This probably doesn't count since I am only level 61 but here goes (oh yeah I am a moonkin):

Rogues: In 1 on 1 a rogue can't very well kill me. Usually they stealth hit me first, and I return by jumping to keep them in front of me while I cast moonfire and swarm (instant casts). Next I land entangling roots and back out of range then pop either rejuvenation or regrowth then switch back to moonkin. Usually they are out of roots by now but have lost 1/3+ of their health. Ill cast starfire and let them hit me while casting, as when it hits they will either die or be close to it. Finish with a quick moonfire while staying out of range.

Hunters: If you see them coming for you quickly target their pet and hibernate it. Since they are already upon you open with moonfire + swarm then starfire as fast as you can possibly twice. Try to pop a regrowth before the pet wakes up, switch back to moonkin and reapply moonfire and swarm, then try to finish him off with starfire or wrath.

If you can't see the hunter or their are multiples, you are pretty much screwed (Alterac Valley).

If i get the jump on an SL/SL lock and outgear him and he sucks, then MAYBE I have a chance :P

I've been improving my pvp gear quite a bit over time, so now they are not so much of a problem, but an equally geared SL/SL lock will beat me 7/10 times even if I get the jump on him. If he cathes me in the open, i go hit something else until he's done killing me. No point trying to hurt him, since he heals faster than I can dps.

Edit: Just realised you may have meant how druids do against rogues, warriors and hunters.

Two words: Tasty snack!

I can usually take out a warrior and a rogue at the same time, and I actively seek out and prey on hunters whenever i see one. Hunters take some time to kill, but against my 20k hp and 25k armor in pvp gear, there's not really anything they can do to me.

Equal-geared non-dwarf hunters and warriors are not a big problem as a 68 feral, though if a good rogue can stunlock me in cat form (no barkskin) then gg. Otherwise, rogues arent that bad either. But SL/SL locks, man, they ruin my day.....

As a hunter, with a druid, ill post my advice. How to beat a hunter as a druid: keep him moving, as stated, if your a feral druid, stay in bear form, it a lot of hp to burn through, especially if your just using arcane shot. (thats why u keep him on the move) Druids arent usually problems for me, but it really pisses me off how much i have to actually think to beat them, and how long it takes lol.

Rogues: On my druid(resto) i get my *** handed to me by rogues, but my pvp gear sucks. (20 resil anyone lol) My healer on my 2v2 with my warrior can hold up to even the best rogues, i dont know how he does, it, but they usually kill themselves from thorns aura.

Locks: Well im not sure what SL/SL means, because i dont have a lock, but as resto they dont really scare me, i just heal through there dots, and dispel there curses.

Again, i really just posted this for the hunter portion, and some of you guys with druid mains may have different views.

The great thing about druids is depending on spec, we really have no natural enemies, meaning there is a spec to beat every class combo.

So to the OP, druids can hold up to just about anyone.

I can beat SL/SL warlocks as a feral but there really isn't any room for mistakes. Open with pounce, dps him until he try's to fear or deathcoil. If he trys to fear, maim him and regen energy then burst him as hard as you can, after which they'll death coil. With death coil they usually fear you afterwards, so trinket out of fear then go bear form, wait till they start casting a spell, then feral charge to interupt it. Chain the lockout/immobilize with bash, then either cyclone and throw up some hots or switch straight to cat. By now maim cooldown is up so get a combo point and don't use up all your energy. Wait for another attempt to fear then interupt with maim, using the time to regen energy and laying down another burst. That is usually enough to kill a SL/SL lock with roughly equal gear for me, but if I miss a crucial interupt then they will have a big opening to drain my life and it's usually GG ater that.
