mounted? Will he unmount and turn into sheep? Will it not affect him? Will he be turned into a sheep and after duration be mounted again? Will it affect the mount and have him start riding a sheep (lol)? Please answer.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Hey miketar its baycoolahunt. Hows it goin man?

Commentaire de Thottbot

is there a way to delete my earlier posts? if someone knows please share with me.

Commentaire de Thottbot

after reading the posts above about the battle between ice and fire spec mages ive come to a conclusion. both specs own just as good as the others. just depends how well u play the mage, armor, weps, ect. lets say im ice speced. and im against fire spec. all id is once i see the fire spec about to poly i put on my fire shield. And when i get polymorphed i dont take and damage. same for the fire spec. each and every class in this game owns. ya just have to know how to play em.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Flying high and see someone in the air with a flying mount? Fly up to them, dismount, presence of mind polymorph them, and watch the poor sheep plummet while you slow fall :).

Commentaire de Thottbot

Best thing to do to a noob when raiding:
1 Freeze them with Frost Nova.
2 Say /lol and step away.
3 Polymorph 'em and /taunt.

I have found that doing this encourages the noob to speak on Local Defense setting me up for some great PVP!

Commentaire de Thottbot

if you are a horde theres probly nothing better than polymorphing hogger on a bunch of level 10 guys and watch them wipe from hoggers health increase LOL

Commentaire de Thottbot

this spell is pretty useful for crowd control in dungeons. its even useful in duels, use it in the beginning, they r not going to regenerate anymore health, and just frostbolt or pyroblast, think of it as a free shot =)

Commentaire de Thottbot

sheeping people is fun espaly peopel u dont like if u coude some how reach into outher people caters and make them pvp or hoteile twords u for just a sec well there whoude a new list in gilds the blacke list and the sheeper list and its the best for croude control espaly on outher mangees or warloks how are far away so u can kill there pet while they are sheept and then finch them off :)

Commentaire de Thottbot

dude above me, Learn to spell

Commentaire de Thottbot

Good opener tho lol. Fun in PvP

Commentaire de Thottbot

lol this is kinda random, it will make u all pvpers a litter happier here it is

say a bloodelf hangin round goldshire and they not flagged. flag and duel them. if the accept, wait for them to attack you, then type /forfeit real fast
if ur lucky they will attack wen u are not dueling and they flag! then all the ppl who are watching the show swoop in and @BAM@. lol done this many times, never gets old watchin the noob run...ah good times...good times

Commentaire de Thottbot

You get about 10% of total health evry second while polymorphed

Commentaire de Thottbot

This is good for PvP when they have the flag. (non druid)

Commentaire de Thottbot

I hate when you see a video where a mage tries to sheep a druid! Noobs!

Commentaire de Thottbot

you are killing a healer and they start to use their 3 second heal, use this and immediately fireblast itll interupt the heal and no regen

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Why would anyone want to Polymorph a critter?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

It would be SO cool if you could shear some wool off the sheep and use it to make armor or something.

for fun ;)
