State of druid/priest


Recommended Posts

Soo, i was just wondering how druid and priest feel with the change of known spells.

 

Cause "traditionally" we have divine spellcaster that learn all the spells right away while wizards have to learn them... And that always made sense to me cause the former always had more situational spells (affliction removing, scaling and various healing spells, buffs, debuffs, spells limited to creature types like undead or animals etc).

 

How's the situation now that are the wizards who got more spells? Cause looking at beta videos, a pure druid will have 3 spells per level at lv 7 and on top of that you have to choose between spells and talents, and i cant imagine myself picking a talent over a spell, especially on higher power levels...

 

How do you feel about those classes? They feel restricted or are ok?

 

Edit:oh btw is respeccing implemented on launch this time? Cause that could lessen the problem a bit since you could discard spells you dont want to use anymore, especially the various tiers of healing

Healing spells are no longer tiered.  The level 1 heals upgrade with increasing Power Level.  Similarly, now that the new afflictions/inspirations system unites buffs and debuff removal (i.e., the same spell will either give you an Inspiration or remove a related Affliction), some of the situational spells are folded into each other.  As for talents versus spells, that's going to vary by build.  One factor pushing in favor of Talents is the fact that you only get 2 casts per level per encounter (absent use of an Empower)-- if you're already casting Consecrated Ground and Dire Blessing every fight, maybe a talent would be a better investment than another 3rd-level spell. 

 

Respec is in.
