We Druids are a prolific bunch, and many feel compelled to share our perspectives on the World (of Warcraft) by blogging. Here is an extensive list of other blogs (Druid and otherwise) that I hope you will enjoy. Interested in subscribing to all the Druid blogs listed here in bulk? Check out The World Tree!

Nalik of Moonglade (EU) seeks to bring some “balance” to the Druid blogosphere by writing as a European, Tauren, Balance Druid. If there were affirmative action for groups, he’d definitely be getting in! - Feh - the Naked Druid
Feh is attempting to demonstrate that it’s possible to level a Druid without armor or weapons. Just how much exp can dancing atop a mailbox be worth, anyway? - Gray Matter
Graylo of Eitrigg (US) shares his Gray Matter, a personal WoW diary with tales of a raiding Boomkin whose guild is currently deep in Serpentshrine Caverns. - Kung Pow!
Mmmm … chicken. Waradwen of Arathor (US) joins the ranks of Balance bloggers, writing about his Tauren Boomkin. - Laser Chicken

- An Old Druid’s New Druid
The Alliance welcomes a Tauren-become-Night Elf Druid who enjoys raiding casually and apparently enjoys Druids enough to roll a second. - Big Bear Butt
Big Bear Butt has a cheeky name (heehee - get it?), some great Feral articles, and a big personality to complement his butt! - Cenarion Labs
I really like the name of this blog. Authored by Idahoe of Nordrassil (US), Cenarion Labs immediately gives you the impression that its subject matter will be treated seriously. - Druid of the Moon

From Doodle and Eustashius comes a LOLCats-inspired web comic about a Tree and a Cat and their perilous venture to attend Blizzcon! - Secret Agent Cat
Tigerfeet writes an entertaining and cleverly-themed Feral blog. They’ve give her a Mangle and taken away her Mane. - Tank Hard!
Written by a collection of authors who play tanks of various flavors (Protection Warriors, Feral Druids, and Protection Paladins), Tank Hard focuses on anything and everything related to keeping the nasties bashing their faces in. - Think Tank
This blog explores the role of tanking from the perspective of multiple tanking classes. There seems to be a plethora of great Feral-related articles, though! - Three Druid Noob
Razorbax of Medivh (US) plays multiple trios of characters, three of which happen to be Druids. He uses his blog to detail his various exploits as a multi-boxer. - Trizophenie’s Weblog

Druids: Restoration

A great Restoration-based Druid blog by Bellwether of Dark Iron (US). I’ve directed several visitors to her list of “Pre-Kara Level 70 Resto Gear”, a great resource for any newly-minted Restoration Druid. - Angus Meat-Shield
Mmmm … steak. Some of which turns into a Tree and casts Lifebloom! - Awlbiste’s Thicket

Jivethelle of Kul’Tiras (US) is a Restoration Druid into endgame-raiding. He’s also male and a Night Elf, which is perhaps even more impressive. - Daily Druid
Jadeyhorn of Scarlet Crusade (US) chose the right class (Druid), the right spec (Restoration), and even the right server (Scarlet Crusade). Unfortunately, she opted to play Horde so now we can’t stay up late together, giggling over Spirit-gear, and prunin - Druids do it Animal Style
Despite the name, Hathorn of Drenden plays and writes primarily about raiding as a Restoration-specced Druid. - For the Herd! For the Horde!

Intelligent discussion of World of Warcraft, raiding, and Druiding from Lilume of Proudmoore (US). - Mooonfire
Llanion of Arathor (US) cuts right to the point, eschewing the often cutesy names given to Druid blogs and hitting you with MOONFIRE. Over. And over. And over… - Omen of Clarity
Qz of Aerie Peak (US) writes a Druid blog with a strong technical emphasis, focusing on theorycrafting, UI addons, and number crunching. - One HoT Rogue
Don’t be mislead by the stealthing, stunlocking, cheesemonkey mentioned in the title. Aedos of Aggramar (EU) writes a wonderful blog about Druiding in an endgame raiding guild and a little bit about her Rogue alt. - Out of Mana
A female gamer who plays four level 70 characters, Megan provides a unique perspective on the game as a whole, and particularly on Player vs. Player. I try not to hold it against her that one of her 70s is a Warlock. - Part Time Druid
Azeroth and Resto Druiding from the perspective of a self-professed “casual” player. - Pookies is not a Bear

With four Tauren characters, one HAD to be a Druid or risk overlap. This one happens to be Restoration. - The Nyxes

Keredria (’K') of Drenden writes of her adventures as a budding Restoration Druid. With a sunny disposition and closeknit group of friends, her blog is an engaging read. - Treebound Cat

Auzara of Medivh (US) blogs about the joys and struggles of guild leadership within World of Warcraft, writing from the perspective of someone leading their guild through endgame content. - Daraxxus the Warrior
Another Scarlet Crusade (US) player, Daraxxus plays on the Alliance side. Given the fact his Warrior is a Dwarf, however, I don’t think we’ll be painting each other’s toenails. (Can you even find Dwarf toenails under all that hair?) - Dark Spot in the Corner
I predict that Dark Spot will soon be counted among the great Priest blogs of the Interwebs (of which there are far too many to list here; you guys ruined the idea of the “Holy Trilogy” long ago with your plentifulness). - Death from a Distance
Knurd of Greymane (US) raids primarily as a Hunter but occasionally plays as his Dwarf Priest, Benedykt. - Destructive Reach

Siana of Doomhammer (US) plays an Orc Shaman … I mean, Night Elf Hunter, a class she’s stuck with through thick and thin. Great writing and great pictures! - Need More Rage
What do you get when you cross an Orc and a Warrior? You wouldn’t expect you’d get something intelligent enough to use the Internet, much less write a blog. But Ratshag of Cenarion Circle does both! - Nerf My Shaman
Featuring a crisp, open layout and a healthy side of theorycraft, Nerf My Shaman is probably not intended to be an appellation to reduce the effectiveness of the Shaman class. - Of Light and Fury
Zerei of Skywall (US) is a prolific blogger writing on such diverse topics as instance-running, Jewelcrafting, itemization woes, and healing as a Holy Paladin. - One among Many
And she does mean MANY! The author of OaM plays a host of characters, both Horde and Alliance, although she professes her main to be a 70 Tauren Hunter. - Parry! Dodge! Spin!

The blogosphere always needs more Rogue blogs and Gweedo of Gnomergan (US) delivers! - Tiddly!
Tiddlywinks of Cenarion Circle (US) writes an awesome-looking blog about his time in Azeroth as a Gnome Mage. - Too Many Annas
