Tonight the expansion comes out, and in about 24 hours or so, I should have a druid made, unless something goes wrong with WoW or my internet. Jinx.
I've tried making a druid 3 times now. Twice as a night elf, once as a tauren. All of these were within the year, but not recent enough to benefit from the more recent patches.
There's some few things that have always bothered me about druids.
-The lack of shield. This also bothers me in DKs. Somehow, it always clicks in my mind that a rogue could somehow tank better than a DK. Because they...dodge more? I dunno. But the lack of shields on tanks always bothers me. If they ever took shields away from pallies, it would bother me too.
-The lack of plate. Leather doesn't seem to have as much armor....sure, bear form fixes that, but those two things...I dunno.
-Having to shapeshift. See, I like the idea of shapeshifting...for fun. Not for tanking. It feels....weird. It could be argued that stances are the same thing. But the stance doesn't really change your cosmetic make up...just your repertoire.
-The fact that druids were considered the easy, OP class, aside from paladins. And this held true up to recently. It seems that druid healing is no longer as OP as it used to be. Druid tanking was infamous for being a no-brainer, but also lackluster. I've been reading that where it used to be somewhat difficult to tank mobs with a bear, now it's doubly so. And this particular tidbit fuels my interest.
We'll see how it goes. Right now, I don't even have bear form yet, so I wouldn't even know where to begin, truth be told. We'll see indeed.
