High latency and druids

I've been playing a rogue with an average of 350ms and I can already tell it's going to bite me in the ass down the path especially in PvP. I was going to roll a warlock seeing as that would play fine with a high latency but the druid is more appealing to me as it's more engaging.
I know casters are better suited for high latency but what about a caster/melee hybrid like the druid? Are there any druids on here that play with high latency?

I recommend you stick with a full caster over a druid. Catform melee range is a pain, even with low latency.

I didn't think cat range would be too much of an issue if I picked up feline swiftness

mashing skills and running around hoping to actually be in melee range.
Cat aint the most fun with lag.

Not to mention the constant shapeshifting required in PvP. Half of the time I don't know if I hit the shapeshift hotkey before the cooldown was up and it "Fizzled" or if it just hasn't registered yet and I end up re-shifting right back into my original form and waste mana. -_-
Spammable shapeshift macros are a must.

Speaking of, anyone have any tips on how to create a spammable macros?
My dream macro would be a shapeshift macro that won't immediately cancel shapeshift, but can cancel it after a second or so.

with high lag we get the best deal because of feline swiftness / pvp set running speed bonus. I never have an issue catching someone during laggy times.
