Zing-ding-a-ling 64

Posted by: Gahlok In: General

Well, last night I hit Lv. 64 on my druid. I also had a chance to visit Mana Tombs, and it was rather interesting.

I was kinda scared because the instance was higher level than I was… and trust me, mobs there hit for a ton! I was being aided on healing by Aevise, and the run went smooth (but also kinda slow, hehe). The group I got in (thanks to Aross) was very good, they all did their crown control and stuff like that. By the way, I’ve updated a couple of my profiles (rpgo-Profiles, CTProfiles).

I got Lifebloom last night

Lifebloom
Rank 1
Heals the target for 273 over 7 seconds. When Lifebloom completes its duration or is dispelled, the target is instantly healed for 600. This effect can stack up to 3 times on the same target.
Heals 39 every second and 600 when effect finishes or is dispelled.

This is how it works with my gear

I don’t know about other druids, but I love it: instant cast, very low mana usage and it’s really great, imagine it stacked with a reju and a regrowth!

On other news, I’m seriously thinking about speccing feral tonight (which might be something like this). I love instancing, I’ve been able to level relatively fast and all of that, but the problem I’m facing at the moment is getting groups, I can make around 10% per instance run, and I could make an awesome amount if I can get groups, but then, most of my guild is higher level than me (because I joined TBC late) so they are doing their stuff (there are at least 6 or so 70’s already in my guild), and getting pugs (which I do) takes a bit, plus the explanaition of the instance (there’s always people that has never been there so you have to explain how the pulls work, what the mobs do and the boss fights).

For example, at my current rate I level on two days (it takes me two days to get one level). I play more or less around 6-7 hours. Lets say that instance runs take around 1 hour, if it’s a pug you have to wait until the groups are formed (so its not like you go every hour to a run). Sometimes I get 3-4 runs per night, other times I can get 5-6 runs per night.

I’ve solo quested, but given my resto spec, it doesn’t make things faster (or that’s what I think). Also I’ve been in groups with feral druids so I guess now it’s not too hard to get into groups as dps. I’ve only been feral once, a very long time ago, and I only lasted a day (didn’t like it, horde kept owning me, lol, but I never leveled with the spec).

I personally like resto spec since I use Nature’s Swiftness for more than just heals, such as an instant roots on that sucker trying to escape my wrath.

With feral spec thou, you can solo grind much faster and still be able to get in groups. With resto you will find groups, but solo grinding can be a pain.

I hear Moonkin pumps out some DPS now too, but I could never go Moonkin since my main is a Mage.

For leveling, definitely go feral if you feel like it. If you want to stay as healer, just put only some of talent points to Resto tree as well… However, being a hybrid is definitely not recommended, cuz you wouldn’t be pro at anything :-)

I went Moonkin for levelling since it is unbeatable when we are talking about DPS and the speed of killing one mobs.

Taking into account your current mana based gear, moonkin would be probably better for ya.

At least I did that way.
