I very much dislike the resto Druid playstyle in particular of how absurd the feral affinity is, and in my opinion it promotes a mongoloid mindset to most other Druids.Not sure about y’all, but I play resto Druid as well and I absolutely hate almost everything about it.I just hope that they would rather do something about that affinity.
Don’t get me wrong many spec playstyles of the past few expansions have been horrid, but resto as Druid leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Weaving in feral seems less Mongolian than hurrdurr bear forming till deep damp.

I actually agree with doggo.

It’s actually a great play style. Only issues is when their healing is over tuned and they don’t get punished for running it. Also niche situations like MLD where the Druid can just restealth without a care in the world

the stun raises rdr skill cap by a ton but the actual cat form damage is what makes it disgusting
also if i get invalid target one more fkn time while frost shocking a druid before they go stealth…
I think that is one of the best talent rows in the game: clear choices that fit right into the class fantasy of a shape shifting Druid giving abilities in other forms
Rdruid dmg being impactful while taking the risks to push in for cc/kills makes it so fun
I tinkered with rdruid a bit last szn and I wasn’t really good but I loved that aspect of it. Helping to secure kills and not just healbotting at the pillar was a play style I enjoyed a bunch

It makes druid actually feel like a hybrid class. I think it’s a good thing. It’s only mongoloid if HoTs are doing too much healing, which the mastery nerf helped with a little bit.
It’s why I enjoy x3 Indomitable Justice on my Hpal so I can push in with wings and help my partners out sometimes once I’ve caught up with healing.
I get this exact same problem as Discipline whenever I try to grip someone. What’s it about?

Yep this is the problem. There is no trade off for going cat form currently
theres is a lot of druids who don’t even bother to try to clone, just run back and forth to a pillar for restealths because they don’t have to heal their destro lock while you die in a rake stun to .9 second bolts and gpys
being able to drink while in stealth is easily the dumbest thing in BFA next to DH mana burn circle garbage
rdruid rake stuns wouldn’t be so bad if you could actually leave a pillar vs destro locks which still haven’t received nerfs
bonkers game

Drinking during stealth should absolutely not be a thing
How do you drink in stealth as rdruid?
It tells me I need to be standing to stealth and if I start drinking after stealth, it breaks stealth.
I can stealth while eating as feral but not resto, is it just a timing thing?
if you drink while in cat form and then press stealth, you will remain stealthed in cat form drinking.
Remove drinking from arena balance healers mana usage from there wow easy fix. Nothing as aids as playing against MLx and not being able to stop the drinks because bermuda triangle.
Also prune mana burn from DH.

If their healing wasn’t so absurd while they ran around like a cat all game I’d actually really like it. A trade off of healing/survivability for damage.
Most likely the mechagon cyclotronic blast trinket making them immune. It works like a neural silencer. I always got annoyed by that on my holy priest.
