Restoration Druids are good healers, but by no means are the strongest healers in the game. For raids, you need to be using a solid Healing Spec, not a Hybrid Healing spec. For 5 mans, do whatever you want.

With the right gear, Boomkin & Feral(kitty) can be devastating in PvP. As far as Druids go for Raid slots, Most guilds would only allow up to 1 Druid Tank but is very gear dependent in early release. Then you'll typically have up to 2 Druid Healers in Raids. Unless you join a very casual guild, you will not be DPSing as a Druid. If you do end up joining a Guild as a druid DPS; you will find yourself doing very limited DPS even with perfect gear/consumables/buffs.

Gear question on Flame Imps in MC40 I just found out that my guild has asked me to be ready to pull imps for future MC40 raids. Is there specific gear checks you want to meet so you don't get 1shot? also I am referring to the Fresh start server (pre-buff loot) X amount of health X amount of fire resist X amount of defense

So after spending some time reading the warriors thread, someone confirmed that ironfoes proc rate is blizzlike (used to be 10%, now it's about 5-6%) Also a patch note said there was a hotfix to SoR procing off of weapon procs. Exactly how good is ironfoe for paladin tanking? Edit: to add, for solo farming - is this a must have weapon regardless of your spec?

Sageblade recipe doesn't drop for a long time.

After the changes to the Rage Mechanics, I've seen a lot of people saying that the 1.30 weapons are no longer BiS. Is there an updated thread/list regarding the best weapons for tanking after the hotfix?

I too want to know this. I'd like to be able to play an optimal healing spec but I heard a lot about holy/reck builds

Love you snow<3

I'll take a look at the spreadsheet more intensely later this week. My first recommendation would be to add a redirection link to vanillagaming on each item.

out of curiosity, what kind of weapon stats does a Holy/Reckadin try to obtain for a 2h'er?

Just donated, keep up the good work!

Came home from work, received 3 email verifications (been almost 24 hours). all 3 of them were invalid because I requested multiple verification emails. staying tune. #Yahoo

It's been 9+ hours since I requested my first Verification email. I've requested 2 additional emails to be sent without receiving anything yet. Attempted to go into Discord and ask for support from a GM. No response.

Still waiting on my verification email too :/

If conc scales like it did on nost, then it would be viable while you level. But when you heal while taking damage; you're increasing your chances to receive crushing blows. At 60, this would only be viable in 5mans with decked out gear.If conc scales with with AP then you'll want the 10% str over 10% int.

According to google trends, the search rate for Nostalrius was tripled after the announcement of deactivating their servers & J. Allen Brack response on the official wow forums. Taking that into consideration, you could expect up to x3 more players than before the shutdown announcement.

CANT FREAKING WAIT THANK YOU SO MUCH Please give us a big heads up on the fresh release server so we can all get time off work!!!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but str enchants will give you 3.3 dps increase based on stat weights. 3% haste multiplier vs a flat 3.30 dps increase.

Haste is worth it. Haste enchants scale with your gear, strength enchants do not. And if your guild requires you to get world buffs for progression raiding, you're truly screwing yourself over. I believe someone made a detailed post on why haste enchants are better than strength enchants on nostalrius forums with math to back it up.

Honestly there's no reason to be unmotivated to play a druid healer. Typically you'll see up to 2 druid healers and up to 1 druid tank in 40mans. Most tier items are not bis for druid tanking. Basically this means as a druid healer, tier loot is thrown at your face with little-to-none competition. Even if druid healers aren't god-tier healers; you'll definitely be getting geared quicker than anyone else. To add: if you've always wanted to try boomkin pvp, then you have all the more reason to heal in raids. A lot of amazing gear drops later on in raids that you'll never dream of getting unless you are druid healing for your guild If it wasn't for the fact I love playing vanilla paladins, I'd probably play a druid. PS: druid leveling is easy as dirt. No down time between each mob and travel form is op for gathering professions

TBH the only thing I care about is a smooth launch and a big enough heads up so that the people w/ jobs can request time off to go ham on the leveling

Hunters are viable dps and there are a few boss fights that are incredibly easier by bringing hunters. Bad players will make viable spec look bad Amazing players will make it work even if it shouldn't

Great video man. You've inspired me to do some in-depth research on lvl 1-60 mob grinding for Melee DPS (low hp low armor mobs). Thanks!

First! Can't wait to crash your servers.
