Equipment will be the main source of your character’s power, contributing the biggest bulk of your stats. It is therefore very important that you choose the correct equipment for each slot — commonly referred to as “best in slot” equipment – to maximize your power. This guide will cover the best items for each slot for Restoration Druids in the current phase of Cataclysm Classic.
Cataclysm added armor specializations for each class, so you won’t want to wear Cloth armor anymore, even if the stats are better. The Intellect you get from Leather Specialization is too good to pass up.
