Phaelia Blizzcon Class Panel

For those of us unable to attend Blizzcon this weekend, WoWInsider is providing up-to-the-minute blog posts detailing the discussions and events therein. One of the panels today was the WoW Class Panel wherein developers (including Rob Pardo, shown at right) discuss specific issues related to individual classes. Obviously, more than just the Druid class was discussed so be sure to check out the full summary, but of particular note for Druids are:

Bears tanking and cats killing. Wanted to make sure druids could be viable tanks or DPS in groups and raids. Not just a soloing spec.

Feral and Balance just don’t mix. So planned for mixing with Resto.

No matter what, you still want to heal sometimes.

Druid tree form — too limited — inability to cast all Resto spells. Can only be a backup healer.

Do plan to extend abilities. Decurse and unpoison in tree form. Wanted the tree form to feel different, but will reduce limitations.

We all suspected that changes were coming to ToL restrictions, but it’s nice to see another confirmation.

The Sprout(ed) Seed (87)

15 short years till he wants to borrow the car! Cheers!

As much as I loved writing Resto4Life and am enjoying playing again (even if in a very limited capacity), I don’t have the time to devote to blogging anymore. Instead, I’ve been learning2play from Keeva at TreeBarkJacket.com and Lissanna at Restokin.com. :-) I am excited that BRK is back, though!

tkc
Soooo, with BRK back in action, I’m wondering if Phae will get recruited too.

The Belkin Nostromo N52 TE (73)

Hi, Too bad this blog is no longer maimtained. Thanks for you post though. I wanted to address the issue of lefties. I am on, and use the N52TE. I use a trackball with my right hand and the n52TE with my left, no problems.

I didn’t read the pages upon pages of comments so I don’t know if these issues have already been hit, but I can think of two things as a boomkin/tank druid that have helped immensely with my nostromo. First off, turn off the diagonals on the D-pad. Wow kindof accounts for these innately by combining vert/horizontal key presses. Having the nostromo keyed to do this is redundant and screws up movement. The second is key spam macro’s. I have my nostromo 6 buttom set to...
Andrige’s Shapeshift Skins (72)

Sweet thanks for sharing! And i thought I was the only one disappointed in WoW’s art and character customization! Let’s hope Cataclysm has more in the works of real visual art like this instead of middle school quality graphic farts!
Direct Healing in Wrath (103)

Phaelia
@Otta: This article is out of date and no longer relevant. I understand Nourish is now the preferred choice over Regrowth, though you should keep a RG on your tank for its HoT component. As the methods for finding this information are explained, someone should be able to apply them along with the new values to create an updated comparison. I, however, am not that person. :-)

Otta
Ok, just found this post, and it’s long and interesting, quick dumb question tho, the numbers for nourish with hots, is that the healing both by the nourish alone or also the hots that are running? I used to use regrowth and now use nourish, debate is whether to switch back. I also am specced into tranquil spirit – am guessing thats weird comapred to this info!
