Where is the boomy survivability?

We’re dying to classes we used to dominate (rogues, mages, warrs, hunter sometimes). I’m sitting in bear form as soon as there’s a 1v1 90% of the time. Can’t do dmg w/o a pocket healer, that’s not fun gameplay. And why is our regrowth so bad? Requires actually casting but healing 1/10 of our health.

1/11 of our health unless we get a crit somewhere. I honestly feel like barkskin isn’t stopping 30% of all damage, and bear form armor isn’t working as it should. If not a defensive, then a means to peel away. Displacer beast anyone??

First step should be to undo the nerfs. Bring back frenzied regen to how it was, bring back moonkin form passives to how it was.

Moonkin honestly need a small passive survival buff as well as a pretty big buff to self sustain. The passive defense should probably be tied to moonkin form so there is still the whole getting caught out of form counter play. The self sustain should honestly be in the form of buffs to regrowth. Owlkin adept could effect regrowth in some way. Bring back the legendary boots from legion. Something.

Oh and the PvP talent that buffs bear form survival needs to be improved. It’s been a very long time since this talent was nerfed due to moonkin being top tier flag carriers. Make it useful again for reducing damage.

Wasn’t the nurf to Celestial Guardian (pvp talent) due to how strong frenzy was? If I remember correct, celestial guardian increased the healing received by 10-15%. This on top of frenzy before it was nurfed in pvp allowed balance druids to get back 3/4 their health. Maybe more. So, with that said, in this current sandbox we have, those nurfs could be reverted without being broken.

A passive damage reduction tied to Moonkin form would be another way to help. Allows us to not have to always sit near form in arenas and pray our healer isn’t CC’d. I would even reduce the armor of Moonkin form to have a passive 10% damage reduction to all attacks and spells.

Didn’t you see that they buffed our rejuv and wild growth?! XD XD XD

So out of touch. Absolutely dead talents that aren’t even worth taken even if you were to buff them 100%. I don’t think the devs pvp on boomy enough to realize where the defensive buffs are needed.

At the very least it’s nice to know they have it as an issue on their radar. But yeah when I saw the 20% buff to rejuv I had to facepalm.
