Quote:I'm glad to find another druid who's willing to use daggers. The fast swing speed accomodates the cast-cast-whack-whack-cast-cast rhythm of the solo Balance druid better than a slower staff or mace.
I haven't spent much time using daggers. Honestly it hadn't occured to me that the Omen would proc more often if I were swinging more often. Silly me.
Quote:One other talent I've found useful is Nature's Reach. It's a lot safer to pull if you've got a point or two there, especially if you're working mobs above your level.
I don't know how I'd function without Nature's Reach. I'd say this is a must. I'd add that's it's much safer to pull with only Faerie Fire. It generates a lot less aggro than Moonfire or Starfire, making single pulls much more common.
Quote:What do you think of the higher pre-Hurricane Balance talents like Moonfury and Vengeance? Are they boosting your Starfire and Moonfire by an appreciable margin?

I see critiical hits on my Starfire of 900-1000 pretty regularly - so I'm happy with the points I have here. If I were to respec right now I'd put my five initial points into a faster Wrath. The last time I looked I could get more DPS from a spammed 1.5 sec cast time Wrath than what I'm getting with the Starfire. This doesn't take critical hits into account, but I'd like to try it in-game and see what I thought of the damage.
