What would be the best choice for a serenguard and why?

Moon.
Weaponaura + the rest of drawdown > Stagform.
Shafts > Ringwalk.
Aura > Staghide. I think.
Medicinebag > Waxing, though, but knights have tonnes of health anyway.
And Ancestralcurse = Darkmoon.
...and...that's most of what matters to Serenguard I guess. I think Moon is still a better skill than Stag in general, and for warriors too. (Hartstone are still better than Moondancers, but not by virtue of their totems skill.)

Moon is winning.

No crap, Sherlock.

defnitley moon......hell even without all that crap about the defences or skills.....drawdown + weaponaure and AEON!!!!! are what you want as a BC

Pooint in case, slowlock, not too hard to do, hard to cure out of.

That wasn't needed Ceres, this is my poll.

Moon!

Covens!

Oh but it was..

I think he means for combat usage. Covens are only fun for Moondancers. Gwylifar spoils all the fun.

Hey... the War Coven effort is finally officially crossing over. Talk to Shorlen, he's got the goods.

Moon is hopefully going to get a lot more interesting for fighting teams soon, not just for front-line fighters though.

But... your choice really should depend on the RP and not just for the usual "everything should depend on RP" reason, but because you really won't be happy being in a coven if you don't like that sort of thing, and you really won't be happy being left out of them if you do.

Stag. Stag all the way!

Or I'll never hurt you.

Moon obviously, having a relatively powerful magical attack like moonburst to back up your physical damage output is worth it, next to the rest of the advantages moon has over stag, don't think stagform even offers any protection at all.

Moon is great for solo fighting alone for nifty abilities like Lash, Aura, Drawdown, and Beam (whoohoo, no power cost). I wouldn't classify Moonburst as a good incentive to be a Knight since most knights usually have barely any intelligence for an effective moonburst.

Stag is supposedly better for fighting as an invididual, but the abilities are just so limiting. The facepaints are great, but are mutually exclusive. Totems are mainly useless, it's all around sub-par. But I hope in the next Envoy report to address those problems.

Drawdown makes you tanky, gives you +10 to weapon stats, +1 mana regain, +1 int. Stagform gives you +1 dex, +1 health regen. Oh, and some stag abilities are cheaper when in Stagform, and headbutt does damage.

Moon is SO much better for warriors.

I miss Moon. At least you can be taken seriously with that Totem.

Stag has its advantages though, particularly the facepaints.

If you're a dreamweaver or a warrior. If I speed up my druidry, I slow down my runes. If I speed up my runes, I slow my druidry.

what are the advantages for Stag?

You could always go crow, and use the mighty eyepeck.

That skill PWNS the newbies, believe me

It amazes me that you take such pride in killing newbies. *shakes her head* Pitiful.

Their fault of rejecting grace! They don't lose much experience anyway, being of such a low level.
