really lookin for a genearal overview as ive not grouped with many boomkins and really am not sure how they play at all.. are they burst damage, sustained damage, what should i concentrait on what are my main spells gonna be? Are they pretty easy to lvl or what?
We're not really burst damage, as the main damaging spells are Wrath, Starfire, Moonfire and Insect Swarm. Moonfire and Insect Swarm are dots (moonfire is an insta cast damage+dot spell) And in pve/raids you'll usually use Starfire the most, as it's the most mana effective spell (and if talented with it, can stun)
Most people would say 'level as feral then switch later' but as someone who leveled 1-70 as Balance, I say it's perfectly fine to level as balance and enjoyed the ride. you can cast roots in mobs then nuke them to the ground. When we get moonkin form you dont need to root as much, as if you start off firing spells, when they're close to you, you can dot em up and then attack with your weapon, since you get mana back from melee attacks, and Moonkin have 400% armour.
