Well, Take that last post and ignore it. 3.1 was released yesterday. Dual-Spec is all the rage, and the first thing I did when I logged in last night was port to Moonglade, Head to the Druid Trainer and purchase it. I spent some time looking over specs and decided that a Resto Raiding spec would be best. I then looked into Balance specs and decided to use a solo/5-man spec for now, as I don’t have the hit gear to go Balance in a raid.

Where did I research my specs? Who did I trust to help me out with the placement of those all so important talent points? Bloggers, of course!

I was looking through the Resto blogs to see what ideas people had for different healing specs and finally wound up on restokin.com where there’s a great group of articles on PVE healing in 3.1. I looked over the different specs as laid out, and decided that My main focus is generally tank healing, and since I had planned on finding myself that new Nourish glyph ASAP, I chose the Nourish based Tank healing spec. That sounds like me. Right?

Then I wanted to grab a balance spec, since when I respecced last Friday I just kind of threw it together on my own without any research, I went straight to Gray Matter and Graylo’s most recent Mailbag post on Balance specs in 3.1. Since my raiding gear is all resto, and I only have about 130 Hit in my epics, I decided to go with the Solo / 5-man Spec, since I’ll probably only be using it to do dailies and hopefully getting into a heroic or two for some new gear to get some more hit on it. I may change up the spec if it’s not working for me, but I think I’ll do fine with this one for a while.

So, yeah now I can also be called a restokin… Or maybe a Woody-Owl. Hmm.. nah. I’m still a Treebound Cat, but I like playing with the birds too.
