Equipping for PvP & PvE
Low Level "Feral" gear
General Tips-
- Faerie Fire reduces a target¡¯s armor, making them take more damage. It is a very useful spell if there are melee damage dealers in the party.
- Depending on where you¡¯re fighting, Entangling Roots and Hibernate can be wonderful crowd control.
- If you¡¯re pulling, use Cat Form, Prowl, and Track Humanoids (if you¡¯re fighting humanoids) to be aware of your surroundings. Moonfire can be a good way to pull, but some tanks may have a hard time getting aggro from you occasionally.
- Mark of the Wild is possibly the best buff in the game. Keep it and Thorns on all group members.
- With your different forms, you can take on three different roles in a party easily. If something goes wrong, you can switch roles and save the day.
- If a vital group member dies, you can resurrect them during the battle. It has a 30 minute cooldown, but it can save the group.
- You can remove both curses and poisons from a target. These spells can be very harmful and should usually be cured as soon as possible.
- You regain mana while in a different form. If you start to run low, and there¡¯s a backup player for your role, see if one of your other forms can be useful to the party.
Aggro Management-
- If you¡¯re a healer, try to use your lighter spells as much as possible. They are more mana efficient, and generate less aggro. The Druid has a hard time losing aggro, so try to go slow and steady.
- If needed, change forms and use Cower. While not very reliable against monsters higher level than you, it works well on monsters your level or lower.
- If your party can stand not being healed, another option is to switch to Bear Form and wait for the tank to grab the monsters off you. Bear Form¡¯s increased armor and hit points help out a lot.
- Rejuvenation is wonderful, as you cast it once and it heals over time.
- If you¡¯re a tank, Bear Form has a taunt, and an area taunt. Save Growl for when a monster stops attacking you, as it only works if you are not being attacked.
