    Default Advice on spell rotation for 4x druids.

    Freshly 80 and playing on a pvp server so im not a complete noober when it comes to killing people of the opposite faction. However I am completely green when it comes to battlegrounds and arena's.

    Currently my world pvp strat is to just spam my boss killing button. It casts Insect swarm, Moonfire, Starfire, wrath, starfire, wrath. 95% of the people I come accross cannot live past moonfire w/o heals or dispelling it and I have yet to have anyone survive more than a tick past the first starfire if they acutaly stay put long enough for me to get it off. Sometimes I swarm them with treants. In battlegrounds or what not I dont reliably ever seem to have enough time to get a starfire off unless im in an opportunity to cast from afar on someone who is already engaged. I have not parsed out the ammount of damage that 4x glyped moonfire and insect swarm do, but it is easily in the 16k-20k range as ive killed people on their mounts with nothing more than thoes two spells and watched them fall from the sky.

    Now im still in the stage of WTF pwn'ing bbq is going on spamming the wrong button and getting face rolled at times, but that will change. Now to set my line of thinking a bit, I saw a PvP video of a paladin and a druid doing WSG. The paladin just decimated everyone and the druid did nothing more than hug his ass, heal and cast root. It was the most impressive vid of steamrolling people I have seen. It was a full 15min or so of uncut ass whooping, Not these cut and paste super crit strings that prolly took a week of filming to get that was put to music sung by people who are angry at their dad.

    In my short trips recently to the AV battleground, Healing has been a huge weak point for me, when I remember to do it, I seem invincable, when I forget... well im waiting out the 30s timer for a rez. Also when I join a BG, my team is thrown all over in the groups and I honesly have no way to monitor their hp's, or do a focused heal if one is saying 'druid needs food badly'. So here is my current idea for battlegrounds, I doubt it will work for arenas. Go deep restoration to get wild growth. Then its a simple cast sequence on each of my 4 druids that are offset by one spell. Moonfire, Wrath, Natures Grasp, and Wildgrowth.

    ng,mo,wr,wg
    wr,wg,ng,mo
    wg,ng,mo,wr
    mo,wr,wg,ng

    This will constantly spam heals, dps, and roots on whatever I have targeted, a very easy spam button that does it all. In my head this would seem to be very killer on a single target, even many targets as you rotate through them the wild growth will keep you alive. However it doesnt seem to have any real burst insta gib capabilities. Fear bombs will suck till I get pvp trinkets but they have always sucked.

    I would realy like to get a good burst 'I win' button but I dont see that happening with druids. I could do the same type of rotation in deep ballance and just have a self HOT on each druid instead of an aoe hot. That would prolly be better, but I would have to maualy do heals on my tank leader.

    Well I would like some input and sugestions, Right now im looking for about 1-3 different macros to set up. I am not worried about one off situations against certain classes yet till I get the basics down, just the sequences that are universaly good to go. Thank you.

    Default

    i wouldnt bother with starfire at all, moonfire wrath insect swarm wrath moonfire moonfire wrath, should be enough to kill anyone. if you spec into typhoon, that throws healers off quite a bit, use it as a finisher or mid sequence interrupt

    i would use roots too, ie have one druid cast roots while the other casts wrath in the first dps cycle, that way the baddies cant run away as easily
