WoW Forever Forever WoW Druid Feral Balance Leveling Guide 1-60

LEVEL WALKTHROUGH

1-10

At level 4 train Moonfire our strongest ability to secure tags while leveling. DO NOT trainRejuvenation for 1 silver. Healing Touch is much more efficient and you want to save all your gold so you can train Thorns at level 6 and buy Walking Stick for 5s 4c. In Forever WoW Wrath Rank 2 doesn't scale well so I skip training this until 8 or 10 when I have enough gold.

Your rotation is Wrath Wrath Moonfire and then assess your mana and either continue spamming Wrath or choose to Auto-Attack the mob and let Thorns kill it. Kill faster attacking mobs like Nightsabers or Prairie Wolves to return to 100% mana Auto-Attacking and letting Thorns do the work.

Weapon Damage effects our DPS in Bear Form and Cat Form in Forever so make sure to train your weapon skills in capital cities!

Druids can learn;

Daggers: (Orgrimmar/Darnassus)
Fist Weapons: (Orgrimmar/Darnassus)
One-Handed Maces: (Thunderbluff/Ironforge)
Two-Handed Maces: (Thunderbluff/Ironforge)
Staves: (Orgrimmar, Thunderbluff/Stormwind, Ironforge)
Polearms: (Undercity/Stormwind)

Level 10-20

At level 10 you can complete your Bear Form quest. In order to avoid drinking between combat you need to fight mobs the same level or lower than you. Remain in the starting zone until 12!

Open with R1 Wrath or Moonfire
Shift Bear Form and keep Demoralizing Roar up 100% of the time
Use Enrage and Maul
Kill 2-3 mobs and cast Healing Touch Rejuvenation
Shift back into Bear Form

At level 16 you get Swipe and level 18 you get Faerie Fire.
Faerie Fire is a free cast in Bear Form. It's a great dps increase and an AWESOME ability to pull from range and remain in combat to maintain your rage.

Levels 20-30

Druid is officially online at level 20 with Cat Form and Feral Swiftness. The rotation is lackluster initially but moving at 30% movement speed makes you the fastest levelers in this range behind hunter!

Once you train Rake at 24 the rotation looks like;
Rake
Claw 3-4 combo points
Rip
Claw
You want to get at least 3/4 bleed ticks or (9 seconds) of uptime from Rip.
Remember to pull with Faerie Fire. This allows you to start the fight with 100 energy!

Bear Form gets Primal Bite at level 25! Go into Bear Form when fighting 2+ mobs. Use Cat Form when single target or while traveling and killing mobs on the run.

Levels 30-40

Cat form gets Ferocious Bite at 32! You still want to bleed high armor mobs such as bears with Rake and Rip. The finishing moves are definitely situational!

Bear Form should still be considered when questing against yellow or green level mobs. Try to get value out of Thorns Demoralizing Roar Primal Bite Swipe

If you're taking too much damage in cat form and can't sustain your mana without drinking, try going into Bear Form.

Levels 40-60
You just unlocked Dire Bear Form which is basically upgrading your leather gear to plate while in Dire Bear Form! The talent tree really comes online for druid 48+

You unlock 5/5 Furor and 3/3 Natural Shapeshifter. This makes druid more reactive to play. You have more mana to alternate forms between kills.

Kill 1-2 mobs in Cat Form
Cast Regrowth Rejuvenation
Kill 2-3 mobs in Dire Bear Form while your energy regenerates to 100 in Cat Form
Cast Regrowth Rejuvenation & Repeat

If you choose to go deep in the feral tree and get Berserk pool your rage to 100 in Dire Bear Form.
Pull 3 mobs and spam Primal Bite every 3 minutes.

You MUST upgrade your weapons in Forever because our weapon DPS now affects our damage output in form. Weapons are no longer just a "stat-stick" like they were in Vanilla.
