I can live without the DOT in restoration... i really wish they hadnt touched restoration even though its an improvement overall... i loved my 31 points in restoration and now i hv a problem again lol. The new auras will only work for parties just like the auras from paladins... hmmm... good point stang made about wanting druids in with moonkin and leader of the pack... but there's maybe not more than 4-6 druids per raid and i'd say at least half of them should be specced with innervate for comfort reasons. As for druid sets... these feral buffs are impressive... also a hint that apart from our pvp set, we wont be getting a feral set anytime soon... Btw... there's only info out about the talent changes? Anything else druid related like maybe new models for our forms or something... epic druid quest *grin*

LOL... uncontrolled anal leakage... that sounds obscene hahaha!

That's nice to hear... but still... restoration remains the most beneficial tree for a guild raid. The shaman/pally classes which are more balanced are often restoration/holy specced for their guild raids. Obviously, u hv a few other specs but if u want a guaranteed spot and be more favourable... u hv to sacrifice and spec in a way to benefit the guild. However... druids can now fill each of their roles (caster, healer, feral) so much better than before despite our specialisation just like a shadow priest still is able to heal really well. Hving thought a lot about it... how the moonkin form looks like will determine wat spec i go for lol!! Hurricane will be a learnable spell (finally ... we get AOE!!!) apparently hurricane will also become targetable although i cant confirm that. Although feral looks sweet... my "feral" gear is more of a hybrid gear with some +int in it... no way am i gonna hunt DM all over again for better feral gear lol. Most probably 31 restoration since i'm used to healing and i love NS, iMOTW, innervate and furor then the other 20 to get as many goodies as i can get lol.

Moonkin form? Jesus... i'm hoping that the name is the only thing related to a moonkin... i'll die if we actually look like a friggin moonkin. The balance buffs are pretty damn nice... although i kinda liked the rumoured buffs more for some reason. However... hurricane as a targetable spell and able to be learned... priceless! I really wished they hadnt touched the restoration tree... now we hv to make certain choices if we go 31-only in restoration whereas back then you could get most of the important stuff. The feral tree has been buffed to become a viable option... especially for pvp. I'm so confused now... i hv no idea which tree to go.. even though i suspect guilds will still require druids to go 31 rest of high-end raiding =/.

This is what I really hate about PUGs. I've had many dodgy experiences too... a couple of them: On one of my scholo runs while I was hunting for my WH cowl... we had 2 hunters who probably recently ding'd 60 as they were mostly in greens and new to scholo... both of them had used their RTUs (they didnt know much and they were just there for better gear). So... we're getting close to gandling and out of the blue a dwarven hand cannon drops... naturally... we all went berserk... and in most organised PUGs i've been in, MLs hv always said that if a BOE epic drops... its RTS, period. Which i agree with. This scenario... the hunters were probably speechless with awe and rolled immediately but our ML said 'no' their RTU had been used up. So me and another druid said that it should be RTS... but no... out MT says: "I could use it"... and uses his RTU... needless to say he gets the loot. All of us were just stunned. I told them off cos no offence... but a warrior doesnt make the most outta it... but yeah... i was ignored and no one cared... both hunters had left by then... feeling they had been cheated. I told the warrior to equip it... he said later as he had no bullets and continued to use his bow. Oh whoops... did i say... our ML and MT were from the same guild? I doubt he equipped it... they both logged after the run and i hvnt seen them since... definitely a ninja case though. However... to your situation... its so easily solved for someone who could potentially get 2-3 items in a an instance. We had a priest in baron... some devout boe droppped which he rtu'd. Then later after killin rivendare he got his devout leggings as well by buying it for 5g. But i agree... anything thats boe and worth something nice on the AH should be RTS. I make an exception for tier0 set items though... seems to be the norm. Standard loot rules are just a guideline... a good ML will always make his rules clear apart from the usual 1 rtu per person, class priority etc etc. by adding that boes worth more than a certain amount will be rts'd or skinner who skins the beast gets +20 to his roll etc. well before the raid so everyone knows what they're getting into.
