Drilastrun's Druidic Tips

Hello! Welcome To Drilastrun's Druidic Tips!

Intro

Druids have very many options, and can be great at soloing, and are still viable in a group. Having nukes, DoTs, Buffs, Heals, Damage Shields, Wolf Form, SoW, ports, charms, AoE Lulls, AoE nukes, etc, Druids have a enormous variety of tactics at their disposal. I would also like to mention that this guide is incomplete and was made by a wood elf druid, so some material may not be viable for other races. Now, on to Tactics!

Tactics

First Tactic: Tanking-For Druids, this is the most absolutely ridiculous tactic past level 20 or so. If you play a druid, and use this tactic a lot, stop reading this guide, and go find a warrior guide or whatever. If you are tanking, it should be because your pet is on low health, or someone in your group is on low health, or someone else's pet in your group is on low health. whatever the reason, it should be one of the above.

Places to Tank:

1-5: Newbie zone. for those in Gfay, mail quest is good XP for 1-7.

5-10: Again, mail quest is good XP, probably till about level 7. Blackburrow is also a good choice, keep the gnoll fangs to give to Captain Tillin in Qeynos for absurdly high XP. And for those in Rivervale, try WC or EC, go take orcs.

10-15: Crushbone for Faydwer Druids, Blackburrow is still viable, and so are Commons orcs.

15+: I have no suggestions for this one, as tanking is now a worse option.

Second Tactic: Root Rotting-This is a good tactic, if you don't have any room to kite, this might be an answer. To root rot, cast Grasping Roots on the target, then a DoT. Note: Root Rotting is best pas level 14, as that is when you get stinging swarm. make sure that your root stays on, if it fails, Uh-oh.

Places to Root Rot:

14+ (anywhere)
