I recently started playing my druid as main again and went feral but I’m having a very hard time staying alive while fighting rares etc. My hunter and paladin could both in same I lvl gear take on hard rares quite easily with bm pets tanking and healing for tons! And paladin with pslte armour, word of glory and bubbles etc didn’t have too much problems either, but when I try on my druid I’m dead I seconds… I die super quick and the regrowth proc after combo barely heals anything, I feel like it’s impossible on my druid to fight hard enemies solo where its a breeze for paladin and hinter, doesn’t seem fair.

how? they just break roots almost instantly or are immune etc.
Run circles round them. You’re faster than they are.
We’re always going to be a lot squishier than those in plate, I survive by speccing for more heals in the talent trees. Rejuv/Swiftmend/Renewal alongside Barksin, Survival Instincts, Bearform + Frenzied Rejuv, Heart of the Wild, shifting to cheetah and leaping to safety, Dash and Stampeding Roar, Enrtangling Roots. We have a lot of survivability unless we end up pulling too much, then it’s probably goodnight.
Oh and you’ve also got the choice between Incarnation or Convoke, so you can get some distance and just disaapear instead of dying or use the convoke and get some added heals in as well.
and then I run up to them to hit them, they hoit me back for a ton, then i have have to heal, i used my instant cast on rooting, which rip then breaks in a second, i have to go human form to heal which he then catches me and smacks me again, all while im doing tons les dmg than normal becauseI can’t build and FB properly.
Well, your gear is very low. I guess it depends which rares you’re trying to kill.
Have you tried using FR in Bear Form? I see you’re using Regrowth procs, that’s part of it, but Bear form can get you some extra distance!
Guardian for outdoor pve really.
What do u mean rares? U want to solo 10 mil hp rares drom zaralek cavern as dps spec? This is almost impossible for most of the dps specs. Ofc not all and ofc not all of them have to be pve tanky style. This is called uniqueness and diversity. You have a whole tank spec for these situations though. If you mean 1mil hp rares then learn to play feral better.
No need to be so callous about it, the OP is asking for advice on a forum, meaning he clearly wants to play feral better, the whole point of his post.

You’re comparing Hunter pet tanking and Paladin sustain with squishy Feral. Guardian bear form is the answer here.
But the bear is not comparable to hunter or ret dps? So feral has to go tank to survive where the others don’t, so isn’t thay a huge disadvantage? Also my tank as Feral has 2 skills lol and a defensive. Pretty boring to play.
Yeah I meant the guardian spec…not just bearform.
Feral is just too soft to enjoy outdoor pve…and regrowth has been nerfed into oblivion, so selfhealing dont do much good.
You’re not wrong, but Hunter and Ret Pala are not the norm; several other DPS specs have survivability difficulties on some of the content. Using Guardian spec for open world means you can survive content which may be designed for more than one player… though yes, it may be slower. (NB: Slow but successful is better than dying!)
can you give an example? which rares and what is your ilvl?
