hey all,

I'm currently level 64 with 18 spent aa's and 3 banked

I have
run 3
regen 3
SCM 2
HG 1
HA 1
MC 1


I have about 40% into my 4th aa. Should I

A.) Buy SoTW
B.) Buy RC1 and SCF1
C.) Save 2 more after that and buy SCM3?

all 3 have serious benefits to me... I know scm3 is the standard choice.

I went a somewhat similar route, getting only SCM 2 and lvl 1 in several other archetype skills. As for SCF 1, I crit very rarely and very infrequently... it's purely eye candy, and generally only serves to remind me that it never happens :-). If I could have a do-over, this would probably be the only AA I'd change.

Aside from SCF1, I don't think you'd do bad with any of the choices. You have enough AAs to open the class-specific abilities - have you given any thought to Exodus or Innate Camo?

Get SCM3, its the best AA set out there so why not finish it off?

because SoTW is so cool :P Yeah I was more torn between SCM3 and SoTW..I'll probably get SCM3... I'm needing more mana savings on my nukes {yes I know it affects all spells} as an alteration specced druid. No I don't want to redo my specialize either...I end up healing enough for it to still be my primary concern.. and its ports roots snares too .. so I'm still confident in that choice.

SotW, innate cammo and exodus are game changing abilities for a druid, IMO. I would look at get'n them asap.

Get level 65 first, then SCM3, then Innate Camouflage.

that was my plan Tumadorf Tudamorf (thanks dysxlexia).. but I came into 2 aa's via flagging and almost had one banked... so I figured might as well churn something out in the meantime.

Having been in a position sortof like yours I would say definitely get SCM3. Then get 65, then get SOTW and Innate camo. Those are the ones i definitely am glad i got those!

I'm with Tuda: SCM 3 then Innate Camo.

After that I'd get Exodus.

As for SotW, if you go for it, go for it when you are headed for SotW and MGB. At 64 and 65, if you go raiding at all, whether open or not, a druid with SotW 1 will be asked to use their MGB for group 9s. It is pretty much expected that the SotW rot will be all SotW 3.

my 2 cents
get 65 first then scm then IC
the extra mana hp lowered resits etc worth the exp

I disagree about SotW1 vs 3.
In a raid situation it'll be used for the hp regen, nothing else. Level 1 gives 200/tick. Level 3 only increases that to 250/tick.

Agreed.
