Primary Role

Balance is the caster tree for druids. Talents in this tree focus on improving the ranged damage spells druids have at their disposal; Moonfire, Starfire, and Wrath. Insect Swarm and Force of Nature are available with talents. The key talent in the druid Balance tree is Moonkin form, avalable at level 40 after spending at least 30 talent points in the Balance tree.

This tree works for all areas of gameplay: both PvP and PvE.
