Best Gems for Balance Druids
Because of the different stat values, as discussed in our stats page, the value of each gem varies, depending on the stats they provide.
The Red Gems are usually the most valuable, granting a lot of Spell
Power.
Blue Gems have Mp5 and
Yellow Gems have Hit, Crit or Haste,
which are also very valuable.
Phase 2 introduces the Stormjewels epic gems as a small drop chance
from the daily Fishing quest. You can use one of these to gain a minor
stat bonus over regular gems, but they are likely to be expensive. If you want
to use one, we recommend a Runed Stormjewel.
Wrath Balance Druid Meta Gem
Chaotic Skyflare Diamond is the best overall
Meta Gem for
Balance Druids, increasing your damage substantially and making your
frequent Critical Strikes deal even more damage!
Wrath Balance Druid Red Gem Sockets
The Runed Scarlet Ruby is the main gem that you should be putting
into the
Red Sockets on your gear, with
Veiled Monarch Topaz also
being worthy of consideration if you need extra Hit.
Wrath Balance Druid Blue Gem Sockets
Royal Twilight Opal is the best
Blue Gem, and you need two of them to
unlock
Chaotic Skyflare Diamond. Try to put them into
Blue Sockets in
order to get some socket bonuses as well.
Wrath Balance Druid Yellow Gem Sockets
Veiled Monarch Topaz is the best
Yellow Gem. Use them on
Yellow Sockets
with good bonuses if you can use the extra Hit, or
Reckless Monarch Topaz
/
Potent Monarch Topaz if you are already Hit capped.
Wrath Classic Balance Druid Complete Consumable List
Because of their expensive spells and frequent Starfall uses,
Balance Druids can be quite Mana hungry. You can prolong your Mana
bar by using consumables and dropping
Moonfire completely from your rotation.
Wrath Classic Balance Druid Flasks
Flask of the Frost Wyrm is the recommended flask for Balance, and is
much stronger than using double elixirs, while potentially being much cheaper
for progress on hard bosses because it does not get removed on death.
Wrath Classic Balance Druid Elixirs
Spellpower Elixir is the best Battle Elixir and
Elixir of Mighty Thoughts is the best Guardian Elixir.
Wrath Classic Balance Druid Food Buff
Fish Feast,
Tender Shoveltusk Steak, and
Firecracker Salmon
all grant 46 Spell Power, and are the best food buffs available.
Wrath Classic Balance Druid Potions
Potion of Speed is the best DPS potion during a fight and should be used
during Lunar Eclipse with trinkets and
Hyperspeed Accelerators. For pre-potting
purposes, use
Potion of Wild Magic, instead.
