Blance Druids (PvP)

Well i've been playing with Balance druids a lot on a different PvP server (don't worry, just while the maintanence is being done! Razz

), and I've found them to be very powerful in the world of Player Versus Player combat with their burst DPS skills.

Moonkins truly shine in PvP. Starfire and wrath can quickly chip away at an enemy's health while the DoT from Moonfire finishes off anyone who runs away. One thing that should be taken to heart: Moonfire spam is fun and ticks a lot of people off but absolutely destroys your mana supply. Moonfire spam should only be used to finish off a fleeing opponent, or as a last ditch effort to survive. Also, by spamming Moonfire, you never allow its DoT to run its course, because every time you cast Moonfire, its timer resets. If you insist on spamming Moonfire, cast your highest rank first then switch to your second highest. This still deals massive damage but it also allows your DoT to run its course. Also, Insect Swarm does decent damage per point of mana and its marginal reduction in hit chance isn't too shabby. Entangling Roots, unfortunately, is becoming less useful as time passes because more and more classes are being given ways to escape snare effects. If anything, it still delays a player from reaching you, which usually will give you the time to cast a Starfire/Moonfire combo.

I would highly suggest beginning all fights in Cat Form (stealthed) so you can make a suprise-attack on your bitch.

Try opening a fight with treants and/or starfall. Then root them, and nuke. Do not start by using moonfire, as tempting as that is, as it will detract from initial burst damage. When fighting a stealther, Typhoon is a great spell to knock them out of it if you know their general location.

Just some tips, hope they help all you aspiring Balance Dr00d fanboys out there.

Some things quoted from http://www.wowwiki.com/Moonkin_Form but nevertheless these are just must-know things about druids. Myself I have always loved feral, even though people are telling me I play it wrong and my points are weird, because I haven't set some spells and went in Resto to like 3, 4 tiers but let me tell you, it all depends on how you play. Any character you make will require study, both on the internet and ingame. Knowing your character will give you a great advantage over those who spam few butons and go for AP and SP, about only 2/10 people feral vs feral chose to Cyclone and Hybernate me during the fight even though they had all chances, you know what I mean Wink

Good luck druid fellas'
