I just want to be able to do Tanaan content (Kill rares, complete apexis quick, AoE large packs of mobs, etc) easily, bearing in mind the current buffs/nerfs. Gimme answers skilled druids!

Inc + Ca + NV as a moonkin can handle pretty much any number of non elites, or kill nameds as Moonkin. Large pulls without said cooldowns can be dangerous though. Can't speak for feral, but I expect it'd be much the same with less range > >
The one you have gear for.
You can try to fit me in a box, only to see me burst out of it.
Nice, never thought of that. Might actually do the dalies then now.
you can stealth as any druid spec, but to the OP, if you are 700 ilvl, cds and NV starfall makes you invincible if you use typhoon and vortex to postpone. For effectiveness they both work but balance can aoe better, while feral does more ST. Depends on your playstyle and what you plan on gearing /playing for.
...I did a few hours of Ashran to get the blue 670 gear, upgraded head/cloak to 715 and things die super fast and can solo pretty much anything...pull a llarget pack then pop incan+Natures Vigil and the pack is dead in seconds...
Blizzard has really hosed Feral this expansion with their terrible AoE but I don't think there is any doubt Feral is one of the best if not the best spec for soloing and dailies.
699 ilvl boomkin and i was soloing rares like Deathtalon and Vengeance. I have all but one rare for Jungle Stalker and I finish every apexis zone in about an hour. Along with Artillery Strike you feel nearly invincible. Boomkin is also AMAZING when you are farming Saberstalker rep (though cross realm hoping and killing Soulslicer is the fastest way for rep anyways) and getting the Blackfang claws.
With gear boomkin is pretty insane at doing dailies, however that is almost definitely true with feral as well. At 700 ilvl I am able to press star fall and just walk through the an entire area of non elites with ease. I farmed around 35ish mobs in about 40 seconds this way. For the aoe advantage I would say boomkin, really boomkin is just better right now because of ferals aoe struggles.
As a badly geared druid: feral works better for me than balance. I can switch to bear form if it gets rough, and the stealth (faster stealth, that is) is a nice addition to questing speed.
If you have the gear, I'd agree that balance is probably faster because of the AoE damage.
This is definitely gear dependent. Once you start getting HFC gear combined with the Fel buff mobs fall over just from looking at them.
