Killer bees! They're huge and they're sting-crazy! Save yourselves! Your firearms are useless against them!
Insect Swarm is a talent-learned DoT spell and debuff.
| Rank | Level | Mana Cost | Damage | Training Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 20 | 8% base mana | 108 | Talent |
| 2 | 30 | 8% base mana | 192 | 60
|
| 3 | 40 | 8% base mana | 300 | 40
|
| 4 | 50 | 8% base mana | 432 | 20
|
| 5 | 60 | 8% base mana | 594 | 40
|
| 6 | 70 | 8% base mana | 792 | |
| 7 | 80 | 8% base mana | 1290 |
Notes
- Does not stack with chance to miss % of other insect swarm.
- Unlike a lot of other DoT spells which deals damage every 3 seconds, Insect Swarm deals damage every 2 seconds, meaning 6 ticks will occur in its duration of 12 seconds, 7 if you have
[Nature's Splendor].
Tips and Tactics
- The talent is useful when used in conjunction with Moonfire. In addition, it's a cheap DoT that gains 76% from your +spell damage, which makes it desirable for certain balance builds, making it one of the most mana efficient DoTs in the game.
- In a raiding perspective the damage mitigation with the chance to miss helps with the survival of the main tank.
- Unlike most (all?) Druid spells, Insect Swarm does not interrupt the swing timer. http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=2509262193&sid=1
