Aquarius-belt for druids

[borishilton]

Just to info ppl cause i have not seen this mentioned often. For druids there is an excellent belt available from the aqautic-form quest: Aquarius-belt

I guess it'd be decent for resto...if you are trying to get hit capped



sucks for FC.

Not too bad for PvE FC I guess. Hit is needed for agro

PvE FlagCarrier ? ... "tank" maybe?

I mean .. I guess if go OOC you can switch, pop the CD, and switch back? =/



I think... if you have mixology it buffs how much it heals you.. Its on the same CD as pots?

Firstly you dont need to be hit capped for resto, maybe balance.



Its a great belt, but girdle of the blindwatcher is better with the stamina and needed manapool for a druid. Switch has a cd but its not that long.

OFc..The poster before me said FC so I automatically wrote the same since tank and FC has similar roles.

I use it on my FC druid and it has saved my life more than once. The heal does not share a cooldown with any other items, so popping several heals at once is very helpful. I can pop the belt, lifeblood, potion, and rejuvenation all in a row.



The cooldown on the ability is short enough that you get 2-3 uses out of it in each of the now-20 minute WSG matches, and you can always switch it out for Blindwatcher, Deviate Scale, or whatever else if you need to.

Usually when I post, I am referring to guild v guild premading, so I, personally, don't see the loss of hp/mana from GotBW being worth it especially when you have at least 2 healers on defense.



I do agree that druids should get this belt regardless.

I agree with Germs. Hit capped is necessary for arenas..I used to think otherwise but then I would get two shot by quick switches because NG would miss or I would fake cast and get a root off only to have it miss and by then it was too late to get a heal off .. Spidersilk Cape, Lavishly Jeweled, Aquarius Belt caps you and overall its not a bad tradeoff.



I think the only reason you would hit this in a premade is if you had to rush or you did a jump and lost a healer or you simply needed to get to the FR and you got hit by all the DPS at once (mage getting behind/died or whatever or if your healers get torrented.. Then popping a health pot and this = a pretty nice heal.. But then again I dont know how you would get OOC to switch unless you predicted it..
