Until yesterday I had virtually zero group experience. I have run solo since I started playing again over the summer and my 74 Druid has never stepped foot in a dungeon. Yesterday I had a two-fold awakening. I decided to give the dungeon finder a shot on my boomkin (main spec) and found a group fairly quickly. Teleported to the dungeon and came to find out that the paladin tank had accidentally listed himself as healer... Did we turn back? Did we trudge on without a healer? Hell no... I did what any self-respecting suicidal Druid in my situation would do... I switched over to my never-been-touched resto spec and we tore sh*t up. Not only did I realize that dungeons are badass, but I LOVE resto :) good daye

Yay resto! Gratz on healing it all, that must have been a rush!

If you're enjoying it dive right in! I leveled from 73-80 almost entirely by healing dungeons. It leaves lots of quests to do for coin once you ding 80. ;-D

It is funny how almost everyone starts playing this game as a solo game (unless you start with a friend) then we all have a similar revelation at some stage and realise how much fun instances can be. Joining a guild and talking on vent while doing a dungeon just takes it up a notch as well.

I remember the good old days when PuGs would often jump on someone's guild vent and chat during the run. These days they just say "why? it's only a heroic". Oh well - guild runs FTW.

I need to stop typing right when I wake up... I can't believe I spelled the topic title wrong. Fail. Anyway, yes, as someone who specialized only in melee classes in FFXI for years, it surprises me that I like the caster roles so much more in WoW than the DD roles.

Smiley: lol I only read this thread because I noticed the title had been corrected. Not to say I was too elitist to read it, it just intrigued me that someone went and changed the title.

Boomkin/Resto is a great combo, it's well worth your time to learn both play styles! I went 60-70 that way and loved it.

Yeah when I LFD I check the box for both. Most of the time I get brought in as a resto, but I love boomkin in groups too. I was planning on switching back to feral/resto when I hit 80, but now there is no way I will go back to it.
