Level 18-19: Feral Swiftness - 4% Dodge Effects All Forms Now
Level 20-21: Sharpened Claws - 6% Crit For 2 Talent Points Is VALUE
Level 22-23: Savage Fury - Combined With Feral Instinct, Swipe Is Already Strong
Level 24: Feral Charge - You Can Cat Leap From Stealth & Open With Ravage at lvl 32!
Level 25: Primal Bite - Equivalent To Mangle From Other WoW Expansions
Level 26-27: Blood Frenzy - Swipe Fully Online
Level 28-29: Predatory Strikes - +14 AP at this level. We'll Fill 3/3 at level 40 for +60 AP

Level 31-35: Genesis- Regrowth Rejuvenation Rake & Rip All Benefit Here
Level 36-37: Nature's Majesty - 4% Crit For Melee AND Heals

Level 40: Predatory Strikes
Level 41-45: Furor
Level 46-48: Natural Shapeshifter - Feral Is Now Fully Online

The Last 12 Points You Need To Decide If You Want Berserk For the last 3 levels or Not. If no, continue 5/5 Naturalist.

Level 49-50: Natural Instinct - Still Better Value Than Heart of The Wild
Level 51: Heart of the Wild
Level 52-56: Rend and Tear
Level 57: Berserk - Difficult to get maximum value every 3 minutes which is why its low priority
Level 58-59: Heart of the Wild

Gameplay & Rotation

This playstyle is focused on NEVER drinking. We leverage our access to all 4 resource types. Rage Energy Health & Mana. Thorns converts your health into damage. Bear Form mitigates damage long enough for our mana to restore and has buffed abilities like Frenzied Regeneration and Barkskin. There is a window to use Healing Touch Regrowth Rejuvenation after combat and have just enough mana to go back into form. Cat Form is our single target burst form with strong openers and finishers from Ravage and Ferocious Bite. Combine all of this with Feral Swiftness and Druid is one of the premier leveling classes for speed solo 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.
