Lock & Feral druid?

kainelderan · July 14, 2008, 10:50 AM

So wife and I are trying out BG and 2v2 together.. I just respec'd SL / SL for PvP as my lock is basically retired from anything else. Can this be a good combo? I'm kinda wondering if I should try to push her to respec resto, but she has absolutely no experience as a healer and I'd really have to convince her. She's got very nice PvE gear that we are working to replace with PvP gear. Anyone have any recommendations? We got totally wiped in last night 2v2, 2-8. =( Is SL/SL good for arenas?

sl/sl lock and resto druid is a very good 2v2 arena team. Sl/sl is the most viable arena spec as it gives you much higher survivability then UA or Destro the only drawback really is the lack of burst damage.

I've tried Warlock/Feral Druid, and it's pretty terrible. It's basically worse in every way than just playing with a Rogue if you want to play double DPS. If you're going to play with a Druid, they should be Balance, Restokin, or Resto, Feral just isn't a good arena spec at all.

Yes, SL/SL is good for arenas.

Second that. Also SL/SL lacks the burst for dps teams. So reduce your list further to Restokin/Resto.

SL lock + Resto Druid is one of the top combos in 2v2, Feral Druid+ anything is one of the worst combos in 2v2.

I played 2's with a Balance druid as SL/SL and Felguard - did pretty well for a while simply because of the insane burst and CC capability but that said...

Really wouldn't fancy it with a feral.
