Druid PL Tactics / Question?

[GreldorEQ]

I think the ES gloves are great for dungeon snaring in groups, or general group snaring.

For PLing, id go with the spell itself, half the cast time and only 15 mana. The gloves would make your initial mob gathering rather long. When you consider grabbing 20 mobs or so, it will take 80 seconds of casting with gloves and 40 seconds of casting with the spell for a total of 600 mana.

The ES gloves could be used for re-snaring if needed.

I was thinking of just picking up some ES gloves, the clicky snare ones, and using that to pull mobs/gain aggro. Since I'd assume the PL'ies for now would be around level 20 and under, I'd assume snare + my DS should be enough for me to hold aggro, especially is the PL'ie is only hitting the mobs a couple time. What do you think?

*EDIT* I forgot I had Sunbeam, an area effect blind spell. I don't think I've ever used it. As long as I'm within melee range of all mobs, if I cast it, will they all take off running or keep hitting me?

DS is zero aggro so you need something that will keep them mad at you, the blind AOE is interesting - I imagine the mobs will run but come after you with a vengeance. So keeps you from accumulating a huge crowd and in the meantime it doesn't take forever for the swarm to get to you. You probably want to experiment if it's enough hate to keep them off the PLee, I use a level 14 debuff that works well.

The most reliable way for me is to click DS off, pull a bunch of mobs one by one with snare.
Get to the player being PLed, have them cast an AoE or hit all mobs. Tab until no mob is at 100%. They give me a go, then I cast DS and sit down, watching my hp.
