Playing guardian is much more fun with Typhoon, but I will never get to use it because Ysera’s gift is tied to our survivability. It will also really suck when feral and balance healing gets nerfed across the board because they felt heart of the wild made them too good at it. Typhoon is a very fun ability to use on guardian and feral(stealth LM typhoons) and they are just being screwed over so that they can say balance has an active ability. PvE feral will always choose balance regardless of typhoon for the range and they happen to get typhoon as icing, and PvP ferals will just choose whatever keeps them alive longer in the current patch between guardian/resto.īalance druids get to laugh to the bank because they don’t even have to make a compromise. Guardian will always choose resto affinity for % of health healing. Putting Typhoon into balance affinity is only a meaningful choice for resto. In addition, when activating Heart of the Wild, you will gain a new buff called "Heart of the Wild", which tooltip will say exactly the same as the talent in your talent tree.Heart of the wild only gets chosen because it is broken, not because it’s fun to heal for 45 seconds.

If you hover over any of your spell abilities, both new and spell abilities you already had (like Wrath and Moonfire), while Heart of the Wild is activated, and look at the tooltip, you will see that the values for damage have been changed. All these spells are usable when you don't have Heart of the Wild activated too, they just won't be "buffed". You can switch to Moonkin Form via the Stance bar or via key bind, all though the game should switch into Moonkin Form for you automatically when you activate Heart of the Wild and have Balance Affinity chosen.

If you hover over any of these spells (except Typhoon, which is usable in all forms), the tooltip will tell you that you need to be in Moonkin Form to cast them. These new spells will be located under your "Feral" tab in your Spellbook. Balance Affinity say that you get these spells when picking that talent: Starsurge, Starfire, Sunfire and Typhoon. Let's say you are in Feral specialization: when you select Balance Affinity as your chosen affinity talent, you get an extra button for Moonkin Form on your Stance bar. If you choose Guardian Affinity, your Guardian abilities will be buffed, etc. That is - if you chose Balance Affinity in row 30 and Heart of the Wild in row 35, your balance spells will be buffed. Whichever Affinity talent you chose will be buffed when you select Heart of the Wild. Your affinity talents are located in row 30: Balance Affinity, Guardian Affinity and Restoration Affinity. Heart of the Wild is a talent that buffs your chosen Affinity.
