Zakk Gard contributed to the wowsims/mop repository by developing and refining Balance Druid simulation features over a two-month period. He implemented core class mechanics such as Force of Nature treant management, Healing Touch healing logic, and nuanced energy interactions between Soul of the Forest and Astral Communion. His work included backend development and simulation programming in Go and TypeScript, with a focus on maintainable code structure and accurate game mechanics. Zakk also addressed spell balance, mana cost tuning, and stat dependency fixes, while updating test infrastructure to support alpha and beta readiness, demonstrating depth in both feature delivery and code quality.
