My gear is still pretty crappy, but with every new piece I can feel their power grow (mainly because it's more like 5 new pieces).

Fears kill me pretty easily, and with 5x moonkins and shitty gear my guys can be bursted down before I can get a heal off, but I have started to feel my survivability increase and started to see my targets drop. Shamans have so great of defense that they're definitely stronger in PvP, but druids are fun. If I can get someone healing me in BG then I can take over any node with ease if my treants and starfall are up. All it takes is one healer and even with my shitty gear you can overpower anything with that army.
