I see a lot of whining and moaning here. Make the best of the GAME or go play something else I say. I started my druid the day the first server opened and played him religiously for 3 years. But it got boring due to druids only going down the nerfage road. And if you have been a druid that long you know what I am talking about. But it is a common state of things. Just a fact. Live with it.

With that said I have to say that druids are already viable healers. I have spent 12 straight hours in b2 in Seb with no cleric with only 3 deaths, and none of those deaths would have been avoided if we had had a cleric (stupid wizard was pulling and died twice doing it, and enchanter Tash’d too early and got 4 mobs on her). And the bonus was that I made 2k in cash because there was no cleric sucking up all the loot.

Friends + slower + Druid with Chloroblast (level 55) = no need for cleric in almost any dungeon.

Will a 75% heal make this easier? Somewhat….just won’t need the slower.

Nuff said.

You have obviously not read the countless posts on this very topic in the past 6 months. Please head over the the Class Balance Forum to inform yourself.

Congrats Stewwy.

After this aptch you can now go hold that same camp as a healer and get half the xp you did before.


Still happy?

Yes, but that's Seb. Now take your group to CT, umbral, or most any good camp on luclin -- where many of us spend the majority of our time. Suddenly you are required to have a cleric on hand. Even a 2-boxed one is more efficient than a battle-hardened world weary hierophant. Try keeping a 6k+ hp tank alive by yourself under such circumstances sometime.

No need to be rude.

I have read them....just never commented. So I comment here. My privelege(sp).

WOW! I am not commenting on these boards any more. Obviously all the complainers know alot more than I do, so I will be quiet.

Stewwy, you have hit on why Shaman are viable healers since you mentioned a Slower. I assume you mean a Enc since Enc and druid Slow and Heal are needed to compare with the Shaman self slow and heal. Also that is not viable at higher levels because shaman get better HoT to go with their slows at higher levels but druids don't.

Stewwy, I am sick of the whining as well. Everyone thinks that because one class gets an enhancement, that they should. I disagree, that is my opinion, whiners will flame me for it, I don't care.

Agree with you Stewwy. If you don't fit with the druid party line here then it feels like being quiet is the way to go but chime in too. There are those who feel the same.

Hmmm, so you come here, call people whiners and disagree with their views, but if they disagree with your views than they are shunning you? I guess you expect to post something and have everyone say 'damn, you are right' no matter what they really think? Grow the hell up.

Post in the Rants section, and feathers all ruffled.

Hmmm.

Most General sections of other boards are far more harsh than the Grove Rant section.

Concluding a post that starts a thread with 'nuff said' sets you up for a little heat, anyways. Obviously enough was not said.

Couldn't have said it better, so I'll just /nod in agreement.
