I started playing resto druid.... if i don't die we always win.... but whenever they train me i die.... (645ilvl)

get me to trinket,then they swap me and i usually die.... not sure if it's my gear or of i suck or both lol.... but as i said earlier, if they don't train me, we always win



2.1k exp player so i'm not a complete nub... but yah just wondering if you guys think it's my gear or playstyle.... Should probably avoid cc better



I thought of a strat i need to perfect..... use iron bark when i think they're going to swap, before they do, or go bear form.... idk



(This is for 3v3 btw, 2v2 i never die)

At 2.1k xp I am sure your kiting & teamwork needs help.

well, kiting wise i'm fine... but as i said, they get me to trinket, then swap me, and i die before stun is off.... (having no trinket).... so yah idk

but yah i'm fine kiting atleast in 2v2 anyway

i think another huge problem i have, is that i play to aggressively, I always try to get mass cc, instead of playing defensive

and i get greedy with cd's so :/

You shouldn't ever really die unless they have cd's going or dampening gets high - kite their cds and have your team peal. Using displacer beast at the right time is big - obv not using it before a dk death grips etc etc. I also like glyph of barkskin making you immune to interupts for 5 seconds to bait out kicks - you'd be surprised how many people dont pay attention.

Depends what your CR is and how geared your team is. Also, if you are getting tunneled you have to be able to make the judgement call as to when you can get a cyclone off - I feel like druids are really squishy. I've only played up to 1700 mmr on my rdruid but it 100% comes down to kiting and peals.

Then there are the basics - are you juking? Not like once per match, or only when your team has a kill, but are you juking mid game to buy time to get clones etc off? What form do you spend your time in when they are training you? What comp are you running and what comps give you the biggest trouble?

How do you do against other druid healers? Can you team kill them as easily as you get killed?

yah i gues i'll start using tha tglyph for comps that train me, good ide,a ty

and yah i juke

and umm... for now I'm only running TSG, KFC, Thug


once i get better with rdruid, i'll start running GOD comp, WMD, and RMD

you really need to pre-bear form swaps, usually like tsg or combat rmd its usually quite noticeable when they are going to swap to you

bearform is your strongest defensive ability

mk yah, i'll have to practice that, ty

Usually resto druids get forced to tree form then switch off until its over. Bear form before the hard switch like comm said is the best counter. But I dont know much.

PS- If your buffs arent being purged then it makes it easier to survive, just a tip.

depending on how you use your displacement beast and trinket, you shouldn't die so quick.
