Big Bears

[HastyPudding]

Can't stand it. Bear druid was alright in heroics, where mobs didn't have a ton of HP and you could cleave your way through them. Once you hit epics...it's pretty terrible. About the best thing you can do is use a few good knockdowns and hold aggro as well as any vanguard/defender due to your good threat generation and intimidate. Survivability: great. DPS: you're not a healbot cleric swinging around a mace, but you're darn close to it.

LRing tonight into some form of wolf build.

I hate to say "I told you so," buuuut...

I posted a pure wolf druid build here; although the iteration I'm currently using went TWF instead of SWF, that's more stat-intensive.

I went for TWF+Shield Mastery, I get offhand attacks wit the attack speed and still keep the tankiness I wanted (along with the many doublestrike benefits from shields).

That works too. I think my current build is TWF x3, Precision, IC:Blunt, Max, Quik, SF:Evo (+Magister Twist), Overwhelming Crit. This char predates U29 and I plan to HTR soon(ish), though, so it's kinda moot now...
