[WoW] Thinking on coming back, how much has it changed? - Page 38

Wool and Mageweave were always frustrating on Ysera. The bolts take more cloth than linen and you can easily rush though those levels with the new xp curve and quest xp. Runecloth stays decent b/c of the first half of BC.

It does, gathering professions make the most money with mining being the most I think.

How are druids now? Been since like, when Gruul was hard since I played. I always wanted to try one out though, maybe I will now.

Aria · 07-02-2008, 09:18 PM

Every class is good at the game.. but druids are a step above.

A long time ago, Druids were kinda shit. Feral was laughable, balance not much better and you had to spec down into innervate to be of any use to your guild as a healer. That ended with BC but the bandwagon took until the arena was implemented to get going fully.

Druids are everywhere. Most of them horrible but the population is growing. Join them, they're great fun but don't suck. Please. Just don't suck.

Mythas · 07-02-2008, 11:30 PM

As it stands you should play a hybrid. With as much fucking whining all the hybrid classes to make each role they can play viable, there is fuck all of a reason to play a pure class.

So yeah play a druid. They are great healers, tanks, and with wotlk seemingly good dps. I second the just don't suck advice.

It's world of roguecraft if you're into PvP. Unless you are ONLY into 2v2, in which case, druid is it. Although rogue/druid teams are popular as well.

kind of a retarded question considering i have a prot war.. but i just got bored and respeced my holy paladin to prot.. any suggestions on where to obtain some quick blues with defense for these slots

Id like to try and get him into OTing kara or something so im just trying to hit the 490 cap, 40 defense short shouldnt be hard to do. Shield from SL i guess?

This looks like a good start.

You'll also want to find some type of heavy sedative when you realize how easy Prot Pally is to play in a tanking situation compared to the effort it takes to play Prot War at the same level.

Fixed.

Raiding prot is a different story. 15 second cooldown on tuant is bullshit. Taking 20 seconds to regain the mana to taunt is even more bullshit. Trying to build threat on something you aren't tanking is damn near fucking impossible.

Needless · 07-03-2008, 10:43 AM

so youre telling me prot paladins arent the big red easybutton for agro managment?!

Cursed, i better just stick to my ezmode warrior

Mythas · 07-03-2008, 11:02 AM

When they don't start off tanking no, but then again there isn't much in the game that forces or mandates tank switching. Some encounters yes.

So i guess its a valid gripe of the paladin tank. Though all tanks have drawbacks, i guess its just the paladin tanks that shouldn't have to have any.

Zehn - Vhex · 07-03-2008, 11:41 AM

Roughly 80% of paladin threat relies on the target standing still and hitting you. Granted warriors aren't much better off either with being rage starved if not hitting shit.

But no, it's not 'lol ezmoad afktank!' in any content that matters.
