New Player questions :)

Also worth mentioning, get the enchants from the disc priest build on twinkdb and don't forget to stack gems int/vers, int/haste, int/stam, +3 int all in the bank would be best.

Trinkets are Ghost Iron Dragonling and Inherited Insignia of the Alliance

with moonglade 2 set being so nice, and leaving no room for CoF, using both Fist of Stone and Price of Progress is good to guarantee mana supply.

Okay, will keep that in mind. Time to plan what and where to farm!

Thats a good hint, nice to have it for weapon swapping I guess, when getting lower on mana. Will farm it!

Raven-Heart Headdress + Moonglade Shoulders OR Moonglade Cowl + Ravenwing Pauldrons

Why is it that everyone is playing with Moonglade Shoulders and no one suggests Mantle of Perenolde ? I rather have the 5 extra secondaries than one main stats.
I guess it's not the set bonus either, as EVERY balance druid in the armory has Moonglade Shoulders

Uff pretty toxic, u sure got the essence of my post.

It's just a joke, sorry you found it offensive. That's what came to my mind when I read your post mentioning hunters and then checked your (unfinished) char. HPal is super strong, very tough and well able to 1v1 hunters.
People here pointed you in the right direction, with proper gear your HPal will rock, don't worry about that.

It's hard to deal with twink hunters, especially when you are a melee class. Best thing to do is be aware of your positioning. Don't dive hard into the enemy team and expect your team to followup and healers to keep topping you off, learn to kite and reposition.

Yeah, nothing like being a melee in a Hunter rich environment

For a non-stealth class, I’d strongly suggest Precious Bloodthorn Loop. It’s a 5min get outta there button. Just need to watch them Huntard flares when they see u disappear.

1 int socket bonus, set bonus and 5 vers. Simply better stats. Crit is pretty much wasted on resto so it doesn't matter.

Versa haste, with lots of int is best imo. Mine has around 26-7 versa, around 20% haste and full +3 int gems. You can also go for +2int/+2vers or +2int/+2haste gems if you're into secondaries.

Without access to twink items on AH these will perform almost as good and difference will be barely noticeable:

Raven-Heart Headdress + Moonglade Shoulders OR Moonglade Cowl + Ravenwing Pauldrons
Moonglade Robe
Sea Dog's Cuffs (farm it until it procs a socket)
Starlight Gauntlets
Highlander's Lizardhide Girdle / Mindfire Waistband (legacy loot as it's cloth armor)
Moonchild Leggings
Slippers of Serenity (legacy loot as it's cloth armor)

Armsmaster's Sealed Locket / any versa/haste neck on twinkdb if you want some haste as well
Seal of the Regal Loa (farm it until it procs a socket) / Cutwater-Captain's Sapphire Ring (can proc a socket, 1 time drop) / Glompmaw's Ring (can proc a socket, 1 time drop) / Electrocutioner Lagnut
For rings, farm the ring from atal dazar with socket and try the 2 rares hoping for a socket proc. If they don't proc, it's fine just use them without the socket or farm Lagnut if you want more vers.

Yal's Leafwrap Cloak - daily drop, can proc a socket. Just kill the rare every day until you get a socket.

For main hand weapon, check the caster section on twinkdb. There are a few quest items that can proc and upgrade to blue/purple. Those would be best. (Scepter of the Winterfin, https://www.wowhead.com/item=38135&ilvl=24, Tethis' Skull) Otherwise get a blue/purple dungeon drop. (https://www.wowhead.com/item=20647&ilvl=25, https://www.wowhead.com/item=17780&ilvl=26)
https://www.wowhead.com/item=17943/fist-of-stone?ilvl=25 is also nice if you have mana issues.
Offhand - Try the rare for https://www.wowhead.com/item=160447?ilvl=25. If you want you can also farm https://www.wowhead.com/item=158322&ilvl=25 with socket or farm chests in Wetlands for a https://www.wowhead.com/item=13031?ilvl=27

Be sure to check the items on twinkdb as they're all obtainable and I could've missed some.

I should add a f2p resto build on there tbh.

Do you by any chance have such an amazing list for frost DK, too? I have been using some armory ppl for pure F2P and checked the unholy guide on twinkdb, but somehow its confusing / not feeling right since I dont know which armorys are good. I would just love to see the comparison and what I would need to farm (maybe even together with my druid since on different accounts) to get him up to speed, if I am sick of healing.

Ofc I understand if u dont have time to do that, maybe u could suggest me a good frost DK armory in that case, as orientation.

Thank you very much for all ur help!!

I can't really tell. Better look for Odi and Thana on the armory.

 

[Opal]

I will do so, thank you!

You, along with everybody else in America and Europe, doesn't know how to play a restoration druid. As Supâcow I just drop into bear form with my HoTs rolling and absorb Aimed Shots and Chaos Bolts, Soul Fire with ease. The problem here is you. You don't know what the hell you're doing with a resto druid. Neither does any other player in this bracket on the face of this earth, except me. I still have yet to find another resto druid that even knows or understands how to gear correctly. And when it comes to statistics on charts. As a resto druid, I am always in the top two in every battleground I ever play in damage AND healing. I'm sorry but I'm sick and tired of all you crybabies not wanting to learn to really manipulate a restoration druid. Instead of blaming your lack of skill, you blame the class itself. And while you cry babies are shedding tears. I'm running around in Battle for Gilneas doing 100,000 damage and 93,000 in healing without even noticing.
