Convoke prob the most fun ability they have ever added. Shadowlands Convoke being baseline not having to sacrifice stuff for it was just so nice
I mean you only have to take one talent point to get it, though. It’s not really a big deal.

I take the second talent as well with the astral regen hero talent. Nice burst every 45seconds.

Yea, I usually take the second one that “buffs” the first one
Although, I’m not really a fan of the talents where you need to pick multiple ones just to make it “good”. Heck, with Berserk there is like 4 different talents.
In pvp at least incarn and the node below incarn is basically required and because it shares a spot with it you never take it. Which is why 90% of balance druids use incarn~. In shadowlands we had it both
None of the Shadowlands abilities were baseline; you had to sacrifice three class specific abilities, three general utility abilities, 9 different soulbind tree options, a host of cosmetics, and 3 gameplay side options to take any of the Shadowlands abilities. Sure, if you never cared to move away from Night Fae, maybe Convoke was effectively baseline for you. But my main spec wanted as many as 3 different covenant abilities depending on the context throughout the expansion, and at all points of the expansion I could only have one at a time.
That’s fine if you think Convoke shouldn’t be a choice with Incarn; it’s even fine if you think Convoke should be baseline. But it’s just not accurate to claim it has ever been baseline; for many specs in many situations, Shadowlands was when it cost the most to take.
