Druid Beginner Guide | Overview & Builds for ALL Specs (WoW Shadowlands)

[@gregorycheatham4903]

Man. Your layout and organization covering all important aspects of every spec in Druid was pretty amazing. You did a very good job. Going to check out the other class guides cause this is the first one I saw. I was about to say you should make more for every class. Your video was clear and concise, and I feel like anyone could pick up the class and get going. Again, really good job! Icy veins should pick you up

[@dottzgaming]

Appreciate that alot man, thank you :D

[@martinnejedly9932]

Yoo man, thanks for all these class guides, they are great! I just started with WoW 14 days ago and they really helped me alot to get to know all the basic information about classes - specs. Im still strugglin to choose what class to main, so I think Im going to try them all with class trial

[@dottzgaming]

really glad youve enjoyed them!

[@Ryan-ip1pp]

Pretty much brand new to the game and your guides have helped a lot Thanks!

Nice guide, I just picked up druid with my DF free lvl boost, but I’ve played wow since late tbc. Concise guide (I realise covenant choice, legos, tier etc change thing) good intro. One constructive thing, slow down a little. What you’re saying is really worth listening to, interesting and has a lot worth emphasising for a starter guide. I know boosted etc etc, and KZbin “keep in under whatever minutes”. I just watched twice and tapped back a couple of times. As I said, really good guide, well worth watch. Do you know a source where I can get some macros for using different abilities in different forms, I’ll check out your channel for tier info etc.

[@PwnstarrGaming]

Good stuff man. Been thinking about pulling out my druid this will be a big help

[@dottzgaming]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@WhiteWolfac]

Put together quite nicely.

[@dottzgaming]

Thanks!

Started playing before 1 week and I am playing guardian druid and I just watched ur video and I was doing absolutely the same things the video is amazing really helps and the only thing that I was wrong about were the pvp talents thanks a lot u earned a sub

[@autofigure00]

my main was a warlock, i just made a druid night elf and i am struggling a bit at these low levels (the character is currently a level 27). in combat with more than 2 enemies i either get close to death or I die / run out of mana from spamming self heal spells. I do better in the mage form with single targets it seemsbut as the cat (I chose feral specialization) pretty much after every encounter against a single enemy im down to 3/4 or 1/2 health against 2 enemies in the cat form i do fine though with swipe and thrash but again after each battle im at like 1/2 health. So far I enjoyed warlock and having a little tank buddy much better (but im sure playing in a group makes it much much better to play druid ofc). it had better dps and could tank with the void walker, and generally had good protectiona nd self healing, etc. I feel like im doing something wrong playing the druid but im just doing druid dps things with the feral. idk what else i can change or do differently (this cahracter is only level 27 and this is using the new skill tree for the dragopnflight pre-patch).

[@christianb3883]

is there gonna be a dragonflight Druid build? I haven't played wow since legion and I always love your ESO builds. so I'm sure you've got some wicked build cooking

[@dottzgaming]

Yep I plan to update all the class builds!

[@skoomd4447]

Balance druid rotation is way different if you wanna use a leggo and actually do dps

[@sw4rmify]

Hey! What are your last 2 shapeshifts? The tree of life and something else?

[@chemicalrogue9323]

Hey man nice guide I recently start in WoW and this definitely help my thx BTW can you please tell me what Ui and frames u use they are sick 👍🏼👌🏽

[@zackimus]

What UI addon is that that displays the players combo points underneath the enemy health bar?

[@Sindragosa]

So what's the deal with Travel Form vs mounts? I think that Flight Form and Swift Flight Form are as fast as flying mounts, but is Stag Form as fast as a ground mount? Does it need to be glyphed? I got a lot of contradictory information.

[@dottzgaming]

Stag form is as fast as a ground mount outside of combat, yes, no gylphs required. Inside of combat it's a slight speed boost; mounted speed in combat would be insane lol. But you may notice ground mounts go slightly faster than your travel form, but that's due to a guild perk that increases mount speed slightly (they really need to make it apply to travel form)

[@Sindragosa]

@@dottzgaming Thanks for the quick, concise reply. You answered all my questions!

[@chaeferl]

I’m sure this is a great guide.. But I could barely understand anything. You spoke way waaaay to fast.

[@jamie5mauser]

my daughter is about to start her first character and is convinced she wants gto be a hunter (beast mastery) I want to start a druid to play alongside her, which spec do you recommend? My instinct feels restoration to help heal her? or would guardian be a better partner? thanks

[@sociiial2112]

i had to watch this on .75x speed lmaoo. good video tho!

[@lucianignatescu5345]

Hi! Very very usefull guide for beginners as I am! Any ideas regarding what profesions to learn for a feral druid? Because i have no idea..thanks and keep up the great work you do!

[@Damaardk]

Professions are not related to your class per se however being a druid and having access to bird form where you can just shapeshift instantly instead of mount cast time, bird form will help you a lot in gathering professions like herbalism and mining.

[@TheShatteredone]

I just started and I screwed up my wolf druid Ghostwriter I'm stuck every quest I'm shy to join other people in battle and everytime I try to complete a quest to kill something my guy dies and right now I'm lost and without any armor XD

[@ABeanAndChiliBurrito]

Do you have a worded list of the skills on your skill bar for feral? I'm a newbie and I'm seeing some I don't recognize. Thanks for the help!

[@dottzgaming]

I do have quite a bit of macros on my bars, so that could be what you're seeing! But for a worded rotation there's a link in the description below!

[@vorzaw5751]

Hey man, I’ve been searching far and wide for a UI that looks basically identical to yours. I can’t obtain that dark but default layout with ElvUI. Any chance you have a UI video or a way I can copy your UI?Great content by the way, thanks in advance if you see this!

Made a druid, I got the brown virsion of the skin you have. Are the other colours still obtainable? Or

[@dottzgaming]

Yes!

[@Logicalporkpie]

@@dottzgaming dude! Sorry to be a pain, but do i have to go to chomie and do legion? Or if i just stay on bfa is there still nice druid apperances? When I hit 50 to start SL? Also great video's man. Keep it up :)

[@dottzgaming]

You do have to go to Legion to acquire your weapon yes, you can do that via chromie time or after you hit 50. And yes when you hit 48-50 you can go to shadowlands!

[@Logicalporkpie]

@@dottzgaming fair enough, thankyou :)

[@c0rrupt3dsidd]

I'm returning to wow and I'm surprised at how foreign it feels currently lol

[@mariannejensen349]

I have just returned to wow, after being away for a few years. Back in the day, the feral druid had Mangle, as an ability in the cat-form. But when I returned, I could see it in cat-rotation, but not use it if I wasn't in bear form. Is there something I can do to get Mangle back as an ability in my rotation or is it just out for good and only meant for guardian druids as of today?

[@dottzgaming]

it's a bear form only ability now

[@ZombieRofl]

Way to fast for me dough.

[@ItsSailcat]

Would have liked if you had actually explained talents and your choices, rather than just giving a list to use without any explanation on the other options. For example for Beginners Forces of nature is amazing to improve survivability and leveling speed, but you don't even mention it when going over talents.

[@dottzgaming]

If I spent the time fully explaining each decision these guides would have been incredibly long. You're free to make any changes you want to the talent chocies. These are simply recommendations

[@MrTrev80]

Weirds me out how druid trent form looks like Whoopi Goldberg.
