    One thing to note with that HoT spec you talked about at the end. It synergies well with the 5 piece druid tier 2 bonus "reduce casting time on regrowth by 0.2 seconds". Spam regrowth, get crits, proc natures grace, and boom your casting 1.3 second regrowths. Paladin's flash of light can suck it!

      Not worth wearing the 5 piece because the GCD is 1.5 seconds, having a 1.3 cast doesn't raise your hps any.

    HOTW is the best spec early on in the game and you can off-tank if / when it's required. Moonglow is good later on when you have better stats from gear. The other specs I wouldn't even personally recommend. There's also the flag carrying / PvP spec that wasn't covered in this video, but basically you want Natural Shapeshifter, Feral Charge and Swiftmend.

    Thank you so much for making this video. I love the 12/0/39 and would highly recommend 1/11/39 for pvp healing or even 8/11/31 (especially if you have the 3 or 4 piece pvp set speed bonus) ... This spec makes you feel like your playing a druid in BC and it's pretty sweet. The speed form increase is not to be understated.. 55%travel form (not sure if minor speed to boots stacks with this but that would be 63% insta cast travel form!!!)
    I completely forgot about the hot spec there at the end (quite mana intensive but faster heals : )

      Ya its not too bad really if you start early on even with greens. Also highly recommend item rack or another gear swapping addon if you're going to do this. If you have the bag space you can even build a dps set as well for times when the tank/healer role is already filled. This build lets you basically fill in whatever the group is lacking which is awesome.

    It's really interesting I feel like the HoT-Druid Spec seems to me like it would be the best when geared already. I mean it seems to me like it would make it into an incredibly fast regrowth critmachine. So it will cost a lot of mana if you spam cast regrowth with reduced cast time. With really good gear the heal improvements from gear would make that pretty epic. Unless you run out of mana which is again something that can be fixed or atleast the threat of running out can be reduced with gear and preparation.

  • @gamingshowerthoughts9723
    @gamingshowerthoughts9723 Год назад

    In Moonglow spec you have enough Resto points to get 2/5 Improved Regrowth and its very worth it. Allows/Justifies you to go Super-Saiyan mode when you want to, and spam Max-Rank Regrowth. The ZG trinket is like Super-Saiyan mode too with Healing Touch, but when it's on cooldown you can pay a heavy mana cost to do the same thing with Regrowth. The situation where you will want to do this comes up A LOT.
    Also before classic I felt like moonglow was a lame raidlogger raid spec, and it was HOTW that would be more fun. But ultimately I found it was the opposite; moonglow is by far the best wpvp spec of these 4 reasonably min-maxed raid healer specs. (Only for ganking though; HOTW and Swiftmend are definitely better for Warsong Gultch.)

      Honestly pure HP is simply for raiding. Gear with higher intellect and spirit is all around better for world instances and questing. HP is BiS for resto druid in a raid setting. If you aren't raiding, hold onto the HP gear incase you dont get an upgrade by the time you're doing mc or ony, or for dungeons, but outside of instances use the better intellect and spirit gear

      these resto specs are horrible until endgame. if two druids are going to duo, level both as feral. one can focus on bear form, the other can focus on cat. At 40 when you both get heart of the wild, one can pick up int/spi gear to take advantage of the +20% int buff and go to swiftmend to finish leveling as resto. the other can lean into bear form and go towards omen of clarity to level as a tank.

    TL:DR
    Healing Touch is the overall best spec. (moonglow)
    Regrowth spec is very late game but has better HPS. (Hot druid)
    HotW is the worst but you can tank. (Hybrid)
    Last spec is the tank healing only spec, pretty much. (Swiftmend) Not many high lvl druids play this because natures swiftness already is the "oh shit" button.
