Ok so i have a level 49 twink mage, frost spec. Recently feral druids have infested the 40-49 bttleground stage & am really stuggleing with tactics when it comes to killing one...
If i frost nova they instantly shapeshift &
break out of it... Any chill effect they instantly shapeshift & break out of it... They break through my ice barrier quicker than a rogue can when in cat form... If i blink then they just leap forward the same distance i just blinked also dazeing me for a few seconds... They have some kinda of healing abilitie whilst in cat form also.
Basicly they hit just as hard if not harder than a rogue but with the added bonos that they are praticly immune to snares & chill effect or anything that holds them inplace,they can leap forward a distance comparable to a blink or charge & they can heal... How the hell do i kill em from a frost mage point of view??!!? lol
Blizz plz nerf!some fights need special atention for a mage to win. killing a druid that is probably feral will not be easy( not even at 49 bracket where frost mages rullzzzzzz) the main strategy for wining against a druid is building damage not bursting like u do against other classes. keep in mind that he must waste time to shapeshift and doing so will lose some bonuses(eg:rage)and mana if u are only kiting from him jiting him with some instant cast spells u can get him easy at 45%% hp without loosing more than 10%% of your life due to blink ice shield etc. when they see they get their asses kicked many druids will shapeshift to normal form and try to heal. use cs than nuke him fast. bye bye druid. or if u find hard to do this
just run he cant even hope to catch u at 49:P let your teammates to engage him and just nukeAlthough, speaking as a Druid, do you know how much fun it is to have someone blow their Counterspell cooldown on your
Hearthstone?
I can't really offer you much of a vantage point on Druids vs. Mages, because 1)I'm Resto, I sit back and let the Rogues and Warriors kill the Mages, and 2)I barely see Mages anymore.
