World of Warcraft (WoW) Classic Season of Discovery introduced a number of features to the game, including new abilities and Runes. To unlock them, players need to find and engrave them into their gear, and the case is no different for Druids.
In the newest update, Blizzard Entertainment added WoW Classic Season of Discovery. In this mode, players may revisit Azeroth and explore its fresh features. Certain classes may now take on other roles. When it comes to Druids, they remain unchanged, however, by being able to choose from becoming a Balance DPS, Feral DPS, Druid Healer, or Druid Tank, they already have enough variety of roles to select from.
Each Rune in WoW Classic Season of Discovery is different, and you can’t equip them all at once. They need to be engraved into your gear, and at the first stage of the game mode, you’ll be only able to use three of them. This number will increase, however, once the next update launches.
Without further ado, here are all the Druid runes in WoW Classic Season of Discovery.
WoW SoD Druid Runes, listed
Like every other class in WoW Classic Season of Discovery, Druid can learn up to 12 different Runes. These can be engraved on three different types of gear—Chest, Legs, and Gloves. Here’s how they are named, and what abilities they add to the character.
Here’s the list of all Druid Runes in Season of Discovery:
