Mounts can mine. Druid travel form is useless since dragon riding was introduced; i wish we had form to be dragon and have dragonriding as druid form. As a balance druid, all races do a lot more damage and I am easily one-shotted. Resto druids weakest healers of them all. Questing as a balance druid feels squishy. Bear form only has four buttons. This is my worst expansion to play a druid. I have really invested in my druid and can’t reroll anymore.
i had more fun BFA and Shadowlands as druid; felts speical and powerfull.
I would disagree (on some points), I use my resto druid in epic BG and usually end up in top 3 with healing, as for the other spec for questing and other world stuff I use the guardian and found it to be great going solo against rares / elites etc.
So far I did avoid Feral, but heard some good things and I might try it soon.
As for Balanced I did not find it to appealing.
My suggestion would be to find some activity that can make the druid useful, if you don’t like healing then try feral as others suggested.
