RSSDruids – WoW’s Famous Hybrid Class
October 31st, 2009 by admin | Filed under copy playstation games.
When it comes to hybrid classes in the World of Warcraft the most popular one is definitely the Druid class. The reason for this is surely a lot of fun that this amazing class has to offer. If you choose the Alliance side, you can become a Druid by choosing the Night Elf race, while if you are playing on the Horde side you can become a Druid by choosing the Tauren race.
With so many different abilities Druids are mostly famous for their shape-shifting. Druids have a lot of forms they can shapeshift into like Bear, Cat, Sea Lion and Travel form. The BC expansion, Druids obtained another form - the flight form. While all other classes had to wait until level 70 to be able to use their flying mounts, Druids could use their flight form on the level 68!. A fun thing when it comes to this ability was that a Druid flight form is an instant cast same as any other form they had which made them even more movable.

Druids could become very good healers, casters, melee dpsers and tanks and their talent tree is divided into three specializations – Feral Combat, Balance and Restoration. With the Balance talent build, a Druid will be able to shapeshift into another very fun form – the Moonkin which will allow him to become a typical caster damage dealer.
Druid’s moonkin form will afflict the whole raid and all other players will have an amazing benefit with +5% on critical strike rating. A Moonkin, or as popularly called “Boomkin” is a typical mana user.
However, to become a really good dps, a Moonkin needs to learn how to rotate his spells together with a few DoT (Damage Over Time) spells he has. He also has a few AoE spells – Starfall, Typhoon and Hurricane. Moonkins need to have good gear with as much spell power as possible and a lot of haste, crit and hit rating. Feral Druids can choose between a tank spec or a melee dps spec.
While in bear form they will be really good tanks since they will have a lot of armor and stamina, and if they choose the cat form they can also be really good melee dpsers. With his talent points in the Restoration tree, a druid will get another special form – the tree form.

While in the tree form druid’s spells will cost him less mana and the overall healing will be enhanced for 6% done by anybody to anybody in the same raid group. A druid healer is the ultimate Healing over Time (HoT) healer and therefore he is very much appreciated in raids. Their healing abilities are dependent on their gear which needs to have a lot of spell power and spirit and it is said that Resto Druids are able to regenerate mana much faster than any other healing class.
Druids wear leather even though they can also wear cloth if needed. If you choose to become a Druid tank or melee dps it is strongly advisable to avoid wearing cloth since armors made from leather always have much better stats. However, armors made from cloth can serve good to Resto Druids and, in some cases, Moonkins since they don’t take direct damage. For a Druid tank it is of the essence to have as strongest armor as he can get with as much Stamina as possible.
If you choose either PvE or PvP game play, have no doubts when it comes to the Druid class since they are really fun to play and you can always change your spec. Leveling a druid also goes quite easy and is advisable to start with the Feral Combat build. Don’t forget that a Druid can always instantly shapeshift in order to swim faster, breathe underwater and of course travel faster.
