Thanks for all the feedback so far!
Xandorz, using spammable macros on the druid would be helpful, its my first time around so my macro game isn't at its peak. I'll give that a shot. I thought the warrior druid combo sounded good on paper. It may get easier at higher levels, I only played to about 12.
Nodoze, I have not tried running the druid with a hunter, but it does seem like a hunter would be a good set and forget character - especially since I am familiar with the playstyle. For personal reasons, I'm less excited to play a hunter again, and would rather try new classes but it does sound like a really good combination. I appreciate the insight and I'll keep it in mind. I was avoiding double druid because I would like to have two different classes to play around on separately at endgame - perhaps one for a raiding main, and one for instanced PvP, with the option to break out both together for world pvp/pve shenanigans.
Ye, I think both are probably two of the more interesting choices.
Warrior + Druid = 2 classes, so if he want to play 1 at a time then it is beneficial (tanking with warrior was one of my favorite things, other than pvp in vanilla). I think it would have way more dps also (I remember druid dps was a bit of a joke in vanilla, it was hard to kill them because their healing but they didn't deal much damage either)
Druid + Druid would be a nice ganking team in pvp with the stealth. Hots doesn't stack so wouldn't be much more healing except for when hardcasting.
They also give the option of using double ranged attacks so can stand on ledges and attack people and stuff, and can use 2 dots each.
Good points especially on the Tank side as the Warrior could actually do Fury in an Offensive stance when content allows and put out solid DPS swapping in shield & defensive stance when needed. Likely in either case doing substiantially more DPS than a Druid Tank.
Actually a Druid Cat can do very solid DPS if they farm Manual Crowd Pummelers and leverage increased Energy from Furor talent & Wolfshead Helm due to Shifting forms... Druid can use those moments of shifting to refresh HoTs on the Tank (and self if needed) and go back to DPS.
I think you are right that a Warrior+Cat would be faster than Bear+Cat.
