Today's overkilliest video: Nerf Druid

Finally, some hard video evidence that druids are a bit too overpowered in World of Warcraft. You can't really argue after seeing this video. Could your poor warlock, paladin, or shaman stand up to this? We highly doubt it. Hopefully Blizzard will heed the call and scale back on the druids just a tad, because while some of the other classes are pretty powerful, this one goes to 11.

LMAO. The pause cap gave it away a bit, but still hilarious.

Mirth. Made me chuckle did that.

Haha. I was just watching "This is Spinal Tap" last night too :)

Hmm... I think I see something suspicious here. That druid appears to be in Outland, an expansion-only zone, but the explosion that results from his devastating attack has a time stamp from 2004. Now, I'll have to look into it, but I think the Burning Crusade expansion for World of Warcraft came out just this year.
I think this video may be the product of some clever video editing! We've been duped!!!

#4 Even if it is a fake, what if it is true? If we sit back and do nothing the druids win. I saw we go in and nerf them with what little evidence we have here and worry about the consequences later. It may take several years to sort this problem out and we don't need any naysayers getting in our way. If you really love World of Warcraft then you have to agree with what I'm saying.

Yes I agree, nerf a class that people who complain have never played up to 60, and know nothing of the druid ways. The only thing that needs adjusted at most is the armor/health/dps in bear form, everything else is fine and people need to focus on the real problem....warlocks :P

video would have been perfect if the druid looted it at the end.

It's all OK. The only thing the video proves is that Druids needed a nerf back in '04. They've been fully rebalanced twice since then.
No need to panic, it's just dated evidence.
