Very nice, except for the socket bonuses. +9 agi? Yawn, gimme +int and we'll talk. Granted, it's better than nothing, but this set is entirely centered around a balance type character. The only person that would find use in this is a full on hybrid druid that is using rogue gear on his other slots.

I would call this the "Leve 70 Zul'Gurub" set. It has a nice set bonus, decent healing/spell damage.

This set is useful for a number of specs:
Ferals having back up healing kit - acquiring this would be easier than getting multiple tokens for their healing tier sets aswell as feral sets.
Hybrids wanting some nuke/healing power in PVP - perhaps explaining the agility socket bonuses.
Resto druids that haven't yet aqcuired the better geared healing items from raiding.

All in all this does look to be a pretty nice step into gear for raiding, when a group is just starting out in the instances around :)

Considering the sockets, this chest is better for healing than lifewarden (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=29781). And the blending of stats in moonglade makes this trump that one, too. I would say this is the best early-end-game druid healing chest in the game. And the belt and bracers are better than stormrage, so unless you're sporting dreamwalker, this is probably a good set to get. Hope you're all tribal LWers, too =P

So how does on change from elemental/dragonscale to Tribal? I really like this set but I'm elemental.

This is a fantastic raid set for certain specs especially. I am a Nature's Grace - Improved Regrowth hybrid and this suits that perfectly as I do not have to swap pieces pre-pull after trying to anticpate how much +healing gear I need to swap in.

One other thing is the wording of the equips:

"Equip: Increases damage and healing done by magical spells and effects by up to 21.
Equip: Increases healing done by spells and effects by up to 37."

Looks like the spell damage equip has the healing component as well making them stack as far as healing goes so for this piece it seems it would be +58 healing.

Still grinding out the skill points but can anyone confirm?

Oh and yeah the socket bonuses are a joke but that just allows you to stack your favorite gems. Personally, I was planning on three Solid Stars of Elune (+36 Stamina) and three Brilliant Dawnstones (+24 int total) anyway so might as well socket them in the apropriate slots.

About time.

Windhawk now has applicable socket bonuses and the stats and equips have been lightly buffed across the board (cumulative this is quite a nice change) and the set is solidified even more as the best balance armor in the game (assuming you find your heals every once in a while)

A graphic change would have been nice (so tired of the feathered breastplate bit) but overall no more complaints surface in my mind with regards to this set.

The spirit is still iffy depending upon play style (dreamstate is based off of intellect and meditation with 200 mana regen is roughly 30 mp/5) and mp/5 might have been a better choice since while a good majority of balance druids will have meditation it still is not balance talent and staying outside the fsr while filling a DPS role is not feasible (pacing is but not 5 seconds of inaction) I guess when innervate is up the spirit will help out but ideally I would like to see the spirit lowered and smallish amounts of mp/5 added. Having 20 spirit on the belt and 29 on the chest seems a bit much considering.

Set bonus is nicely functional but not overly impressive or much fun. I would prefer spell hit to negate having to use up other slots/sockets for it or a proc along the lines of spellstrike or perhaps something like increases the mana return from melee strikes in moonkin form... even a +200-300 AP while in moonkin form would be more entertaining and not as passive.

Still, great set... am working on my second one (one with healing gems, the other with straight damage)

Total mats required for set:

18 Heavy Knothide Leather
48 Wind Scales (approx 250 flying snakes)
36 Primal Air (324 motes, approx 1000 elementals)
6 Primal Might
3 Primal Nether

Kommentar von billymx

Decent for Balance but, good for Tree's as well. The spirit isn't the best (bracers throw it off) but its decent if your lookin to fill in your Heroic/Pre-raid items.

Kommentar von 7761

I just hit 375 and am currently building this set. Steep on the mats but worth it .. now if you have intensity, Dreamstate and Lunar Guidance

http://www.wowhead.com/?item=24065 - Dazzling Talasite

is a very viable option leaving the set with (it is 5:30 am hope i added right)
(Bonuses included)
Int: 91
Mp5: 20
Sp Dmg:80

now it looks meh dmg wise but 25% of int (with lunar guidance) = spell dmg so all this together with the int and mp5 and actually matching the sockets IMO seems to be the best way to go.. instead of say spamming 9spell dmg gems, Also this does not include enchants

and i know spellstrike is nice... but http://www.wowhead.com/?item=29142 is the same thing and 1 9 spell dmg gem + 2 talasite = 6Mp5 19 int adn 53 spell dmg i slapped a http://www.wowhead.com/?item=24274 on it and came out with

Mp5: 6
Int: 19
Sta: 20
Sp Dmg: 88

Kommentar von 26524

Ok with cheep gems and some common enchants this set packs
STR 6
AGI 6
STA 73
INT 77
SPI 62
+14 mp5
+95 spelldamage
+59 SCritRating
+258 heal

What can you get that is better that doesn't require more than 4 heroic runs to make/get ? and give you those stats on 3 pieces.

Kommentar von 81502

This armor is quite the pain to make. It requires a skill of 375 in Leatherworking, and the Tribal Leatherworking skill.

Here is the list of requirements, and the places I collected them:

36 Primal Air - There are two good places to gather Primal Air, and word has it will be harder to collect the motes as the drop rate is rumored to be lowered. You can either go to Nagrand and farm the level 69-71 Air Elementals, http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=22310, or you can go to Shadowmoon Valley, and farm the http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=21060. I did a little bit of both, though I spent a little bit more time in Nagrand as the drop rate is supposed to be higher. I also had to buy many of the primals because of my lack of patience, and because of the competition for these motes. On the Lightninghoof RP PVP server, they ran up to about 21g a piece.

48 Wind Scales - These drop off the 'Windhawk' beasts of either Shadowmoon Valley, http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=20502, or the http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=20502 and http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=21123 of Blade's Edge Mountains. I personaly farmed in Blade's Edge Mountains because there was always another mob to bounce to and from, not to mention the drop rate was a little better for me - and there were very few if not no adds at all. While farming these, you're also gathering the next reagent:

18 Heavy Knothide Leather - These are made from 5 Knothide Leather, which are made from 5 Knothide Leather Scraps, any respectable skinner knows this will take some time to gether depending on your farming.

6 Primal Might - This is made by gathering one Primal Mana, Earth, Water, Fire, and Air, and then finding an Alchemist of considerable skill to transmute them into a Primal Might. Mind you, only one transmute can be made a day; however, in my experience its not hard to find a transmute since they will often ask for tips making this a transmute reserved by most Alchemist.

3 Primal Nether - These drop off the last bosses of any dungeon, though if you run a Normal instance the rate is roughly 5%, where as in a Heroic it is 100%. Good luck gathering these, as they are BoP and can not be sold via the AH.

Good luck gathering everything and I hope this helps. I've been working on this myself for a long time, and it's deffinately worth the hard work if you're a Balance Druid, since you know that a good Moonkin set is hard to come by. As far as gems for this, it would of course depend, but I personaly wouldn't have any problem putting epic gems in it since until you can find a guild that will bring you along for raids, this is the best set you're going to get.

Its okay at best for balance. Granted it is 3 pieces so its not a big deal. But as super deep in balance Im not giving up massive critdmg to get healing bonus in the off chance I may have to pop out of my feathery form to heal. Just some thoughts for you to think about to the fellow balance druids.

Kommentar von 62025

This set is great, really great. But personally I would still prefer to see bliz make a set for restos (that can rival the mooncloth set for healing) and a set for balance. The endless hybrid gear is getting on my nerves a bit.
The little bit more healing a balance druid gets for wearing this set is trivial at best. Nice for healing in bad situations, but if the healing wouldnt be on these pieces, i wouldnt cry. Same goes for restos as well, but for the other stats of course.

A little edit: After reading the patches for 2.3 (if, of course, they're true) I noticed that one of these promised changes will increase spelldamage by 1/3rd of your +healing. Increasing the spelldamage on this set by (42+42+31)/3 = 38 to a total of 109. Making this suddenly a much more interesting set then it was for balance druids and in my opinion about in equal terms with the cloth set counterparts (Shadow's Embrace and Wrath of Spellfire). Would still rather have seen a different set bonus and still would've prefered a different set altogether for resto (crit doesn't do much for resto druids), but if the next patch holds this, it will make this set a lot more worth taking.

This is only true for items which are purely +healing(as in, have some +heal and no +dmg). As this entire set has +dmg and +heal, there will be no change with the upcoming patch.

This set epitomises Blizzard's apparent inability to understand how classes and specs work. Spell crit is useless for ToL druids, spirit is lame for doomkin and DS restos, the socket bonuses suck for resto... etc, etc. There is way too much stamina as well... sad thing is, any PvE resto druid would be way better off with the tailoring Primal Mooncloth set. /sigh

Kommentar von 100819

After patch 2.3.0 this is one of the best gear for balance druid at all.
just look at bonuses :D

Kommentar von Kabby

The +Spell Damage socket bonuses do count for +Healing as well. Edit: The items' tooltips have been updated to indicate this.

Kommentar von 96631

As a resto druid, take this instead of Primal Mooncloth. It's not so much that it's a better healing set, it's more that LW will give you more benefit long term than Tailoring. I still wear all 3 pieces of this set when I occasionally spot heal in BT/MH (I am feral), even though I have had access to drops from those zones for resto.

The set bonus is very nice as well.
