Sorry for the gap in content friends! This last week has been ROUGH for me. Last Thursday my computer crashed (for context today is Thursday and I just got my PC back), and I also fell super sick. Some of my files were corrupted and I ended up having to re-record about 80% of the audio. I'm so happy to finally have this video out, and I really hope you enjoy it! As always I love your feedback
I’m leveling as balance rn with omen of clarity staff bonking and moonfireing between autos, I’ve been pulling 40-50 dps, only about 5-10 less than full spamming starfire, but mana is crazy effecient and you can spread dots for fake aoe, using a lower rank of moonfire to not overwrite dot on single target
I love the druid class fantasy but in vanilla it lowkey sucks being the jack of all trades master of none. Feral requires you farm out low level dungeons permanently just to do competitive dps and OOMkin just sucks in vanilla for raiding and for PVP its essentially just a worse fire mage. All this and they aren't even that amazing healers either (idk how this works with dot cap removed though) in all my time every raid I've been in only ever has 2 druids, 1 of them being forced to healing touch only as rejuv can't be stacked and hots
Feral Druids actually do decent damage in dungeons while leveling if played right, but none of the specs are top tier for sure. I think they are actually great healers in raid! You're correct that we only use Healing Touch, so it isn't the most enthralling gameplay, but they are very mana efficient and can easily compete with the other healers in the right hands. I actually have a video coming out today about P1 Raid Healing if you wanna check it out =)
@@GriffintheDude88 For sure, I didn't mean they were 100% bad healers I think I was just thinking about the gameplay and being forced onto 1 and only 1 out of x amount of healing spells I think thats just most classes in vanilla though, healing at the highest levels really isn't too complex outside of downranking the same spell with healing power gear
It is kind of sad that we don't really get to use our Healing Over Time spells when it is such a big part of the class fantasy. In fact back in 2019 our healers were banned from using certain spells for fear they would knock off important buffs. HoTs aren't really efficient in Phase 1, so even with the removal of the buff limit we're mostly casting Healing Touch. In future phases with better gear Regrowth and Rejuvenation become MUCH more viable. I'm excited!
@@jlangdon634 haha no offense taken. I laughed super hard when I read that. Umm I don't have a list compiled, but I will work on putting one together, and I'll pin it in the comments.

Omg thank you that’s so nice! I appreciate the support ❤️
Great video !
Thanks for the video. What add-on are you using that has the numbers sort of cascading down around you
Thanks for making this guide, it is very educational. May I ask what addon do you use for displaying the combat text around your character?
For this I use Mik’s Scrolling Battle Text addon

That's a great idea! I didn't really consider melee weaving with Omen as a Moonkin, but that definitely works.
