WoW Forever Balance Druid Enchants and Consumables
Tooltips: Wowhead Forever DB, exact matches only (build 70532, 28 Oct).
Wowhead wrote this while the beta was capped at 30, so it covers levelling. Level 60 picks are their projection [Unconfirmed]. Tested level 60 data: Not yet published, updated at launch.
Balance has no way to turn health into mana, so Wowhead leans its picks toward mana: Mageblood, mana potions and runes. A Revelation crit also triggers Nature's Grace, so the next cast is faster too.

Enchants while leveling
| Slot | Pick | Gives |
|---|---|---|
| Weapon | Enchant Weapon – Revelation | Next spell +100% crit after a non-crit |
| Chest / legs / hands / feet | Mystic Medium (15) → Heavy (30) → Thick (40) → Rugged (50) | +2 / +4 / +5 / +6 Spell Power plus armor |
| Neck | Enchant Necklace – Spell Power | +6 Spell Power |
| Bracers | Minor → Lesser Healing Power | +3 / +6 Spell Power |
| Chest (alt) | Enchant Chest – Superior Intellect | +8 Intellect, if you drink after most pulls |
Level 60 targets [Unconfirmed]
| Slot | Pick | Gives |
|---|---|---|
| Weapon | 2H – Spellblasting / 2H – Mighty Spell Power / 1H – Spell Power | +65 / +55 / +30 Spell Power |
| Head and legs | Arcanum of Focus | +8 Spell Power |
| Chest and feet | Mystic Rugged Armor Kit | +6 Spell Power, +40 armor |
| Hands | Gloves – Arcane Power (raids) or Natural Power (AoE) | +20 Arcane or Nature damage |
| Bracers | Enchant Bracer – Greater Spellpower | +16 Spell Power |
Wowhead's rule: a school glove enchant beats the kit once that school does over 30% of your damage. Starfire and Moonfire carry single target, so Arcane Power is the raid pick.
Potions and runes
| Kind | Ranks (level: effect) |
|---|---|
| Spellblasting | Minor 5: +6 SP · Lesser 15: +9 · 25: +14 · Greater 35: +20 · Superior 45: +28 · Major 55: +40 |
| Mana | Lesser 14: 320 · 22: 520 · Greater 31: 800 · Superior 41: 1200 · Major 49: 1800 |
| Rune | Dark Rune / Demonic Rune: 900–1500 mana for 600–1000 health |
Runes have their own cooldown, so a potion and a rune can go back to back; heal up after. Dark Rune drops in Scholomance and is tradeable; Demonic Rune (high-level demons in Felwood, Azshara, Blasted Lands) binds on pickup. A Healthstone shares the rune cooldown.
Elixirs
| Kind | Pick |
|---|---|
| Spell Power | Minor 1 (+5) · Lesser 25 (+15) · Arcane 37 (+20) · Greater Arcane 47 (+35) |
| Nature | Elixir of Nature Power (55, +40 Nature, new in Forever) |
| Crit | Elixir of the Owl (55, +25 Int, +2% crit); Elixir of Sages / of the Whale (+25 Spirit, +2% crit) |
| Mana regen | Mageblood: Minor 5 (+3) · Lesser 25 (+6) · 40 (+12) · Greater 55 (+20) |
Owl is the best crit elixir for Balance (more Nature's Grace). Forever's Elixir of Sages isn't Classic's Elixir of the Sages; check the name. Nature Power, Owl, Spellblasting and Mageblood recipes come from Merchant's Favor (Waylaid Crates).
Weapon, food, situational
- Oil: druids have no imbue, so a wizard oil fills the slot (Minor 5 → Brilliant 45: +36 SP, 1% crit).
- Food: Spell Power food by default (Sagefish → Salmon); Soaring Pamplona (+20 Int) if you drink after every pull. +5% kill XP while Well Fed.
- Situational: Swiftness Potion; Free Action or Living Action for stuns only (shapeshifting already breaks roots and slows). Prowl makes invisibility potions rarely worth it.
