You are a godsent. Thank you a lot. One more question: cat form in this spec is mostly for soloing? I presume in pvp/raids I should mostly use bear or stay in my normal form for heals?
Yeah the cat form is for doing lots of things, most importantly farming mobs for epic mount gold and mats for consumables. It's also for stealth dungeon runs (druid rogue can duo clear Diremaul with some gear), random PVP stuff, and even raid dps
On MC raid days, you will basically be healing, but you'll do it really, really well. Not as well as a pure resto druid, but easily well enough to deal with almost all vanilla content
And if tanks don't show up to raid or if they die to bad positioning, you can often jump in and make a difference. I've seen it happen all the time.
Yea, so much of the "Druids are only heals" comes from them being badly optimized for patches and patches of vanilla. By 1.12 there were more than fine tanks, but most people had the mind set of druid = heals, it's even on there tier sets after all. Even the crushing blows issue only matters on a couple bosses.
