Druid race query

[Tupakk]

Best exp in the game from halflings. No other race is wortth it.

The Kelethin theme music is far superior to the Rivervale one. Also, root clicky.

Nothing beats NOT being crotch height to pretty much every other race in the game, though.

And how much of your character's life is spent leveling? Obviously the answer isn't the same for everyone: if this druid will be your main (it didn't sound like it was for OP), and you plan on getting to 60 and raiding, and then you actually go through with your plans, then maybe you'll get to the point where you've spent the majority of your character's life not-leveling.

But if ...

• you hit 45 and decide to make the character a Dial a Port druid
• you never make it to 60 before quitting the game
• you never make it to 60 before switching to an alt
• you make it to 60 but then quit/switch to an alt before you've spent as long being at 60 as it took you to get to 60

... then the majority (and probably vast majority) of your characters life will be spent leveling. And IF that's the case (again, not true for everyone) then would you rather be several levels higher or would you rather look good in robes (which you might not even wear if you don't raid) and save 40 mana every now and then when you root stuff with your lowest level root (which you probably won't want to do once you get higher level roots)?

There's a huge focus in this forum on maximizing power at level 60, but that ignores the fact that the vast majority of druids probably won't even make it to 60, let alone take as long of a time playing at 60 as they did leveling to 60.

Total truth. My Druid has been parked at 45 since I got there. It was sitting at 44 for the longest time til I did stonebrunt pandas. Which a few deaths here and there fix.

Also halflings just look cooler so there's that.
