The best feast available early on is the Pandaren Banquet Icon Pandaren Banquet for 10-man groups and Great Pandaren Banquet Icon Great Pandaren Banquet for 25-man groups, which give 275 primary stat.

Flasks and Potions

Balance Druids will use Flask of the Warm Sun Icon Flask of the Warm Sun as their flask.

Potion of the Jade Serpent Icon Potion of the Jade Serpent is the best potion for Balance Druids, and should be paired with your cooldowns or increased boss damage taken phases in order to maximize its benefit.

Master Healing Potion Icon Master Healing Potion can save your life in an emergency, so always keep some around as a complement to your class defensives.

4.3.

Bandages

Heavy Windwool Bandage Icon Heavy Windwool Bandage are rarely of use due to forcing you to channel for their healing, but if everything else fails they can still make a difference, so try to carry some around just in case.
