Information

A Support Druid build designed for Raids and "challenging" content.

It provides support in the form of multiple unique damage buffs, boons, healing and also deals decent damage. 11-17 Might, Fury, Swiftness, Regeneration (400hp/s). 60% uptime on Vigor and Stability while Spirits are up.

This allows other classes to focus more on DPS and less on additional support. Additional Might stacks will come from fire fields. Provides large DPS increases through Spirits, Glyph of Empowerment, Grace of the Land and Spotter. This is a possible 35% direct damage increase, 15% condition damage increase, 7% critical chance and 30 burn ticks every 8 seconds for a party.
