Im just curious what provides more damage overall.
Wildstalker going cat or keeper of groove doing balance spells. Both seems viable, even more with 11.0.5 but im curious what are your thoughts.
Kitty wildstalker with convoke for dungeons or if youre trying for a dps parse in raid, the bites crit big and even if you prefer balance spells theres no way to trigger convoke for them now.
Keeper+incarn with wrath spam during downtimes and dot upkeep for okay damage and good mana management while actively healing in raids.
The mana being the biggest part, ive seen a lot of other druids running MS but not using it and being oom while the boss still has 25% health left.
Wild stalker catweaving does far more damage. That being said kotg is a fine alternative for dungeons you aren’t comfortable being in melee on or aren’t familiar enough with damage patterns to make full use of cat form in. Caster dps will contribute but not near what cat will. Curious to see the incoming buff to wrath/starfire and see if they’re a little more comparable. Catweaving has a higher skill ceiling so it should do more dps imo but not everyone likes it and caster dps should at least still feel they’re making a viable contribution.
Sadly even with the buffs, caster form will never even get close to the dps output of Kittyweaving, I’m not saying it should ever be toe to toe with Kittyweaving, but it will never even come close.
Losing Moonkin Form hit caster dps hard, it never even was close before but now is even further behind.
Convoke as cat form is a solid dps option, Convoke in player form is a mixed bag of RNG and a slot machine.
Moonkin Form fixed this issue creating less RNG and more focused for dps, now we have a spell that essentially doesn’t work well either as a caster, it may heal, it may dps, it’s too much rng.
Moonkin Form needs to return.
Tell the folks you’re gonna Convoke and not to take damage so that way Regrowths don’t go out.
I wish it was that easy , but I’m pretty sure even on full hp healing spells are still casted regardless.
Like I said Moonkin Form was used to help further roll the dice RNG to be more favourable towards dps, with it gone it’s seriously a convoluted mess.
It really needs to be overhauled… and cast spells solely on the form you are in.
It’s can be a great healing cd when the rng is for healing but literally I’ve seen people in my party literally just get hit with a Wild Growth on 25% hp…
