Alright guys, so here is my dilemma… I have been dead set on a warlock since the announcement of classic. However, recently I thought it may be fun to roll a druid since I’ve played one TBC onward. I intend to raid so that I can PvP, I doubt I will rank past 11.
I know druids have their place in WSG/WPvP but what about AB and WSG as a non-FC? I will be playing an insane amount of BGs and the only videos I have been able to find of druids in BGs (non-FC) consist of insanely geared individuals rocking rank 13 gear or having full cloth BiS spellpower gear. Obviously that makes for a great PvP video but I don’t think it showcases how druids realistically play - seeing as getting that gear is unrealistic lol.
I love the druid playstyle, but in a group setting I just don’t see it working without this insane gear. I like the idea of being able to play HOTW and fulfilling all roles for groups.
So for the people out there that have played progressive/non-WSG servers, how viable/much fun is it without BiS gear to play a 19/11/21 or 0/30/21 in BGs?
I mean druids are great at pvp…
They are known for being the best flag carriers…but there is a reason for that…
Druids have the best mobility in the game combined with being one of the most tanky… best duelers on my server in vanilla was a druid and a paladin
I would also say the are the second best pvp healers(Pallys)… because of their mobility and instant HoTs.
Feral is like a rogue that sacrifices some dps and CC for tanky-ness and the ability to heal. They are pretty good.
Boomkins and Balance staller specs are just all around fun to play…Boomkin burst damage is top tier… and the balance staller specs are amazing at duels and WPVP… But yeah, the tricky part is getting the gear…
Resto/Feral gear is easier to come by
I’m definitely not in the crowd of “druids are crap.”
I just don’t have a good idea of like… an average geared person in phase 1/2 ability to compete in BGs.
You know about WSG. In AB, you can ninja flags and basically be a pest, just like Rogues. In AV, you can do whatever you want, as long as you know the strat and tactics. Ninjaing GYs and towers/bunkers are always an option also.
You’ll be fine, don’t worry.
