01 / Balance
Balance · lunar spellwork
Use Moonkin Form to strengthen Balance spells while keeping control tools.
Enter Moonkin before committing to a spell-heavy turn. Insect Swarm adds Weak and Poison; Hurricane covers groups with repeated damage.
CLASS FIELD GUIDE · Forms & Combo
Druid
Shift forms with a purpose: Bear absorbs pressure, Cat builds finishers and Moonkin strengthens Balance spells.

The class mechanic
Shift between Bear Form for heavy armor and thorns, Cat Form for combo builders and bleeds, and Caster Form for nature spells and healing touch.
Form-restricted tools, flexible recovery and Combo Points.
Shapeshift between Caster, Bear, Cat, and Moonkin forms. Cat attacks generate Combo Points for finishers.
BUILD AROUND A PLAN
Three paths through the spire
Build ideas follow the current card effects and class archetypes. They are editorial starting points, not measured win-rate rankings.
02 / Feral Combat
Feral · cat and claw
Stay in Cat Form long enough to build points, apply Bleed and finish.
Enter Cat Form, apply Bleed with Rake, then use Shred’s bleeding-target bonus. Spend accumulated points on Rip or Ferocious Bite.
03 / Restoration
Restoration · rooted resilience
Combine Block, Regen and a burst heal to outlast a dangerous sequence.
Build Regen before Swiftmend consumes it. Barkskin retains Block for the next turn, giving recovery cards more room to work.
Before your next run
- Check form restrictions before planning a sequence. A card that says Cat Form only cannot be treated as a general-purpose attack.
- Switching forms costs a card play and energy where shown. Draft enough tools for a chosen plan before building around frequent switching.
- Rip and Ferocious Bite spend all Combo Points. Build the pool first; Bear and healing turns still need an answer to incoming damage.
Talent planning
Balance supports casting, Feral supports Bear and Cat, and Restoration supports recovery. Your talent direction should match the form and cards you can consistently use.
