Like I said last night. You going to waste more money doing a respec.

1. Once you hit lvl 70 you need to BG like a mad man for some gear to start you off with.
2. You will Arena for some more gear
3. You will raid, and can raid in Moonkin like I said last night.

Play the spec you want to play, don't play what the people want you to play ;)

I had to heal SL last nigth we only completed first boss wiped so fast on second one cause they had moonkin for healer.Mind controling dude wasted us big time i hate it cause i know i could tank him i did tank him the weekend but i so love my ballance spec for pvp and for pve i like feral i am a man thorne between two specs its sad but true lol.

Think only way for me to live with it is to get gear for both specs.

I got 80 AV marks of honour,30 wsg and 30 ab with 25000 honour that i got left over from lvl 59 bg(ballance pawnage in bg lol)

True to spec to be needed is dumb i dont like being pawned in feral by shamies lol cause i own them in ballance.I got baddly owned by elemental shamie with my feral spec and i never lose to them that really made me miss ballance why i whent back and i dueled same shamie again pawned him flawlessly. :)

Dude what the link to that website you gave me yesterday?
Think i entered it wrong?
 
I think Tank or healer is the way to go for a druid, moonkin druids are a waste in PVE so dont expect much love when it comes to LFG. IMO the best spec would be resto, you are loved by all in BG's , PVE , and you own all in arena!, as a feral you wont ever have a problem finding a spot in a dungeon grp but you are limited in PVP, oomkins are dangerous in BG's but suck in arena and PVE.

Or find a guild that has space for a Moonkin as Ranged DPS.
There is place for them, they are just few as people either wnat a druid to tank or heal. Moonkin does mother DPS :eek:
 
hey lol

It all depends what you want to achive in the game lol. If you want to be sure see all the 25man raids, lol, and you want to raid every night, dont spec balance lol. Because feral and resto is so very much more in demand you will get into a proper guild much quicker lol. You can always recruit more druids for tanking later and respec to balance yourself lol.

lol Personally I specced holy because I love instancing and as holy you never have a problem getting into a group lol. Imo instancing is a more entertaining way to lvl than simply grinding quests only, meeting new ppl etc lol.

lolol

Not really. It's just that Boomkin is a bad pve spec (and not much better for pvp). If it had working cc indoors (which is where 90% of raids and instances take place) and didnt pull aggro all the time, it would be ok. The fact that it doesn't, and competes with other casters that do have working cc, better overall damage, comparable utility and buffs means you'll always be the last choice for a dps spot.

Every class has roles it's known for and best at. For druids it's tanking and healing. Speccing ranged dps is like a paladin speccing ret instead of prot or holy. You're setting yourself up for a lifetime of being the last kid picked for the team. If you remain adamant about playing whatever spec you want because you want to enjoy the game the way you want to, fine, by all means do. But don't expect other people to gimp their 5mans/heroics/etc to accomodate *you*. They will take the best class+spec for the job, and Balance, sad to say, is not it.

I'm sure this was mentioned before.

In pretty much all the other druid threads if i'm not mistaken... If you will want to raid, sure stick with your spec you like... doesn't mean the management will agree with your choices

Part of raiding is getting the most dmg out of your class/spec, if you wont spec to something valuable to the raid, why would they take you?

IE; (and also what Khayne said) fury warriors, ret pallys are other examples of classes raids dont want.
 
You can bring along the token fury, or ret, or owl. But it'll always just be for their buffs, not because they do crazy damage. Eg you'll take 1 fury to help buff the melee pack (battle shout, thunderclap) - if it wasn't for those buffs/debuffs, you'd jsut take another rogue. Same for enhance shammise - without windfury totem? No-one would bother. Same for owls and their crit aura, same for ret's and their seals. And you only 'need' one of them to get those buffs/debuffs. Dragging along 5 moonkins to a raid is just a bad, bad idea. But 5 mages? Or warlocks? Hell yeah, gief.

lol, ok let me try and put in it your language lol. In our guild lol, we have an abondonce of builds lol. There is place for fury warriors lol, and lol there is space for retribution Pala's lol. Every spec has it's benefits lol, meaning lol one more Battle ress lol would be allot better lol, than a lol discipline priest lol.
So lol meaning lol that a balance spec has it's lol place. Same as a lol, combat/Hemo/Sub spec rogue. lol every one has a specific roll lol. Sub is more crowd controle Combat and Hemo had other benefits lol.

Fury warrior has it's place as a very good DPS lol and with a shield 1h macro can be a very good off tank if need be lol.

There is lol place in a raid for a Walock sl/sl build lol and Demo or afliction lol.

So in short, lol maybe read up more on the different specs lol and make them works in your group lol. The reason you don't see Moonkin lol is cos Druids lol has become the replacement lol for the shortage of healers lol and Tanks lol. Once Death night comes everyone will have one and then lol, you expect all druids to be resto lol.

O and they can still shift form and do other rolls while on Balance. Off heal, off tank, DPS

You're wrong mate

o sorry i forgot

lol

I dunno hey Khayne. I do alright on the meters as Enhance and I'm wearing 3 items from 25man content in a Raid with people wearing stuff from BT/MH.
Hybrid's are more viable now then ever before and if you play well you can make the "pure" classes sweat.
 
lol good points lol lol

but lol i think lol lol the op lol was more emo about lolBalance for normal 5man lol instances looooolll.

ie it's **** lol.
 
Shammies are the exception to the rule because we are offensive rather than defensive hybrids. I'll agree that a well geared Enhance can do top dps. Same with Elemental, and they can compete with the 'pure' classes in the dps stakes while bringing the best buffs in the game to bear for their parties. The only thing limiting more spots for shammies is their lack of cc.
It's why Blizzard will never give shamans a cc. If they did, you could make a raid out of 24 shammies and a tank.

Rets and Furies otoh can *only* really do well if they have a WF totem. And Balance is just,well, sub par (cat's do better, imo). At least in every raid/guild I've been in. Maybe there are some overgeared owls out their owning up the charts... just that I've never seen one personally.

I'm raiding with a Oomkin who's pushing out decent DPS but i'll agree that they're not often seen.
Our Fury warriors are IMO failcakes. On Vashj the one was waxing lyrical about his 3K AP and some other epeen rubbish and I pretty much pounded him into the ground on the meters. It was kinda sad. I even had WF down for him.
Personally I think it's just bad DPS Warriors because I kno they can molest things something chronic when the right person plays them.
I've yet to Raid with a Ret Pally who actually looks worth his raid spot though.
Pretty much every one I've seen tends to get beaten by the Tanks.
 
Sebudai said it best.
"It's pretty easy to calculate your dps when you're laying face down in the dirt."
Or something to that effect.

Fury warriors need a lot of babysitting. They can do significant dps on those really long boss fights, but when any kind of mobility and self-sufficience is required, they tend to suck horribly (no vanish or cloak or sprint, no grounding totem or selfheals, no bubbles or LoH, no Feint or Fade or Soul Shatter or Feign Death, no nothing). Esp those nub fury warriors who don't know what a shield is. *Sigh*. I had an argument with a friend of a fury in our guild who said that the way he sees it a fury warrior should never need a shield or an offtank set. Double sigh. That's like playing a feral druid and never, ever casting Innervate or Tranquility.
When the bloody MT goes down, you strap on that shield, switch to defensive stance, and at least TRY to save the bloody raid instead of being another worthless numbers whore.

It's possible yes but it really needs an entire group built *specifically* to boost them. You need a enhance totem-twisting, you need a feral for the LotP crit aura, and a hunter for Ferocious Insp/TSA. That combined with top-notch gear, can result in a fury warrior *maybe* outdpsing the rogues.
But the thing is, you can take a good rogue and dump him in the caster pack and he'll still push out brutal dps.
It's for this reason that, while I like the idea of the token fury in the raid, we'll never have a spot in any one raid for more than one. They remain a gimmick in my eyes. Combat Sword rogues are, imo, a better choice 9 out of 10 times.

Haha Sebudai is always good for inspirational quotes like that.

Yeah people forget that Hyrbid doesn't just mean you do one thing but can do many. I've had to stop DPSing and throw heals many times. It's just one of those things.
 
Except for the pure dps classes, every class has multiple roles it can fill in a pinch even if not specced for it. Furies *can* offtank in KZ, for eg, or even trash in 25mans. So *have a shield*. Enhance shammies *can* throw out some LHW's on the tank if he's looking strained (what else are you realistically gonna do with all that mana that Sham.Rage and t6 gear grants?). Resto druids *can* cc the dragonhawks in TK. Etc etc.
So it really grates my cheese when a 'lilImFury' warrior point blank refuses to offtank something when it becomes necessary.
People need to learn to extract the full 100% of their class's capabilities. If your a DPS warrior, that means occasionally tanking ****.
 
One thing I've noticed in all instances.

I'm the only rogue that uses Blind :eek:
Is that good or bad ?
