Q:
Does Beast mode uses energy like Druid?
This is what curious me the most actually.
Are we able to maintain Beast mode without any type of energy source any time we want?For example, I can merge with Tiger, always have permanent fury active and bonus stat.
Or I can merge with birds to have free access to swiftness without any investment during roaming.Or we have resources required for Beast mode and Beast mode will end after the currency runs dry?
One of my biggest annoyance as roaming ranger in WvW is need to wait for my pet to run close to me to get any form of buff from them, which kills the dynamic required for bursting down target.
Any idea about this?
Its a toggle. You can go in / out every 10 seconds. You can stay on Beastmode forever if you wanted to.
What happens when you are in it though? Is this (link below) it? https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Beastmode

You get bonus stats depending on type of your pet (5 different categories) + you get special F abilities depending on the pet (unique per pet), similar to skills when you command your pet (F1 – attack, F2-special), just in beastmode you use them yourself and there a few of them + they are quite strong (bear gives 8sec of invulnerability for example)

It’s not nearly that potent, I’m afraid, at least according to the Wiki’s information. It’s 3 seconds of immunity to physical attacks; conditions and crowd control can still slam you. You can get another damage-immunity ability by taking a Stout pet (in this case, Black Bear), but it’s 4 seconds of the same thing.

Don’t down-play that…
