Nature Walkers Scimitar  

 

Yes, this epic and all other epics were re-itemized in the Serpent's Spine expansion and can be equipped by Drakken. The item picture here is outdated, but the item info at the top of the page is up to date.

as a druid on Firiona who is about half done witht he epic, i can say that many of the items are no-drop. Further, i dont know if you can MQ the turn-ins. that is, someone hands in the first items, and you hand in the last to get the resulting piece.

WOW!!! 0pp 4days. Im epic level 51 druid... sorry dude, but why would you waste 100k to do this quest??? it is simple

To be exact, the cast time is 9 seconds flat. It decreases 55 hit points per tick. But, it lasts for 3 minutes.

Hope this helps! Grats on spear!

Why do u use creeping crud at 53 when u get insect uprgade DOT at 34 (Drones of Dooms) and at 44 Drifting Death..?

But for all druids there is a good thing to know, all our Dot (upgrade) are stackable,

Sometimes, when i am soloing and want kill a mob with a certain Hp amount, i use at 56 my last 3 "insect" Dot plus Fire DOT and the Epic Dot and it's Rock !

I do recall focus effects activating when I would click my donal's bracer. I don't have an epic for my druid but I would assume there was some way of shortening cast time.
some combat procs are affected by AAs. I know from experience that Direct Damage procs are affected by spell casting furry, or life tap procs can get exceptional heals.
Hopefully a druid can post and confirm/deny if epic is affected by AAs and such.

Alright, I just gotta say this before more people die cuz group leaders read this post.

It's the group leader's JOB to tell you what to do. If they have no idea what a druid is capable of, well then, don't join that group. If they DO know, then they will tell you exactly what you should do.

You do not know how many times my warr has died because the cleric just MUST melee, cuz heck, they don't know otherwise.

My bard's died because I must move in and take all the melee hits (Tunare only knows how when these tanks get taunt and I don't) and then got whacked to smithereens.

My mage has died because the tanks are disorganized and someone says that they're in wherever we're hunting, and it turns out that it's JUST THEM, so I die looting my corpse.

My Enchanter has died many a time because people can't hit just ONE MOB and no one knows who's pulling.

I'd like to conclude with this:

High Druidic knowledge leader=good

Low " " " " " "=BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD

Knowledgeable that doesn't say anything=Dead from level 60 to 10.

Just an observation and an opinion, but if I were a melee type, I wouldn't want you in my group with an attitude like that.

If you're told what's expected of you while you're part of a group, you should focus on doing just that. If it means healing and light buffing, it also means you're sitting on your tush medding when you're not casting. If you're asked or told to do something else by the leader, then you should do your best to do it. THAT is how to be a team player and provide the best support for the group.

Are Druids are powerful.. YES! Druids are the all around best utility type in game. We can solo, we can group, we can heal, we can dish out damage, we can travel, we can do just about anything. But you're useless in a group with no mana and trying to stand in there with the heavy hitters, unless your group or raid leader tells everyone to start bashing for some reason.

What you should be doing is considering the needs of your group depending on your situation. What if an evac was called for? You're standing there hitting for skill ups and your mana pool is empty. Guess it's time for a mass CR..

Are Druids melee class.. NO! Never were druids intended to be melee class hitters past the n00b stage. It's fine to skill up in those areas when you can, but choose the practice times wisely. You're much more powerful with mana in store.

In short, guard your attitude and do what you're told. Do this to the best of your abilities and you'll long be remembered as a desireable group member. Flaunt your arrogance and you'll find yourself with fewer opportunities.

Didn't really intend this to be a flame, but I see too many attitudes like this and it's what gives us all a bad rep.
