Keepers of Azeroth: Druid

Druid
The current Class Leader is DeadlyWabbit. If you cannot find an answer to what you're looking for and it is class related, please contact him for further information.

This guide is divided into three portions: Feral, Moonkin, and Healing. each section will inform you of what is expected when you sign up for a raid, and also has some basic advice to keep your performance in tip top shape. It is assumed you keep your gear enchanted/gemmed properly. Info is based off of patch 3.0.9.

Feral

Tanking
Raid ready: You are ready when you have right about 30000HP and can comfortably tank most heroics. Tanking is one of the most unforgiving rolls to someone who is under geared. while low DPS can be made up by other DPS in the raid, there is no way of making up for getting 1shotted by a boss.

More info/tips on tanking to come Soon™.

Kitty DPS
Raid Ready: you should be able to consistently hit 1700-2000 DPS on the heroic target dummy using only your self buffs and cool downs.

According to elitist jerks the reccomended priority list of abilities when DPSing is as follows :
Quote

As I understand it, the best DPS rotation for a cat with this spec is determined by a priority chain of ability use that works like this:

1. Keep up Rake
2. Keep up Mangle
3. If both are up, Shred for combo points
4. Use Tiger's Fury at 25 energy or less
5. Use OoC procs to Shred over a Rip/FB
6. Use only 5-CP finishers
7. Keep up Savage Roar
8. Keep up Rip
9. If Rip and SR are up and Rip has more than 4-5 seconds left, FB
10. Berserk on cooldown, ideally when at 80-90 energy with TF up


the easyest way to keep track of all the debuffs/cooldowns is with an addon. badkitty does a good job.

A basic recommended Spec.

A list of suggested pre-raid gear to go for here.

Mangle and rip glyphs strongly recommended.

Flask of endless Rage is your best friend.



Moonkin

Raid Ready: about 1400-1500 spell power, but mainly the ability to hit 1600-2000 DPS on the heroic target dummy.



Healing
