I still haven't decided hunter or druid as my main.

Advantages :

Hunter-

Rolls during raids are uncontested in my guild because we don't have any hunters (well.. people who play hunters as their "Main").. and very VERY few enhancement shamans..
Pet to level with while I'm leveling.
I enjoy 'the hunt' and having something with me at all times.. in the form of a pet.

Druid-

I love transforming and having alt forms.. flight form will be amazing.
I like the versatility of the class.
I enjoy druid immensely, just as much as I enjoy hunter.

Disadvantages:

Hunter-

People always complain that hunters are to blame for extra pulls during runs..
No 'travel' forms, so extra expenditures on mounts, other than my initial mount because I'll be a worgen.
Having to fight for the pets I want and .. hunting them down.

Druid-

Contested roles during guild runs because we have other people who use the same stats as druids..
... that's.. it I think?

Argh. This is a tough choice.


Either way, I'll be a worgen and a leather worker and skinner.

Obvious choice: Both!

Choice you want: Druid! Because you asked people to pick one. I pick druid.

I'm currently levelling my second druid (this one to be balance/resto, my existing one is feral/feral). I also have an 80 Hunter.

Personally, I find the druid(s) more fun to play solo, but the Hunter infinitely more relaxing and enjoyable in a raid setting, so I say go with what you find most fun for what you spend the most time doing. If I was raiding a lot I'd be a hunter main (lots of buff options, fun to play, low stress) with druid tank second (we always need tanks, and I feel reasonably confident about it). For random dungeoneering I'd go druid.

Soloing, I love both classes and would have a LOT of trouble choosing if I could only have one. =D

My absolute favorite thing to do with a group is 5-man tank. I also really enjoy healing. But I've found that long-term, trying to be a dual specced healer/tank for a raid group is just WAY too stressful for me. I still learn more about the mechanics of the fight that most in the raid just out of habit, but as a hunter I can have an "off day" where I zone out a bit and not have it effect more than a couple hundred DPS.

I'm going to be a hunter main. Gearing up a resto shaman second so I can fill that "argh maybe we can do this with this many healers ..." spot and keeping my druid in decent gear so she can burn people through heroic point-farming once everybody gets around to it. =D

Personally, I say druid. They're a fun challenge if you go feral DPS. And for me, I just can't bring myself to use a hunter. After playing my warlock, I realized a few things. One, hunter pets require way more control then demons and two, I have a fear of sending in Fluffy, him pulling half the instance, and causing chaos. I just don't have that with my demons. It's strange.

In the end, I just say druid. You can really sum my post to that. Druid.

The more and more I think about it.. I'm leaning *Back* toward Druid because I'll love the flight form more.
