I’m bringing 2 of my friends into retail, they want to play an Arms war and Resto druid. I’ve been playing for awhile so I just want them to choose what they would enjoy the most and I’ll pick a solid 3rd dps for our arena comp. From what I can see either Ret Pally or Ench sham seem like the best option, which would you guys say is better? Or if you have a different idea for a 3rd dps let me know!
Ret/Arms is a much more reliable comp, but bear in mind that Rdruids tend to have a difficult time healing melee cleaves
fdk or dh will also be really good options
play whatever you enjoy most
each of the 4 are extremely strong and have low skill floors
god i wish this was true
game is bad when rdruid is the most versatile healer
I mean ya they can heal TSG pretty well
idk I’m just echoing what all the boys in the high castle tell me
not so many issues with ret war either
dharms and turbo less fun for sure though as they aren’t as naturally tanky
I wouldn’t run enhance with an rdruid - priest or pali is better since enhance is such a squishyboi outside of his heals. Ret/arms should be fine with an rdruid. It’ll struggle against things that require an offense dispell (mages, etc.), but should be fine.
Alternatively, you could run wizards with an rdruid, but if your friend wants to play arms warr then I vote for the ret/arms cleave.
Okay great thanks for the advice guys! I love fdk I played it a lot during bfa I might cap off my old dk to play with them when we get to his level. I’ve heard resto druids aren’t always the best for melee but I them to play what interests them the most and find the best possible 3rd dps to make a comp.
I think I’ll go ret because of the survivability, if we get into a jam I might be able to keep myself alive/offheal. I’m kinda a noob when it comes to arenas but that seems like a good route.
Thanks again to everyone who replied!
