Hey All!
Few words of context for my question: Until 2 weeks ago I was a Bear tank with a heal secondary spec. Being the only Druid in my raid (10), I ended up gearing the healing spec pretty fast as every leather heal drop was for me.
Then an old friend started WOW again and just joined the raid as a DK tank, I offered to stop raiding as a bear to make room for him and take a healer spot then.
I also have a warrior tank (around 5500 GS) which I like to play a lot.
The more I think about it, I don't see myself tanking anytime soon with my bear. And when I feel tanking, can still use my warrior...
I see 3 options for me which I'd like to submit to the MMO Champs community:
1) Keep a bear spec. Even if I don't play it, shit can happen and guild might need me to tank from time to time
2) Save my Bear stuff in case of #1 happens and gather some nice Balance gear. If I need to respec into bear its only 35gold. Downside: I have to spend frost emblems on my main spec (heal) so won't be a great DPSer as balance for a little while and then not much use to my raid.
3) Re-gem all my 251/264 tank gear with arpen and change my feral spec to a kitty spec. Doing that, I benefit from all my past investment on feral gear and end up with a pretty nice kitty. Only downside is the cost of re-gemming (approx 4k gold) - can also re-gem back to tank if needed for the same cost..
Please help me decide
