JoJ just sucks for a druid. In BGs, it's not too bad, unless it's a one on one sitatuation and I know I am out geared and possibly going to be out played. Even in arena, if you can run long enough and not get hit, you can eventually get out of combat and stealth again. Although your running is impaired in travel form, you should still be able to find ways to run long enough to get out of combat.

You could always try a maim if you have the CPs on him, then run, and if he trinkets out of it, immediately bash him. Snaring is useless on pallies, so I wouldn't bother trying unless you are just trying to plant him down long enough to get a spell cast.

By the time you get away though, if he gets close to you again, be prepped for another judgement, as it will be off CD by that time. lol

Unless the pally has exhuasted his Hammer, I would never trinket out of justice.

wasn't the wording changed for repentance so it'll work on non humanoids?

Good point. Actually, JoJ appears to only work on NPCs now. Druids no longer have to worry about it. *thumbs up*

*Edit* I just looked it up again. The "NPC" part has been removed, apparently. It appears that pallies only need ot hit one button to judge it now, so they can put it up even faster. It appears they can also use it on mounted players too and with the increased speed of its' use, that will be happening alot.

Go bear form and fight like a man.

This is a lvl 35 here. There is no repentance, but it doesn't work on druids in cat/bear/travel form. At your level, you are SoL against a pally. Why? You don't have the necessary talents to survive against one. No furor, no berzerker, no anything really involving pvp. Your best bet, avoid the fights. I couldn't kill anything while I was leveling as feral. It always made me mad. Your talents are majorly gimped till you get maim and some other useful talents and itemization is horrible till you get FAP on your weaps in outlands. If you are boom, you might have a fighting chance if you had cyclone, but if you get the jump on him, you will probably win. Just stay at max range as much as possible.

As resto, you would have to twink, and you could actually survive against a pally. Blessing of freedom has a pretty big gap. Make sure you shift out of bear with a rejuve. Once his HoF is up, you can root him and gain some distance. You're best chance is to travel with the group.

At 70, I have enough time to type out /lol and /pat while he's shredding me.... Art of war is a wonderful thing. I do still get beaten down. But not by feral druids. Basically, casters will take out pallies rather well. Especially if they can't use their bubble and the player did propper research on the class's weaknesses(cooldowns). In BG I feel gimped unless I have a healer or 2 on me. In arena, I'm pretty powerful as I always have my cooldowns. Knowing the cooldowns is how you beat a pally. Mages, shaman, warlocks, and some boomkins can take on paladins. Warriors can also do it, but it's pretty rough for them. Rogues too, but it takes skillz and a 1v1 situation that goes flawless. Without intimate knowledge of the class, they are very hard to beat, yes. I won't lie. Heal debuffs, ranged nuking/kiting, and abusing their cd timers is how to kill them. As a druid, paladins are definitely your counter as far as class mechanics go, but at your level, if you twink, you can out heal his damage.
