Improved Mark of the Wild

Post by Nizo776 » Thu Oct 03, 2024 7:50 pm

I really like buffing people when I'm out in the world and would like improved mark of the wild to be worth picking up. The current bonus it gives is too way too weak to justify 5 talent points. The increase is so negligible, especially on lower ranks of motw.

Just throwing out ideas, but maybe doubling each point to 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, would make it worthwhile. Probably needs even more than that. 100% at max rank. I want people to be like "thanks... oh thats the upgraded one nnnniiice". I want people to feel the difference.

Maybe also give druids the ability to make a sharable healing over time consume. Like "seed of rejuvenation" or something, and not stackable with the rejuv spell. And druids have to harvest the ingredients for it from some random herbalism nodes or something. The idea is mainly to help world questers. Could even have a little tree spawn at 60 so people can pick their own seeds off it.

Just more helpful ways to interact with other players is good. I wish I could throw the stat boosting potions at people too to grant them the effect. If it was like throwing explosives it could be a fun metagame trying to nail passersby, and also avoid the clunkiness of interrupting players to trade.

Never raided and don't pvp, so you'll have to excuse my ignorance as to how that might affect balance there.

I mean it is kinda lacklustre, another good idea would to be like cut it down to 3 talents rather than 5, as it is a boring talent to invest it as such.

Maybe could also do 1/2/3% to your stats as a passive also.

I think it is strong in current form. At least in raiding. 5 points invested make big difference if you buff all 40 players in your raid group.

When doin my first raids I noticed gift of the wild seemed to only buff my party. Do you have to manually put the 30min mark on all the other members?

You have to target a member of another party/group to give them gift of the wild.

You have to use the group version, "Gift of the Wild".

Its not worth taking the talent at lower levels , because the Percentage increase isnt enough.

However max Rank Mark of the Wild with the talent provides an extra
99 Armor
+4 Stats
+7 Resistances.

Then if you count +40 players thats in total extra with the talent:
+3960 armor
+160 Stats
+280 Resistances.
