Druid "buffs"

Druids are done.

Balance, Feral and Resto all suck.

Crazy to think I played a Druid in both vanilla and classic and absolutely loved it, even being the least played class in the game and considered weak. Yet here we are in SOD, druids getting all kinds of buffs and QOL changes and you dudes are still crying

Youre fine, its really not that bad

Some people enjoy getting their junk stepped on by a girl with heels.

Doesn’t mean it’s objectively fun.

You want your 6 sec instant cast remove 40% of someones hearth bar button back. The easiest pvp class in the game. I get it
 It was fun but also broken.

Are you talking about pve or pvp?

thats dogdoo

honestly balance pvp is still fine. Its the pve nerf that sucks.

Nope. Now what?

You can do over 2600 with an arcane mage.

Starsurge taken in isolation sounds bad, but it was really weird that they jumped on Balance Druids ASAP, but left hunters, shadow priests, rogues, mages etc alone. "We don’t want to do knee jerk changes too quickly
 "

Yet they did, but didn’t realize that Starsurge was broken AND a pve crutch.

So they put our “power” from Starsurge into a lvl 34 spell that is basically lvl 40 shaman lightning bolt
 that requires set up + a crit to be as fast.

That’s why things feel bad in pve. PVP no one seems to interrupt me anyway and mana isn’t really an issue.

They probably need to do something to Moonkin form or Moonfire instead of loading up Starfire.

your scaling on SS vs SF is irrelevant

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaha

That’s odd, Warcraft logs have shown that balance druids have been midpack before these buffs.

Considering most of the classes below them did not receive any buffs, I wonder where that leaves balance now.

No they didn’t. You’re confusing a combination of pre-nerf parses with post nerf parses before SP to ~200 scaling takes place, of which druid is now the lowest. They will be slightly above frost mage.

Yes they did. Sorting by parses from 1 day ago, after the starsurge nerfs, balance is midpack. This is a fact.

So your whining over pvp issues huh? Okay, lets talk


If an arcane mage crits you will die. And this is a long cd compared to 6cd Startsurge. Plus its makes them burn the entire mana bar. Most of the time mages are not dangerous if you keep your health topped up. Something balance druids can do very easily. Paladins also kill you in a HoJ if they get lucky with crits.

Stop just stop
 We cant have decent conversations about class balance if you are embellishing minor nerfs and ignoring the truth. With natures grace and eclipse starfire is WAY better than lightning bolt. So many bad druids here that want easy instant casts and to feel like they are elite Pvpers lol.

Translation: I want easy to cast instant spells that are hard hitting and passive defensives that I dont need to activate. You played yourself here dude.

Ahh but they could just make Lifebloom, Living Seed and Nourish actually good.

Why did you leave out the part about scaling? Is it because you know you’re wrong?

No because you have no idea what you’re talking about when it comes to scaling. You’ve simply made up a narrative when it comes to that.

Please feel free to prove us wrong but in 76 posts, you’ve yet to do so.

Why don’t you go ahead and post the coefficients pre and post-nerf? I’ll wait.

if you think you have it bad. you should try playing a warlock my guy.

Druids are still far superior casters in pvp over warlocks.

No, we’re waiting for your proof of the scaling. We’ve waited for 70+ posts for that. Are you telling me you still have nothing? Is that because you made it up completely?
