Feral or Balance OS for Skinner...Let me explain

[Bram24]

I primarily heal on my druid, who is a LW/Skinner. What looks to be the better DPS spec for that? I've been Balance for a long time now and has been historically helpful in tagging multiple targets with DoTs and AoE.

I don't know enough about Feral to know if the AoE is decent for grouping multiple mobs. They seem to be better at single target DPS, especially in Legion, which I don't think will make my skinning as efficient.

What are your thoughts on which Off-Spec is better suited for this during this expansion...Thanks in advance for your opinion.

Have you thought of guardian? their AOE damage is solid and they obv sustain better and if you go moonbear it is easy to pull mobs with moonfire.

I wasn't...I may try it.

Go guardian, you can tank alot of mobs at one.

Guardian is the win here. You can pull all the mobs you can see, pop Rage of the Sleeper (Artifact weapon skill) and spam Thrash/Swipe and everything just melts. Skin away and go find another pack.

Guardian.

Brambles + Galactic Guardian talents.
Also Lunar Beam.

First set of mobs rounded up use Rage of Sleeper.
Next group use Lunar Beam.

Rinse, repeat
