Troll+Druid=???

So, I've been thinking of maybe becoming a troll. Do they have good animations, looks, forms, etc? Also do they actually look good in druid gear? Just thinking about it and any of info would be greatly appreciated :)

I like my Troll's animations a lot more than the Tauren's. Plus, you don't look ridiculous on mounts. FemTrolls and FemNelves look pretty much the same in the gear so you would get used to a Troll quickly.

And the best part... You can fit through all doorways as a Troll! Not that you had that problem as a Nelf but I can tell you it was very annoying having to dismount to get off the elevator in UC.
dont do it!

i would never give up my warstomp for da VOODOO SHUFFLE!

Berserk + lifeblood + natures grace + some decent gear = a 1.2 second cast starfire.


Trolls are cute, too. I think they look good in the current balance t10.
i transferred to troll, love my cat form. however the bear form somehow looks like boar form to me
Race changed as soon as my server came up, loving my troll forms (except flight form which is still a bird)

I guess its down to the fact that my first ever character was Tauren in 2004 and i have gotten a little tired of not getting through doors and looking a bit goofy on some mounts lol.

Had some nice comments when i logged in outside of Org and the obligatory "You look stupid" one's too hehe but hey i like it so that is all that matters. Love the casting animations, i always have as i have a Troll Shammy also.

As for racials i just like the troll ones better, warstomp is nice but i hardly used it to be honest and i have been using Berserk a lot so far.
Yeah I'm doing the race change now looking forward to having two berserks

So, I've been thinking of maybe becoming a troll.

By posting on these forums, you are automatically becoming a troll.
So trolling as a troll makes you and I a legitimate, genuine troll.

Which drains down to the fact that you are a systemic anomaly inherent to the programming of
the Paid Race Change service although the transport process has altered your consciousness you irrevocably remain trollo-sapiens

Following that logic, if you are not a troll and trolling, you are discrediting yourself.
Ergo! Concordantly! vis-a-vie!: go pay the $25! and enjoy the prestige!
yes. trolls are the best race in the game.
Why would anyone want to be a hideous technicolor clown?

Thanks for all the posts! I'm most likely going to become one of the sen'jin troll druids :)
My two cents:

Trolls were always my favorite race. My Shaman Main is a Troll, the first character I made for the game was a Troll, I'm biased. The new starting area makes it all the better.

The Bear/Cat forms rock about equally to the others, though all races are pretty cool in their own way.

Moonkin is just a Pallette-swap of Nelf (as is Worgen), so it depends how you feel about that.

Swift Flight Form is a freakin' sweet bat.

So, that's why I made another Troll and another Druid yesterday, though while this toon is Balance I might spec the troll Feral. If any of this appeals to you, don't wait another second.
Kelilia,

I found myself transferring servers and factions just the other day to a troll druid to join my friend on Jaedenar. I too was a Night Elf, starting probably four years ago absolutely loving the race and forms...They were just amazing to me!

To be honest though I really didn't think Blizzard could outdo the Night Elves with Troll druids. Oh man was I wrong. There is not one thing I dislike about my druid now. I really think you'd enjoy the change - even if you just wanted a change of looks (though waiting for Worgen might be better for you, since there's no faction change involved). Plus, things are only projected to get better with the "bat" form! :D

If you do change, enjoy it my friend. I highly doubt you'll be disappointed.
@Wtfbbqsauce

Haha thanks! Glad knowing that there is a better race for a druid then night elf :)

Fairly new Resto Druid - NEED Advice please!

Howdy Druid Forums,

I recently decided to become a Resto Druid. With the help of some friends and after a long heroic grind, I've attained somewhat decent gear. I just am still unsure as to how exactly I should be gemming. I hear hitting the 2005 haste cap is extremely important and I'm pretty far from it.

I've been reforging mastery and gemming pretty much int. With my gear is that still a good idea or should I completely go to Haste?

Lastly, any problems with my talent tree/glyphs?

I appreciate all the help!

Personally, I'd drop 1 from Furor and put it into Moonglow.

Here is how I have mine done: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/khaz-modan/Antonioklaus/talent/secondary

I logged out on my bear spec so I can't remember how I did my other stuff.

However, until you get some different gear, the 2005 mark is hard to get. Shoot, I'm only at 1700ish with higher level gear. Don't sacrifice INT for Haste.
Hitting the 2005 mark is tricky, but It's still attainable with less than optimal gear. Basically you have to sacrifice your spirit. As druids we don't need it anyways, but unlike before, it will force you to be incredibly mana conscious.

If there is no way with your current gear to hit 2005, your best staying at 916, and reforging everything to Mastery.

Check your gear against http://www.askmrrobot.com to see if you can optimize it.




reroll resto shaman. resto druid are so horrible in pvp atm.

Dont follow his spec, He hasnt even taken natures swiftness instead placing the point into blessing of the grove which is lackluster unless using a full hps build which sacrifices even more mana regen.

For your spec move points out of living seed and put atleast two into natures bounty, if you find yourself tank healing alot or want to keep our mastery up easier then go 3/3.
Awesome, appreciate all the help!!!
@Nova I dont PVP :D. I have a boomkin set for BG's but I'm resto for PVE.

@Joedysart. Thanks I'll take out of Living Seed and put em into natures bounty.

@anyone - I have a little bit of trouble with managing my mana at times. Innervate works well at times but what is a general way to manage my Mana a bit better? Any addons to monitor hots so I don't overlap etc etc.

Thanks everyone and I'll be keeping my mastery/Int

I really like this site: http://restodruid.info/talents/suggested-talent-specs/

I got my talent spec from: http://r4healingtouch.wordpress.com/cata-resto-healing-guide/
It's about 1/2 way down the page.

Personally, adding 4% to rejuv to me is better than Nature's Swiftness in the long run. Nature's swiftness is every 3 minutes. In that time, I've used Rejuv a ton.
Natures swiftness is only a 3min cd if you aren't glyphed fr it.......which you should be :) since the innervate glyph blows now.

Question for PVP boomkins

Should I be going for the 4 piece set or 2 and 2? I jsut started pvping again and realized how much solar cleaves own in BG's lmao.

Also, is luanr shower necessary for pvp? does it help more than hurt in msot situations? Like I said above, theres a lot of times where I like staying solar and shrooming
anyone? :(
Sorry, all boomkins are out playing ferals atm.
heads up the 2 and 2 bonus doesn't work anymore...4 set piece is the only that works. Lunar shower is important because of the reduced mana effects. and also the direct damage done from it... Yes moonfire spam isn't really recommended but in tight situations...Also when you spread damage in a BG you wont go oom.

Also just shrooming is not really...good, but not much pressure. Its better for traps if anything else

4 set piece and yes it helps because againts hunters the best strategy is since if you gte in melee range spam moonfire and insta starsurge when it procs they cant do anything
2&2 dosent work..go 4...and u do need lunar shower...because what if u r goin aginst a pally..he is about 5-10% hp left he pops bubble and runs u dnt have time to sit and hardcast,he will get away but if he dose run, run with him and spam MF keep on moveing so u have lunar shower up..its a great talent and saved me from a couple deaths myself.

Feral PVP Spec

I'm looking for a PVP Spec for Feral. I didn't see a specific PVP spec in the sticky's. Most of the sites I've googled have out of date info on them as well.

I'm also looking for an attack priority too. :) Thanks!
My spec is more or less the norm for pvp though there are always a couple points you move around for flavor.
Thanks Nightstalker. :)

1) shift into bear

2) mash buttons

3) win

how hard is it?

Depends on how bad your opponents are. If I was fighting you, I'm sure that strat would work just fine.
No problem my fellow druid. Remember to learn to master your use of shadowmeld as it is game changing at high end arena if used correctly :)

can check my second spec if you want. i'm in pve gear atm though.


http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/2743699609

lots of good info there.

please like and request sticky.
Hey Ellesîme you stole my spec!!

Jk

And pls request sticky of Spammers thread!

no you stole mine!


grats on shiny set btw :).

lol, i've got a 85 druid as well. it works just fine for just about anybody 1v1.

you act like druid is hard or something.

edit* deleted to avoid dbags like you, but alas- there are just so many of you.

I wasn't aware the only PvP in this game was 1v1. I may be a dbag but you're an arrogant moron, and that's the worst kind. I think I've got 1-up on you so far.

Play your Druid past 2200 with something other than kittycleave and let me know how well you do.
there should be some sort of screening process to post on the class forums imo.

can check my second spec if you want. i'm in pve gear atm though.

lots of good info there.

please like and request sticky.

As soon as I posted this one, I saw that one. LOL. I watched the vids and read a lot of the links. Great info!

groovy. i hope you liked and requested sticky, the mods have been suuppper slow getting to it....
I see people putting 1 point in Fury Swipes and 1 in Primal Madness, then others ignoring Primal Madness and just putting both points in Fury Swipes. Is this a matter of preference? They both appear to be pretty great.



1/2 in primal madness let's you get two shreds back to back after a zero energy TF.


1/3 fury swipes cause free damage is good and there isn't a better place for 1pt.


honestly you can move those points as you wish, perseverance in resto is a good choice for a more defensive build.
Some people take 1/2 Primal Madness because technically it's an extra Shred after you Tiger's Fury. On the other hand, Fury Swipes is a consistent form of RNG damage, which other people like to have.

I prefer taking neither and instead put my points in 2/3 Perseverance. I don't have a problem putting out burst damage and don't like putting any faith in RNG (though this full crit reforge build is working out incredibly well). The 4% damage reduction, however minimal, helps a bit against spellcleaves in 3s which is pretty much every other team above 2k rating.
Yeah those two pts are free for you to spend where you want them in most cases it wont win or lose you a game but just do what you like more.

Thanks as well Ellesîme I got my gear but our healer quit to focus on school so my other partner and I are just sitting around doing double dps in 2s until we find a new one haha.

stupid question on hybrid feral spec

So I've decided to try and make this toon a hybrid feral. I kind of already know the answer but I feel like I should ask anyway.. once I'm 85 will I be grinding for 2 sets of leather since bear and cat are gemmed differently? I would assume so since it seems costly to gem dodge/agility constantly to change my role.

Also while I'm on topic.. going hybrid.. when doing cat dps I realize I won't have as great an output.. but will the difference be big enough that I won't ever be accepted for raiding or anything? or put much simpler will I be pulling at least 10-14k dps if I do my rotations right?

Leveling question

Leveling Boomkin, and would like some basic assistance on what spells to use in what order. I'm taking a lot of damage just trying to throw out dots and do the correct eclipse spells. Is there a "leveling rotation" of some sort?

thankyou

Firelands Raiding Prep Feral DPS

Should I farm up honor pvp gear or the 359 justice gear for entry level feral dps in firelands?

Thanks
