Sputnick needs your help - Resto Druid

Sputnick

Made in EU
  • So, as some of you already know, I've been away since forever, and now that I'm back I would like to know what's BiS for my resto druid. So I need help from you current experts on giving me some tips on building up my toon (again).

    I already bought some of the required items (BoA), but there's still some to do. Just throw in your profiles (resto druids), or leave tips below.Thanks. :)

    This is just some options, take em or leave em :)
    Seal of Argas
    Mindthrust Bracer, or if you're into fchanging, Uninsured Bracers
    Merger Boots for crit build
    Woodworking Gloves
    BoA caster cap, I like it cause it has a good mix of haste/crit
    BoA off hand
    Vision Belt from dungeon Satchel
     
    Pretty much what Snack said:
    - Argas instead of lorekeepers ring (gain +3stam, +2int, -4 spirit)
    - Mindthrust (gain +1 int +1 spirit)
    - Boots are fine, but smack boar's speed on them
    - Woodworking gloves are best but theyre gf'd, next best would be serpent gloves (cloth, gain +1int +1stam, lose spirit) or serpentis gloves (leather, gain armor, +2stam, -1int, +24armor). Woodworking are the same stats as serpent gloves but 20 more armor.
    - Satchel haste belt, dont need hit as restodruid anymore and 7int 4haste 2stam > 6crit.
    - heirloom hat + legs, up to you if you want to use cloth or leather. Basically it's just haste (cloth) vs spirit + armor (leather). IMO get +188mana on chest and change to loom hat.

    Now enchants, these are where you get to customize your character a bit more and so far I don't think there's really a 100% cookiecutter way to enchant your toon the best way, but some of the enchant choices are pretty no-brainer so I'll list 'em here.

    - Sapphire spellthread to legs (+22stam, +38sp)
    - Greater Inscription of Discipline to shoulders (+14sp, +8crit). For this one you need to farm aldors rep to exalted, it's not that hard but takes a little bit of effort. If you're too lazy to do any rep farming, the next best chant that doesn't require anything but a bit of gold is Greater Crane Wing Inscription (+8int, +4crit)
    - Your cloak chant is the best one still imo, if you want to sacrifice the resist for other stats then you could get haste, int, crit, armor, pvp power or stam on cloak but I don't think it's worth it.
    - Glove and bracer enchants are fine, up to you what kind of a healing build you want to make. Haste is a viable option imo, crit is pretty lackluster with regrowth having +60% crit passively. If you do well with SP chants, then keep them. If you're curious about stacking haste, get another pair of bracers + gloves and try it :) +24stam on gloves and +15stam on bracers are an option too I guess.
    - Weapon chant up to you again. +22 int is fine, 30sp is good too. Windsong I've liked a lot so far, procs a lot and keeps your haste + crit up high most of the time. Colossus is ok but doesn't really enhance your healing abilities. Power torrent is good but 45sec ICD makes it only viable if you switch to another weapon whenever it's on CD. Jade spirit apparently has no ICD so I think it can be up pretty often and 62int aint bad, but I haven't tried it myself so won't say if it's the best one or not. Experiment with diff chants and you'll find the best choice for yourself ;)

    Get skinning (+9 crit rating) or mining (+7stam) instead of engineering, I heard bomb cast times are terribly long as of 5.4 :(

    My druid's in the sig if you wanna check it out, and sorry for the terribly long post again :p
     
    Thank you both for the insights. Will have to make a 360º on my druid.
     
    Can we know if you gonna faction change in order to get some items or will you stay alliance forever ?

    I will eventually, but not for now. I need the double ring, and some other items that are H exclusive.
