Season of Discovery Balance Druid DPS Talents and Runes

High level Druid talents grant significant power with Vengeance, Nature's Grace, and Moonfury all being quite strong. Moonkin Form is also an excellent one-pointer, and Improved Starfire is a decent investment, although not the strongest of the bunch.

Moonglow, Improved Mark of the Wild, and Insect Swarm are also taken, to improve your rotation and ability to support your raid.

• Gloves — Sunfire
• Pants — Starsurge
• Chest — Fury of Stormrage
• Waist — Eclipse
• Feet — Dreamstate
• Head — Gale Winds
• Wrist — Elune's Fires
• Back — Starfall
• Ring — Nature Specialization
• Ring — Arcane Specialization

We recommend making Wrath free with Fury of Stormrage, freeing Mana to use Starfire to activate Eclipse's buff. Sunfire and Starsurge are also taken for extra damage.

Eclipse and Dreamstate drastically increase DPS potential and Mana sustain, with great synergy with Nature's Grace.

Finally, Gale Winds is a great area damage option, and single-handedly converts Druid from one of the worst area damage dealers to one of the best, provided enemies stay inside the Hurricane for its full duration. Elune's Fires provides a lot of extra potential duration for your damage over time effects, allowing you to refresh them later or never at all and gain DPS in the process.
