Hello everyone,

In all of my time through wow I have always enjoyed the druid class and have even played them through most of my RPG gaming history <Baldurs Gate +++, Diablo, etc.> I first and foremost enjoy the moonkin class and its survivability in PVE along with all the "jack of all trades" tricks we have I feel confident in a PVP and Raid atmousphere. At times lately I feel like I am loosing out quite badly to the Kitty DPS'ers in my raid guild <formerly pvp guild turned raiders "Tang"> and this has inspired me to make a shout out here <which is the haunt I first came to adore since trying to figure out more about my preferred class> for advice and hopefully some good pieces of discussion.

Me - http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Azuremyst&cn=Duedain

Since I found out that I was ******** myself in to building a potentially broken set <under HIT cap> I bought Maghias Misguided Quill first with my Frost Emblems. That wicked head piece will have to wait!

I built macros in under a few of my spell casts that are simple but really help eliminate the button cooldown when trying to set off trinkets and for me, engineering tinkering such as speed gloves w 1 min CD.
/castsequence
/use Malfurions Gloves of Triumph <which have tinker speed>
/cast Starfall

<since Starfall and haste gloves both have CD of 1 min since I have glyphed they both are ready to proc at the same time = WIN>

I basically uise the same formula and link my two trinks which have a 2 Min CD and pair them with Wrath and Starfire, my two main casts. I also turn off the interface notifications for spells not being ready so it doesn't constantly pop up when casting wrath, and the trink isn't ready.

As far as I am aware every trink starts an internal 30 second cooldown before you can use another trink but I am not sure if haste rating affects this?>>>>

I follow Arex's words as close as possible but I find my rotation in a raid scenario as
Treants>Faery Fire>Starfall>Moonfire>InsectS>wrath until Starfire procs,starfall until Wrath procs and then tend to DoT's and Starfall depending on time span.
Any words of advice would be great since I am still laggin a bit behind the rest of the guild, which are all pretty elitist, so yeah.... comment!

Time to finish up the ribs..... mmmm, ribs.
Yay Druid powa

You can't change gear in combat.

Just use the gloves all the time.

Also where is the spell not ready thing, ***** annoying.

/use <glove name> would be the way to activate the engineering trinket.

I have tinkered my current pair of gloves so there is no need to switch anything during combat.

@Horsemouth - I will double check locale for removing the alerts.

"/use 10" will use your current gloves just like "/use 13" and "/use 14" will activate your trinkets. Makes it easier if you are trying to fit it into a longer macro.

And has the added benefit of working with any item you put in that slot, so you don't have to worry about editing macros if you get a new piece of loot.
