Guardian Druid Dragonflight Leveling Guide From 1 to 70 (Dragonflight 10.0.7)

The best gearing while levelling is quick and easy upgrades with the highest item level possible, stats are not relevant and the gear will be swiftly replaced as you go through the levels, so try not to go too out of your way for a single piece of gear while levelling.

You are first able to choose talents at level 10. Choosing Guardian automatically grants you the Thrash ability.

Below is a list of high-impact talents that are extremely valuable while levelling, the earliest level at which you can talent into them, and their effect. You can also opt to take certain talents at later levels if there are things that you are more interested in acquiring earlier. That is the fun part of talent trees! There is also an example tree to preview with all the talents mentioned.

• Level 13 — Survival Instincts — reduces your damage taken by 50% for 6 seconds.
• Level 17 — Berserk — your main damage-increasing cooldown. Reduces the cooldown of Thrash, Mangle and Growl by 100%.
• Level 18 — Ironfur — your active mitigation spell, increasing your armor which will reduce Physical damage taken.
• Level 26 — Skull Bash — charge to a mob and instantly interrupt their spell casting. Can also be used as a handy charge if you ever get knocked back.
• Level 30 — Feline Swiftness — increases your movement speed by 15%, great for faster levelling.
• Level 31 — After the Wildfire — every 200 rage you spend will heal you and others around you. This is a huge boost to the sustain of you and your group members.
• Level 37 — Tooth and Claw — this causes auto attacks to have a chance to empower your next Maul cost no rage, deal 40% increased damage and reduce the damage the target deals to you.
• Level 39 — Fury of Nature — boosts your Arcane damage by 20%. Primarily for more Moonfire damage.
• Level 55 — Galactic Guardian — your damage has a 5% chance to proc a Moonfire on the mob and empower your next Moonfire cast by 300%. This is a huge damage boost and will be game-changing once acquired.
• Level 57 — Twin Moonfire — this increases Moonfire damage and causes it to hit a second target nearby.
• Level 58 — Heart of the Wild — increases the effectiveness of your non-bear spells by 30%. This means 30% more Moonfire damage while active as it is considered a balance spell.
• Level 59 — Rage of the Sleeper — Reduces the damage you take by 25%, increases the damage you deal by 15%, grants you 25% leech, and reflects damage back at attackers.
• Level 61 — Circle of Life and Death causes your damage over time effects to deal their damage faster. Another large damage increase increasing Moonfire and Thrash tick speed by 25%.
• Level 63 — Elune's Favored — increases Arcane damage done by a further 10% and you now heal for 30% of Arcane damage done. This is a massive increase for self-sustain.
• Level 65 — Incarnation: Guardian of Ursoc — transforms your Berserk into a superior ability, lasting longer and granting you an extra 30% health while active.
• Level 67 — Ursoc's Guidance — reduces the cooldown on your Incarnation: Guardian of Ursoc based on Rage spent. Good for getting those strong cooldowns up more frequently.

Due to Guardian being unlocked as a talent specialization at Level 10, you should make use of the abilities provided to you in the intro quests until you are presented with the option.

1. Buff yourself with Mark of the Wild.
2. Enter Bear Form.
3. Maintain Moonfire on the target.
4. Use Barkskin on cooldown.
5. Use Berserk on cooldown, ideally against multiple enemies.
6. Cast Thrash on cooldown.
7. Cast Mangle on cooldown on 4 targets or fewer.

10. Spend Rage defensively with Ironfur.
