Attn Druids: Innervate still exists

Community General Discussion

Try using it in raids, some time, esp when you see a fellow healer is OOM.

2

Most druids don’t really run it anymore

Which is a shame

I saw an enemy Druid casting it today in Alterac Valley and instantly interrupted it.

Then I was sad, because it was the first time I saw that spell in years.

Dude, how can you interrupt an instant?

My innervate’s always go super unappreciated so I just use them strictly for myself out of sheer pettiness at this point.

Lmao I was thinking Tranquility, not Innervate.

:cooking:

D’oh, you can tell I don’t play Druid.

Innervate is the mana one, right? I play Resto Shaman and they have something very similar.

i believe its a talent at the very bottom of the left tree now. most druids probably dont even take it

edit to say. just looked at icy veins all specs/all builds and if people are copying that then only like 1/2 the builds even take it

Yeah it’s the mana one. XD I use tranquility all the time.

I don’t run innervate on my Druid anymore because some of the resto talents + wildstalker hero talents offer decent mana return. although I mostly do keys, so there’s no one besides myself to use it on + a lil cat weaving during easier pulls keeps my mana full-ish.

for raids I definitely could see innervate being super helpful for monks and priests. or holy paladin (not biased) to let them fire off free 500k holy lights on people.

basically is what I was thinking of. Yesterday a lot of the healers were going OOM and we had a ton of druids in the raid.

actually now that I think about it more, if a Druid threw me an innervate and announced it in VC beforehand, I would love that for some of these raid encounters. we could blow through all of those nasty heal absorbs in a few FREE globals with those meaty, usually very mana-intensive, holy light casts. neat

I recently retalented it between pulls on chimaerus because heals went oom.

Most guides dont talent it.

I remember being invited into ICC a few times on my severely undergeared druid solely for the regen heal, tranquility and innervate. The innervate being the “most important spell a druid could have” as was explained to me. LOL

I’ll appreciate them. It will give me mana to do my magic tricks.

I remember back during trial of the crusader raid NOT being invited on my shaman because I wasn’t a Druid and didn’t have a battle res. druids truly have it all…

This, I don’t take the talent unless asked to which is never.

Direct conversation still exists. Try using it sometime when you have the balls to say what you mean to who you mean it for.

I bet if they changed it from a single target “mana” saving ability to a group-wide “class power” saving ability it’d get taken/used.

Timing it in groups could be interesting, I’d give up MotW for it.

Treat it like Lay on Hands, have a type of forebearance for innervate, group thing, stick a slightly longer cooldown.

That could work and be balanced.

If its a pug its mine, if im running it at all. Cant trust randoms to even notice its there to take advantage of it.
Getting the whisper 6 minutes into a fight when ive already used it twice and its on cooldown is always funny.
