Druid Tank: BiS list
Level 30 (beta)The best gear for a level 30 Druid in the WoW Forever beta, slot by slot, with stats and a source for every item. Tank list: Stamina and armor first: Bear Form multiplies the armor of your gear, so leather beats the same stats on cloth. Then Agility, then Defense. Unlike in Classic, weapon damage counts in Bear Form, so pick your weapon on damage and stats together.
