Just curious cause I wanted to tank or heal a normal Ramps/BF to finish a quest for gold and help someone out, but the party lead said I would gimp their XP too much.
I've been feral & resto, and resto isn't something I can give up because of how impacting it is in group pvp, but tanking has become unnecessary now that I have the reps for my dungeons, so I'm thinking of trying balance.
Feral has been my solo world pvp spec to just roam around gathering ores for my engineering, and fighting single enemy players. It is very common to engage in duels over adamantite, fel iron, etc., and as feral, I tend to kill warriors, rogues, mages, hunters, paladins, sometimes shamans, but usually die to warlocks and geared priests.
If I go boomkin, I wonder what will change. I feel like everyone will destroy me. Hunter can viper sting and I think I'd have to drop moonkin form just to dispel it? I picture so much vulnerability to mana burns and pushbacks and essentially losing much out on more ores and consistency compared to being feral. I don't tend to fight boomkins enough to know what they're like yet in 1v1. Have any of you had much success dueling other players as a boomkin?
