Come on guys, you should have learned this 2 seasons ago. Chasing the same of any class around a pillar for any amount of time is them taking advantage of you, and you deserve to lose. Switch targets, force the druid to come out and heal.

Yeah I've done that more times than not, still doesn't make the druid any less of a machine in arena.

Janx you are a tard ,thats not even how our hots work.

Jubee · 06-20-2008, 12:28 PM

And because every team has a Priest/Shaman with enough free time to purge every hot right?

Right?

Saban · 06-20-2008, 01:01 PM

Didn't you guys hear? Rogues/druids are perfectly balanced.

Well if you have one of those..yes..yes they do. Or Spell steal.

They are retarded though. Between barkskin, nature's grasp, cyclone, bear form and travel form, they are hard as fuck to nail down.

I do it in 2v2 all the time. Druid have weaknesses, DoTs expecially. I'll load up DoT on them and their partner and slowly wear em down. Mana Burn + Vampiric Touch staying up all the time means my mana will outlast a resto druid.

If only it were that easy...

Pretty much. Only Heal/DPS 2v2 teams that compete with Druids have a Priest or a Shaman in them.

I hate Rogues more. Any team with a Rogue in it can work, but a Druid really needs someone that can snare and won't run out of mana.

Does spellsteal take the entire 3 stack of lifebloom ? Cause that's the only way I can see that suggetion not being retarded.

Even if it did, it wouldn't help. The bloom would trigger and the druid can just reapply a fresh one. I love it when I'm getting dispelled/stolen and all I've got up are LB's. Makes my job just that much easier.

Trifle · 06-24-2008, 06:34 AM

Ya seriously, not only do you have to worry about dispel resistance wasting global cooldowns, the fact that purge and lifebloom have pretty similair mana costs, and the instant heal when lifebloom is dispelled... at certain gear levels purge is irrelevant and the druid can keep up their target anyway.

(Well, in 2vs2 at least)

You are below 1600 right?

column · 06-24-2008, 07:31 AM

Just for shits and giggle..went 54-0 in 2v2 last night,and probly could have done more but I had to get some sleep for work the next day.
Granted this was on a fresh team,and not in my normal 2k bracket.Still fun tho.

Today is going to be crazy,anyone remember the first few weeks of season 3? Hoping I can get up to around 1700+ by the end of the day due to the weird matchups and rankings that will be going on.

That will at least net me and my war partner all of season 4 minus shoulders and weapons,but we have full S3 so no biggie.

Trying to arena as a paladin makes me want to stab myself in the dick. Watching fucking shaman and Druids run around healing themselves with all their instants and that bullshit earth shield and all i'm doing is getting maybe 1 in 3 heals off.

My mana conversation and regen is fucking shit, my big heal costs so much mana and my small heal doesnt do fuck all, BoFreedom is always on CD and so is my bubble.

Playing a paladin in 2 is very painful, in 3 it is OK as a 2 healer set up, in 5's you are pretty much mandatory unless you are running a very very heavy CC or DPS team (eurocomp or 4 dps).

Ret paladins are very strong in cleave teams in both 3's and 5's.

Sadly - you will never be as powerful as a druid in 2's and 3's and that's completely bullshit. You can still hit gladiator easily enough though if you are good and practice faking heals.
