Balance druid Preraid BiS?
Balance druid Preraid BiS?
Hi guys, as the headline says im looking for Preraid Bis items for balance/Boomkin druids. Toss in a good Stat priority too if you can )
Re: Balance druid Preraid BiS?
don't know the exact list but here's a few items I can think off of the top of my head
- Spellweaver's turban (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=22267)
- Diana's Pearl Necklace (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=22403)
- Boreal Mantle (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=11782)
- Hide of the wild (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=18510) crafted
- Bloodvine vest (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=19682) crafted
- Dryad's wrist bindings (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=19595) pvp reward
- Mindfang (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=20214) pvp reward
- Therazane's Touch (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=19315) pvp reward
- Power of the high chief (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=34424) quest
- Eye of the beast (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=13968)
Either those 2 trinkets or 2x mindtap talisman (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=18371), don't know for sure if boomkins really need that mp5 so someone has to correct me on that.
- Fordring's Seal (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=16058)
- Don Mauricio's Band of Domination (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=22433)
- Bloodvine Boots (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=19684) crafted
- Bloodvine Leggings (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=19683) crafted
- Ban'thok Sash (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=11662)
- Desert Bloom Gloves (http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=20717) quest
Again im not 100% sure on all these items but this should be pretty much pre-raid BiS for boomkins. It's not really any different from a regular clothie caster list since there's barely any (or maybe no) leather items that have any extra hit rating that would be decent for moonkins

Re: Balance druid Preraid BiS?
Aren't Moonkins getting extra SP or hit from int or spirit or something?
Aka Funkelstein
Re: Balance druid Preraid BiS?
@Dunkelstein, yes. One of their talents converts Intellect into spell power. Lunar Guidance, 12% of int into SP.
Boomkins are special, they get 4% hit from talents putting their goal as 13% from items.
3/3 Bloodvine is a given, fleshlight is a given, turban, these all are non-optionally bis atm for boomkins (and all spell casters, really). This'll get you 8/13% for your hit.
I'd recommend going for Mark of Resolution (2.25% hit trinket from a quest), Don Rodrigo's Band (PvP ring, 1.25% hit, 1% crit) and the +5 hit to boots enchant to put you at 11/13%. From there Diana's Pearl and Ban'thok Sash get you capped. You can replace some of these in ZG once you get hit items from there. Noteworthy mentions are Bloodtinged Gloves, Cloak of Consumption, and Jin'do's off-hand. Protip: replace the belt first, you've got stronger spellpower options worthy of replacing there.
The rest of Hamsterwheel's list is accurate. I'd get Don Mauricio's Band of Domination over Fordring's Seal (crit's fairly valuable point for point with spell power). Mindfang is a definite winner for your main hand weapon, nothing can compete with it. Personally I go with Lei of the Lifegiver off hand for the extra mp5, but it does have a cost of 5 spell power. Worth IMO, you will oom on long fights (Golemagg, Ragnaros)
#edit
you asked for stat prio. How about stat weights?
Spell power = 1
Int = .175
Crit = .9 - 1
Hit = ~1.8
Mp5 = .5 - 3
Hit cap is important, don't overlook it. 17%, get that number drilled into your head.
Crit is mana, crit is haste. Crit is love, crit is life.
Intellect is mana, crit, spell power, all in incredibly small doses.
Mp5 is mana. Will become worthless later on at higher levels of crit. For now, recognize that it's a great stat to prevent ooming.

Hit is incredibly important, look to run the fleshlight trinket and another hit trinket that I can't remember off the top of my head. Something else to consider is running the melee AV ring just for the hit.
