Exactly the sort of debate I was hoping to have here, Quark! If they feel like it a "real" druid can step in, mine's only 26.
That's a little bit silly. If you had a rogue, 2 warriors and 2 warlocks ready to go, is it fair for them to expect to get the tribute?
Hmmm... I have considered playing my druid more, and this issue is NOT what is stopping me. When my druid was untagged, he couldn't buy a bale of hey in XR without recieving 3-4 guild invites. If you are considering a druid, 5 man groups are almost always looking for a healer, and how hard is it to find a shaman or a pally?

I agree, having a druid as your only source of healing is a bad plan. However, Druid + pally/shammy is just about as good as priest + whatever you want IMHO. I guess the one exception on the horde side would be a 5 man with really bad curses. I can't think of any, but haven't spent much time in Strath/Scholo/DM.

Quote:Nothing you said counteracts the fundamental fact that there is never a reason to have a druid around instead of a priest.
If you ever want to see druids on a semi-consistent basis, they need to be able to res people. Otherwise people will almost always go for the priest instead.
