[Swiss Mercenary]

In one particular instance, no one else was there. I guess I was kited in that he ran just out of range and healed all the time. I can't say whether there was a gear difference or not. If there were (and it's likely), it was to his advantage. He didn't run out of LOS, there was no resilience involved, and I kept charging him. He had enough mana to keep healing, keep running off, and finish me off with Moonfire. Warrior vs. druid.

Maybe I just suck, or maybe my gear was just that much worse than his, but I cannot for the life of me see how I could have stopped him.

Warrior vs Druid is very much a case of Rock vs Paper... And you have to realise that while yes, he killed you with moonfire, if you were causing a net mana loss to him (Even if it was a slow one), then in an arena environment, you would have been making headway, as his moonfires would not have killed you. He'd have eventually had to resort to his tricks with roots, cyclones, travel form and drinking...

I don't know what else I could say. Warrior/Druid was a common team, and hence, they'd frequently be pitted against eachother in mirror matches - yet, one of the two warriors would always succeed in killing the enemy druid - at any level of gear.
