https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html Every change log entry for Arathi Basin for druids in WoW Forever, newest first: corrections, updates and rewrites. en Sun, 08 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-plainsrunning-tested https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-plainsrunning-tested Sun, 08 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Update The roamer now says what Plainsrunning does in Prowl and in forms, from my own test, and still leaves open whether it builds on this map at all. The Plainsrunning test has the detail. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-plainer https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-plainer Sun, 08 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Update Reworded throughout to read more plainly, and nothing in the advice changed. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-links https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-links Sun, 08 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Update The pre-match checklist links the fishing guide for the potion fish, and Contributing links the open questions page. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-one-page https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-one-page Sun, 08 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Update The short version’s heading now says it fits on one page rather than one screen, because on a phone it runs to about three. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-plain-reading https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-plain-reading Sun, 08 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Update The status labels and the list of open checks are gone, so each claim now names what it rests on in the sentence, usually the Classic rules or the community server data, and the recommendations (the near node, the Lumber Mill ledge for Balance, the hybrid on defence) are stated plainly as the guide’s own. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-reads-easier https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-reads-easier Sun, 08 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Correction I corrected the places where the page disagreed with itself, so snare removal rests on Travel Form’s live tooltip with only roots Untested, War Stomp in a form rests on Blizzard’s druid deep dive and is no longer Untested, Plainsrunning’s 2% is credited to the 26 October notes, and the five, five and five premade adds up. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-reworded https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-08-reworded Sun, 08 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Update Arathi Basin in Forever now opens with a list of the Forever changes a druid feels on this map, Solo queue sits straight after Node by node, and the closing comes before Still to test. Feral as the best clicker is labelled my opinion and depends on whether a click drops your form, and my picks now agree everywhere, so a druid holds the near node and turns to the delay and the call for reinforcements when a big push comes, Restoration anchors the Blacksmith with two allies, and a Restoration defender still keeps a Swiftmend-ready HoT rolling on themselves. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-07-dash https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-07-dash Sat, 07 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Correction Dash is 50% faster at Rank 1 and 60% at Rank 2 in Forever, by the live tooltips, the same as Classic. I’d given Classic as 40 and 50%, which was wrong. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-07-live https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-07-live Sat, 07 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Major Updated for the live game, so Arathi Basin is no longer a draft and the druid changes Blizzard published are stated plainly, whilst every map rule a live match still has to settle is marked Untested. Wowhead’s live tooltips now settle Travel Form, War Stomp and Dash, and the guide covers the 5 November Plainsrunning hotfix and the PvP vendors being down. The launch week hotfixes note covers the hotfix. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-04-near-node https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-04-near-node Wed, 04 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Update Softened the near node advice in solo queue, which is my opinion and keeps the near node as one of the team’s three bases rather than putting the team on three by itself. The development notes post this guide dated 2 November US time is now simply the 2 November notes, as it is everywhere else on the site. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-04-short-version https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-04-short-version Wed, 04 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Major Added the short version at the top, the thirteen calls the map turns on with the reason for each and a link to the detail. The masthead now says plainly that this is a draft and that Arathi Basin isn’t confirmed for launch day. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-04-build-35-0-16 https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-04-build-35-0-16 Wed, 04 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Update My own pick now refers to the 35/0/16 build, and the defender section says it takes one point of Overgrowth for a second root and two of Improved Entangling Roots so the roots hold. https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-04-published https://restokins.com/guides/arathi-basin-druid.html#change-2026-11-04-published Wed, 04 Nov 2026 12:00:00 +1000 Major First published before launch, from Classic rules, Forever’s notes and the community’s Arathi Basin guides.
