I was wondering if someone could give a good comparison of both tracking and totems for warriors who have access to moon and stag? I've never done either before, but moon and stag seem so much more useful along with totems because you get buffs, and you also get to be resurgemed. How exactly does Tracking match up with this? What are its specific advantages? How are these on the battle field?

You can be resurgemed through our Moon Altar construct, which gives you the Moonchilde defense, so that's not really an issue.
Tracking has almost no defensive stuff, but pits/traps and your timberwolf could be quite useful in certain situations. Still, most would say that Moon > Stag > Tracking. The downside to Moon is that it relies on the shifting phases of the moon, so sometimes you can't raise or use your two best defenses, and some of the abilities are coven-based, making it more of a group activity. Stag is great for the lone wolf warrior, but it lacks some of the oomph you find in Moon, both offensively and defensively. And, even just the basic Totems spirits are very handy, so don't forget about those!

Totems is better for 95% (number guesstimated) of people.
Loads of utility, and Moon / Night provide some of the best buffs in the game.
Tracking can be powerful, but primarily for groups, and you need to know what you're going to do with them.
