Welcome to Druid Density.

As you people read this blog you will discover a wonderful world, not only World of Warcraft, but about Druids and how to use them in the most strategic and fun way possible. It will open up new ways to experience your Druid with not only help on how to spec it, but also in how to immerse yourself into bringing the best out of you and your class.

Since this is the opening post to my blog I won't be covering much; however there are a few things you should know about druids in case you are planning to start one.

For instance Druids are the most versatile class and yet they will always be the best at solo-questing. This is because of several reasons. Let's explain the first reason with our favourite form the Boomkin! This is the easiest of specs to play, as with the Boomkin's insane armour increase not to mention the crazy damage per second (dps). In another post I will dive more fully into Boomkins but as of now we need to move on to our next spec, the Feral Druid.

The Feral Druid dps is the funnest of all specs to play in my opinion, as it is quite easy to get geared and you can do amazing amounts of damage. Tanking is a little bit more difficult though. Blizzard made most of the gear for Feral Druids an imitation of the rogue gear which is pure dps. This is good for the dps specced Druid but when you need to tank, and you want more health or armour you have to try a lot harder to get good gear. Once again, this is another topic I will describe more fully in a later post.

Now on to the last spec which is a Resto Druid. This is a great healer that can heal dungeons and heroics quite well in my opinion as long as they know what they are doing. The catch is when they are healing raids. Unfortunatly it's true. Holy Priests are way bettter at this as they have way more area of effect (aoe) heals. Resto Druids can heal very well for Arenas though, for reasons I will explain on another day.

These are all the specs that a Druid can get and even if you level up as a feral druid or any other spec you can always just switch them at a Druid trainer and open up a whole new world for your class up. I hope you enjoyed this inital post for my blog and I wish you will come back often. This is Nidanar, signing out. : )
