I was glad to see a mage speak up after listening to dumbf-ck warlocks
and rogues comment on something they know nothing about.

While as a Balance Druid, I would defer to a mage who really wanted these, I
doubt any Mage would. They are of little benefit.

To the idiot that made the statement about Druids having 1 or 2 Arcane spells,
so it must be for a Mage... Druids have 2 schools of Magic. Arcane and Nature.
Thier most powerful spell, Starfire, is a 3.5 second cast arcane spell ( not
including talent points) therefore recieves 100% of the +dmg. Moonfire is
nstant cast and recieves less. In moonkin, there are only 4 offensive spells.
Wrath, Starfire, Moonfire, & Hurricane (insect swarm is a resto spec pre-TBC,
and not castable in Moonkin). They are evenly divided between arcane and nature.

The other piece of info that apparently you pin-headed, follow the crowd, "but
every guild does this", pigeon-hole, stereotypical, lemmings bark about is cloth
vs Leather. Why did moonkin form get the 360% armor bonus that Dire bear form
gets? For tanking? No... because I can take a piece of cloth armor like this
and when I wear it in moonkin form, it more than triples in AC value. It becomes
the equivilent of leather. Would I rather wear leather? Of course. Those of us
hat play the class and the spec realize Blizzard has always tried to balance
verything. Balance druids were never intended to wear leather. They were
upposed to wear cloth, thus the absence of any significant amount of balance
eather in the game. That is changing in TBC. I suspect its because they
ealized most of these pin head guilds didn't get it, and gave in.

Yes I Raid endgame as a balance druid in Moonkin form. Roll a hybrid, and in
the meantime STFU!
