I recall quadding on my old druid before having a lumi staff, and it was great. Anytime you are using one spell to hit 4 mobs, that's pretty efficient damage-wise.

Lumi staff is convenient, but by the time you get to 50+, it's really quite weak and takes tons of time to use it if you plan to burn down entire quads with it.

More or less, I think it's just useful to finish off mobs when you want to try to save some mana.

Quadding really becomes less of a soloing strategy 53+ because there simply aint a lot of mobs available to quad.

Hence why so many people do bear pits, or end up grouping in KC and other dungeons just to grind the XP to 60.

Problem is, most groups prefer a cleric healing, or a shaman in group with a cleric, not a druid.

My point is, I would suggest quadding while you can do it, because the higher lvl you get, the less mobs there are that you can quad.

Other point is, lumi staff seems great till the mobs you are quadding appear tickled by it, and it takes 15-20 clicks of it. Sure, it's mana-free and that is awesome, but it's a very slow process if you use a lumi staff alone for higher level mobs.
