World pvp druid or paladin?

Recommended Posts

If you kept the question at a higher level, paladin vs druid, I would probably say a holy paladin as they are near unkillable and can turn the tide of a battle. Resto druids are good too but the pallies plate and mana efficiency shine through.

 

But back to your original question, feral druid or ret pally, I would have to say feral druid anytime. I know Esfand is the ret pally gold standard but you are going to spend a lot of time and effort trying to get close to what he does. Feral druids offer you a lot of flexibility and I don't think there is any 1 class that is anti-druid.

I play Druid and I play almost "exclusively" world pvp,

Druid is great at it. It has pros and cons compared to other classes, but can beat any class.
The spec I'm playing is hybrid like 19/21/11 (balance/feral/resto)
The hardest to beat imo is probably :
* surviving a rogue who gets a invisible opening on you
* warlocks : their shadow spells + fear seem to counter the druid the best
* hunters : a lack of fast ranged damage for the druid makes it hard to get a good opening on hunters, you tend to get very vulnerable as soon as they get some ranged shot at you, you'll probably need to track them also running away from them can be hard or denied by currently the pets being able to track you even after you turn invisible

the easiest to beat imo probably :
* mages can get killed fast and have difficulty controlling you cause you can shapeshift out of their main control stuff, however I think mage vs druid is difficult to play but if mage player is good they can do lot of stuff and definitely can win. I think fire or arcane mage would be good vs druid but I rarely see?
* warriors have difficulty against the control of druid, and when they get to offensive melee you do have your bear form, but again good warrior players will use different stuff and not so easy to beat at all. I guess these two classes lose easily when the player makes mistakes, but if not nice fight.

the way the fights turn out with druid vs any class are often interesting and varied, it's rly fun to play, you have lot of options, also I'm sure its true for most classes but I have found that you can beat players with some of the big purple gear without having it yourself so that's great (gotta love vanilla its quite rly nicely balanced)

you don't have to be feral to be good as druid in wpvp, though feral may be the most versatile (?), and probably the most efficient at killing a lot of monsters while hunting for pvp. But balance and resto and any hybrid specs clearly all have their edges against different things.

I don't know much about pala since I never fight them, should do some duels oO' back in vanilla days I remember ppl dueling all the time in front of ironforge but on elysium I don't see that but the outdoors pvp is the best I have experienced I think, great stuff. Well probably in vanilla days of blizzard, the outdoors pvp might have been better at lower levels, because with less crowding I think its definitely better for low level pvp. But at high/max level the crowding on elysium is pretty ace. (never experienced max level in vanilla blizz days had not enough time for wow)

if you have any question about wpvp druid i can try answer^^

 

oh and if you make a druid I recommend chosing your spec yourself with some freedom because a lot is possible and viable for wpvp I think, many different edges you can pick, I maybe wanna write smtg about my opinion on talents cause I looked at them a lot lawl
