Changes to Venthyr Guardian Druid in 9.2
- now increases the duration of
by 0.1 second with each application (was 0.2 seconds) and you will not be overcome by Frenzy for 3 seconds after it ends (was 5 seconds).
Venthyr Guardian Druid Covenant Abilities
Venthyr Druid Class Ability:
The Venthyr Class Ability for Druids of all specializations is
: for 20 seconds, Druid spells you cast increase your damage and healing by 2%, and haste by 1%, stacking, 3 minute cooldown.
This an extremely powerful Covenant ability that boost your damage massively, especially on AoE heavy encounters.
Venthyr Druid Class Conduit:
The Venthyr specific conduit
, also increases our critical strike chance per stack on top of the base damage/healing and haste increase, furthering the absolutely enormous power increase while Ravenous Frenzy is active.
Guardian Druid Conduit Guide
This is best used in combination with
/
and the potency conduit
. With all these put together we become an absolute monster for 15-30 seconds every 3 minutes.
The main weakness of
is the long cooldown. The buff itself is quite powerful and is guaranteed to get good value in almost all scenarios, but for the long period of time where it is on cooldown, you aren't getting any value.
Also, if you are idle for 2 seconds while the buff is active, the negative health from the stacks can be quite dangerous in certain situations. However, it should be noted that you do not actually need to be hitting anything to maintain the stacks / not take the damage, if you are just spamming
your stacks will continue to go up and you will be safe from idling.
Venthyr Signature Ability:
is a targeted blink with a 1.5 second cast time.
The bonus mobility can be used to dodge mechanics, kite mobs, or even skip mobs entirely in some situations.
Mobility is a huge plus and i believe this is one of the best signature abilities of any of the 4 covenants.
Venthyr Exclusive Legendary for Guardian Druids
- This essentially extends
for about another 6-8 seconds where stacks build even higher and at the last 10 seconds of the buff you are reaching crit cap and dealing massive damage. This a very strong DPS focused legendary however you will sacrifice a lot of defensive power to wear this.
Other Legendary Interactions for Venthyr Guardian Druids
Venthyr has some mild synergy with most of our Legendaries but nothing large enough to change your general legendary decision.
is a great Legendary for Venthyr once you can equip two legendaries, as it adds even more power into our massive burst DPS window and the added leech makes up a great amount of defensive power.
is another great Legendary for Venthyr, as the increased damage and healing increases the effect, boosting our survivability even more.
Guardian Druid Legendary Guide
Best Venthyr Guardian Druid Soulbinds
Best Venthyr Guardian Druid Max Renown 80 Soulbind
Theotar the Mad Duke hosts an extremely strong overall tree that has great synergy with the Venthyr playstyle for Guardian Druid.
The below Soulbind Calculator is valid starting at Renown 60. Conduits are socketed in order of highest priority from top to bottom in order to facilitate the greatest benefit when empowering conduit rows from renown. Please see our Guardian Druid Conduit Guide for more information on Conduits including Empowered Conduits.
Guardian Druid Conduit Guide
Guardian Druid's best Soulbind is Theotar the Mad Duke at 80 renown for the majority of content,
,
and
make the Theotar tree very appealing, with a large boost to secondaries buffing our damage significantly.
Venthyr Guardian Druid Covenant Rotation Changes
This page only highlights the specific use case of the class and signature abilities. To see how they fit within the context of the entire spec, we encourage you to view other pages in the guide related to the context you are looking for:
Guardian Druid Rotation Guide
Optimally, if you have
, you should cast it 5 seconds after activating
.
If you are talented into
you want to activate it before casting
.
Other than that your rotation will remain the same as usual.
This is a pure mobility tool and won't affect your rotation at all, just use it when you want to get somewhere really fast.
Venthyr Guardian Druid Talent Builds
Venthyr has slightly more synergy with
as it lasts the entire duration of Ravenous Frenzy.
Guardian Druid Talents
Venthyr Guardian Druid Gearing Differences
Your gearing preference and stat preference remain the same with Venthyr, prioritizing gear with the highest item level and then Versatility > Haste > Mastery > Crit defensively. Offensively you will have to sim yourself for optimal stat priority.
Venthyr Guardian Druid Soulbinds Explained
Venthyr's have access to three Soulbinds:
Nadjia the Mistblade
,
Theotar the Mad Duke
and
General Draven
. These are the NPCs you complete the zone story with, and they allow you to bind yourself to them to gain access to a tree of upgrades centered around your toolkit, via Conduits and Covenant abilities.
This tree progressively unlocks based on completion steps (such as finishing the campaign) and your renown level with the Venthyr covenant.
Below are some optimal pathing and traits for each Soulbind, along with potential changes further down the line in Renown levels.
Nadjia grants you four impactful traits:
- While in combat, you gain a stack of Thrill Seeker every 2 seconds, or 4 stacks on killing an enemy. At 40 stacks Thrill Seeker is consumed to grant you Euphoria, increasing your Haste by 20% for 10 seconds. Thrill Seeker decays rapidly while you are not in combat.
- The benefits of Well Fed, Flask, and weapon enchant effects are increased by 20%.
- A great absorb shield added to 2 of the best panic cooldowns.
- A massive amount of stats that is active very often.
- Even more haste for this already extremely hasty Covenant; if you can line this up with
+
+
+ bloodlust or heroism you will have more haste than you could ever wish for.
- Can be quite significant as in Shadowlands there are some interesting Well Fed benefits and powerful weapon enchants.
An example tree to follow on this soulbind is as follows:
Theotar provides some good nodes:
- Your spells and abilities have a chance to call Tubbins and Gubbins to your side for 12 seconds, parasol in hand. Standing in the shaded area grants you 525 mastery. This is quite a solid amount of mastery and procs pretty often.
- An additional 6% vers during our massive cooldown window is great.
- A very solid amount of healing for your group/raid members. Can be a great alternative.
- Some movement speed and avoidance with your food buff.
- A good chunk of stats permanently.
Picking General Draven grants access to some powerful traits:
- Damage taken below 40% is reduced by 10%. Upon death you leave a stone husk behind which shatters after 3 seconds, inflicting 100% of your maximum health in damage split among nearby enemies, and healing for 100% of your maximum health split among nearby allies.
The passive aspect of 10% reduced damage below 40% is actually huge for us as a tank spec, and the husk has the potential to save lives as the healing it will provide will be quite significant.
- When a nearby ally gains temporary increased movement speed, you also gain the benefit, up to 30% for 8 seconds. This really adds up and increases our mobility by a lot, especially in a raid environment.
- Standing still for at least 4 seconds grants you 10% increased Stamina and 4% increased healing done.
This one is absolutely huge for tanks as it lasts for 6 seconds after you start moving, meaning it has essentially 100% uptime in the majority of scenarios, and 10% stamina and 4% increased healing is incredible.
- This can actually provide a massive amount of healing depending on your healing intake and damage intake.
- 3% damage/healing and damage reduction, pretty solid trait overall.
This is an amazing tree for tanks, and on more dangerous fights will be an amazing option.
Double Legendaries for Venthyr Guardian Druid
Patch 9.2 adds the option of using two legendaries at the same time, with the restriction that one of them is your Covenant legendary. This change empowers Venthyr Guardian Druid even more. You can learn more about it in our Legendary Guide.

Great guide, thank you so much for the information! Been playing Prot warrior for the last few expansions and wanted to try Bear Tank again for something new. I wondered if you considered lending your experience to the WoWAnalyzer site? They are currently looking for someone to help set up Guardian Druid with their system.
