   Actually, it can be harder than you may think. ;)

That said, we've been communicating time and again that a key ring of some type is, in fact, in the works. Be patient -- we know it can be annoying to haul that many keys around with limited inventory space (particularly for Hunters and Warlocks). A solution is coming. :)

Q u o t e:
So, were the druids forgotten again? Healing/casting set, tanking set, generic feral set, trinkets and rings for all of those....hmmm.

My hunter friend (58) always has a bag and a half free. At 60, I'm lucky if I have 8 slots open.


Personally, I don't haul my various sets around wherever I go. My bank is groaning, but my inventory is (more or less) clear enough to haul some loot. Instead, I sit in front of my extensive wardrobe and grab what I think I'll need for the night. :)

Q u o t e:
So... you're basically telling us to walk off into battle half-prepared? And then you smile. Wonderful. You're so obnoxious it's painful, but you probably knew that. I bet you go to sleep every night, grinning at the fact that our PvP set speed-bonus still doesn't work, that the Feral tree is 80% useless, that catform is the biggest joke on this side of the hemisphere, and that the Frost Shock "bug" has been "working as intended"... SINCE BETA!


The Frost Shock "bug" is a bug, has been identified as a bug for a long time (we've never said it's working as intended. Check my post from February stickied at the top of the Druid forum if you're still unsure about that), and is fixed in patch 1.6, which is currently up for public testing.

The speed bonus problem is being investigated by one of the items designers at this time.

If you've noticed, one of the major topics this past week is that Druids are one of two classes next up on the developer's list to get an in-depth review -- primarily looking at the Feral Combat tree.

I play a Druid and my post there was given with the caveat that it is my personal playstyle. Note the "personally" and rampant usage of "I". What you choose to do with your inventory is your business, but I, personally, find I do not have to carry my +intellect set, +healing set, +fire resistance set, all-around set (Death's Clutch, Boots of the Shrieker, etc.), and feral/tank set around with me wherever I go, because odds are I probably don't need them all in a given evening. Generally, I wear my +int set and haul along either my feral or all-around set unless something special is going on. Breaking it down simply, if I have a bag for mount/keys/hearth/other essential items, a bag for food/water/potions/reagents, a bag for equipment, and a bag for tradeskill items, I still have a 14-16 slotter open for loot haulin'.

How you choose to play your Druid is up to you. I was only sharing my personal philosophy.

Now, back to the subject at hand, hm? :)

While I've already responded to your posts -- in which you largely misconstrue my own -- I'd just like to comment on this.

Any Druid worth their salt knows there's no one "true way of the Druid". Honestly, there's no one true way for any class. When we speak about what we personally do, that's coming from our experience as players, not as "Blizzard says this is what you must do". We don't dictate how you should play your class. We simply suggest that your way of playing may not be the only one. :)
