Druid Hero Talents — The War Within (Season 1)

This page is specifically about Hero Talents in The War Within. If you want to learn more about the best regular talents for Balance Druid, check out our Talents page:

Keeper of the Grove is a single target-focused build which revolves around the use of Force of Nature. It is highly flexible and allows for burst damage on add fights.

Elune's Chosen is the Hero Talent Tree focusing on Arcane damage and spells like Fury of Elune and New Moon. It is a the primary multi-target talent setup but there are not many opportunities to use this in the raid.

Keeper of the Grove is the current best Mythic+ talent setup. This offers a blend of burst, sustained, and boss damage needed for a Dungeon. Its main appeal is that the burst is frontloaded and ramping into each pack is much easier with Treants of the Moon.

Elune's Chosen is still viable in keys but does not do as much as its alternative. Over a much longer pull, Elune's Chosen will have more overall damage but it is not as strong in dungeons where pulls are generally twenty to forty seconds long.

Can sometimes impact the rotation. If you are able to use Force of Nature to apply Moonfire, you can get into Eclipse and then your rotation more quickly.

The rotational changes are minor for the Elune's Chosen Hero Talent Tree. The only thing of note is when using Lunar Calling which no longer allows you to use Solar Eclipse for single target. You will be casting Fury of Elune more often with the Lunation talent as well.
