don't listen to ferdinand, he's a gimp with gimped gear ;)

just kidding, I'm his guild master :)

Hey, I see you are discussing my agility gear *smiles* I am Ferdinand by the way.

Right now the profile shows my healing gear, which I use when I'm in a group. Still using the rod from SM, it gives +18 int with an enchant, so it's good for pvp or teaming.

Agility makes perfect sense for a druid who wants to solo/grind (regardless of your talent setup), since Cat form is the fastest way to kill a mob (if it's in your level range of course).

Agi does two things for me in cat:

1. Gives me a lot more crits
2. Increases my armor and dodge.

This means I kill mobs as fast as I can, but of course I have to heal up afterwards. The 1.5 seconds (or 0 seconds if NS is up) of Regrowth needed after every second mob is fine by me.

I'm restoration specced for the simple reason that I am one of rather few viable healers in my guild. If I had been a loner I would have gone feral until I did instances so much I needed to be a full healer.

My guild master and most other higher lvl Druids I know play with multiple armor sets for Normal, Cat, and Bear forms. I assume he was wearing his cat armor when he last uploaded. There are even mods that change out all your armor when you change forms.

I would think plays similarly to my Hunter, or a Rogue...focus here is on Agi first and Stam second. Agility enhances AC, melee/ranged damage output, and dodge chance. The character could still TANK in bear form, albiet for a shorter period of time, have the bonus of a higher dodge rate, and still be able to heal and hit groups with uber wicked Mark of the Wild...interesting build!

Hats off for breaking the mold!
