Balance Druid PvP Best Arena Compositions — The War Within (11.1.7)
Team composition in 2v2 or 3v3 Arena is very important, because not all classes work well together. Here, we give you the best compositions you can have for your Balance Druid (i.e., the best classes to pair with it).
This page is part of our Balance Druid PvP Guide.
2v2 Arena
In 2v2 Arena, you should be playing with a healer that has a reliable stun.
When you are ready to use your burst rotation, your healer should stun the kill
target. At the same time, use 
Entangling Roots or 
Mass Entanglement and 
Solar Beam on the enemy healer. After you are done using your burst rotation, you can use 
Cyclone on the enemy healer and continue doing consistent damage. When you are done using Cyclone or get interrupted, use 
Mighty Bash.
Here is a list of the best team compositions for 2v2:
- Balance Druid + Preservation Evoker;
- Balance Druid + Restoration Shaman;
- Balance Druid + Holy Paladin;
- Balance Druid + Mistweaver Monk.
3v3 Arena
Your role in 3v3 is similar to 2v2 Arena. When you and your partner are
ready to use your burst rotation, you should use Entangling Roots and
Solar Beam on the enemy healer. Your healer or DPS partner should then
stun your kill target. After your Solar Beam fades, use
Cyclone and Mighty Bash on the enemy healer.
Here is a list of the best team compositions for 3v3:
- Balance Druid + Havoc Demon Hunter + Restoration Shaman/Preservation Evoker;
- Balance Druid + Windwalker Monk + Preservation Evoker/Holy Paladin;
- Balance Druid + Demonology Warlock + Holy Paladin/Preservation Evoker;
- Balance Druid + Elemental Shaman + Preservation Evoker/Holy Paladin.
