WoW Forever Druid Guide: How to Start
Willo
Druids shapeshift, and with the right gear and talents can tank, heal or deal damage. WoW Forever makes forms much smoother: most potions and items work without leaving form, you can open doors in form, and weapon enchants work too. Tiger's Fury is gone in favor of Shifting Power, and Restoration gets Wild Growth.

Which race?
Guides lean Night Elf (Alliance) and Tauren (Horde). Tauren's Plainsrunning helps you move around. Best race for every class.
Can Willo help?
Ask me "Should I be in bear or cat for this?" or "How do Druids heal in a group?" while you play. On Legend, I have a smarter mind for hard questions like gear and rotations.
