For convenience, I've clipped out the parts pertinent for your situation.

Druid - From Beta Patch Notes

The loss of Symbiosis primarily impacted Druid survivability, as many of the abilities received through Symbiosis were defensive cooldowns. To compensate for that, we improved Barkskin (for non-Feral Druids) and Survival Instincts (for Feral and Guardian Druids).

Barkskin is now available to Balance,Wow Gold Guardian, and Restoration Druids, and no longer provides pushback protection, but its base cooldown has been reduced to 30 seconds.
Survival Instincts no longer requires or forces the Druid into Cat or Bear Form, and now reduces damage taken by 70% (up from 50%) with a 2-minute cooldown (down from 3 minutes), and can have up to 2 charges (up from 1 charge). Survival Instincts is now available only to Feral and Guardian Druids.
