Way to go on DruidFollow

I just started a driuid and played around on the WoW website with the talent point charts.. and i don't know what i want to do i haven't spent any points yet so could anyone give me pointers on where to put my points?

http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=0z...sfrocuioE0h thats a feral build im looking at dont go by it im just looking and then i have a balance/resto build http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=MtjruicsruVoZxI dont go off these im still experimenting but they look good

Hectaliza- you really don't need to be giving out advice if you haven't played the job, as you claim.

Reasonable, but far from optimal.
MotW in a Feral build?
No Celestial Focus in a Balance build?

Meh. =/




As for the OP, check the Stickied post for helpful advices to give you a good start. Feral is a good leveling tree. Balance now is too, but maybe not as great. Resto is mostly end-game but you can use it to level up while grouping a lot.

Thanks i think I'm going either:

Moonkin/NS Build (37/0/24)

http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=Mt...sxzZZxxcxcR

or

((Full Feral Build (0/50/11)

http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=zZ...froxuioVx0z

For an ultimate Feral PVP build, consider adding Brutal Impact, Natural Shapeshifter, Nature's Focus, and Nature's Grasp at the expense of Naturalist, Thick Hide, and Feral Aggression. Brutal Impact will give you slightly longer stuns, Nature's Focus will allow you to heal while being beat on, and Nature's Grasp gives you an instant cast Entangling Roots on the go.))

I plan on one of these so please could I get some advice off those two?

Thanks a lot!

You did not link your first two builds properly so we can't see them.

As for the third build, a Balance/Feral build is not advised regardless of what you want in each tree. It's not impossible to play with one, but I'd strongly suggest Feral/Resto or Balance/Resto instead.

would this be a good feral tree?

Short answer: No, not really.

Long answer: There are many flaws like points spent in places that won't be a huge help and talents taken partially that render them useless.

Furor: With that talent it's 5/5 or nothing, period. Otherwise you're gimping yourself as this will be unreliable and will let you down when you most need it.

Imp MotW: 35% increase is very little, and it only shows at the highest ranks of MotW. Drop this and get 5/5 Furor instead.

Feral Aggression: That's 5 points sunk into a talent that will benefit you rather rarely. They could be better spent elsewhere. (IMO)

Thick Hide: I used to think this talent was good to take before BC but now with nicer talents to spend points in, you'll only want this if you intend to Main Tank some end-game instances. Otherwise the bonus from Bear and Dire Bear forms will suffice for 5-man tanking and the like.

Nurturing Instinct: This is only really useful in PvP where you won't be changing gear to heal in a pinch. Otherwise it could be used in the same fashion in an instance, but you won't make use of it often. If you're really healing, you'll have a healing set and thus very little Strength.

Survival of the Fittest: Mostly a tanking talent, but nice to avoid crits in PvP or even in PvE. A good talent overall, but not a priority.

Imp LotP: Will help you last a bit longer and save you a few shift->heal. It'll make you a bit more desirable in groups, too. In a 5-man instance with a decent group, Imp LotP and Vamp Embrace can actually generate enough healing for normal mobs. Only bosses will require some real healing.<

Primal Tenacity: Mostly a PvP talent. Won't make you nearly immune to Stuns and Fears but a resisted Fear will break the Lock's routine and usually give you the upper hand you need to kill him.

Naturalist: If you can, take this. 5/5 is an increase in damage of 10% which is very very good.

Omen of Clarity: Allows you to spam high-cost skills more often freely. It's a godsend for a Feral Druid.



My conclusion: Seems to me that, like so many newbish Druids it seems, you pumped all your points into the Feral tree thinking it's the thing to do since you're speccing that way. But a Druid is much more than that so weight every talent and look in the Resto tree to complement your Feral side.
