<p>At lower levels, a Fury is going to be just as strong as a Warden for healing, and Strike of Thunder/Starburst lines put some serious hurt on your enemies. In the long run though, especially already having a DPS in the group, I'd go with Warden. The power efficiency is what really makes them shine, and if you still want to DPS the melee build works pretty well. One thing of note in PvP is, especially at endgame, the resist rates for spells can be really high. Furies lose a lot of damage potential when they hear the resist noise over and over.</p><p>Crusaders are both very strong in PvP at the moment, so they'll make a great tank. Everyone and their grandmother is playing Shadowknights, so if you guys want to be a little different you might want to try Pally. Not as strong as SK, but they have some great tricks up their sleeve for holding aggro (Sigil force taunts enemy players to the pally 75% of the time on group members taking damage, locks them on for 3s per taunt trigger) and spike damage (Castigation is amazing if the timing is right).</p><p>For your third, if you want a pure DPS scout, Assassins are nice but might have trouble stealth chaining if it's only a 3-man group (assuming you're planning on group v group fighting). Swashie might be a better choice, more surviviability as well as more AOE damage to pressure the healers. If you're taking a Pally along, they also debuff Divine. Brigs are a little less damage but they do a great job harrassing people with stuns and knockbacks. I wouldn't take Ranger, in a group you're going to want people close enough to heal and taunt off. Troub might be a nice third, while they do less DPS they still have the essential track and evac, but they give power regeneration and some crowd control- Charm lasts only a short time in pvp, but if you charm the right enemy it causes a lot of trouble.</p>

<p>Thanks for the feedback, was actually thinking of starting a Fury and changing to Warden later.  And thanks for good Trio feedback as well, I'll mention it to my friends.</p>

<p>See, it's better to ask someone who has played both on all levels because it's very, very, very likely someone gives you wrong information. I've done both at all levels so let's get some facts in. Both druids are roughly equal in healing power ( unless we're talking epic weapon, because wardens wont run out of power then ) , the only thing that makes them different is what heals are available to them and which ones to keep up. Most furies dont know how to heal or gear for healing so in turn, you get bad furies. Good ones can heal and still parse something decent. The only problems you have in high level pvp is having the right gear to keep people off you (averting eyes, fear, etc) because druids can be pretty vulnerable without it.</p>
