would 0/60/11 be better once u get better gear and crit unbuffed?

No it wouldn't. At the moment this spec is great for double dps teams.

Yeah it would be better to get more crit damage once you get enough crit chance... Except you might still want to pick up natural shapeshifter atleast 2/3 into it imo.

Idk, i like my spec a lot, except for not having primal tenacity,.. if i dont have feral aggression, i dont deal all that much burst damage,.. is ferocity that much better? as well, ihave predatory instincts for a little bit more burst, due to fero bite being near 100% crit once bleeding. any advise?
HnrFeb 20, 2009 - 6:06 PM (HideShow)
I would prefer 0/58/13 because it has a lot more crit dmg.

0/60/11 is a lot better for hpala/fdruid. You are seriously not going to run OOM by SSing too much. 4% crit is overrated, I'd rather have something else, like PotP for 6% AP + free damage reduction in bear form.

why have feral Instinct? well for taurens its useful, but night elves don't need it because we get the racial: Elusiveness which reduce the chance enemys will detect us in shadowmeld or prowl.

so you could either go for the extra armour which i dnt think would make much difference or go for PotP for the extra AP and to reduce dmg when you go into bear form but yes, overall this is a great spec to down your enemys in 2v2 / 5v5, but for 3v3 is my need changing a little bit for survival and burst dmg reasons.

it, not is sorry :)

Im new to feral druiding, i've played resto since BC came out though and play'd 1900s in 2s durring BC,
Anways, what is your main attack as feral, shred or mangle?
and do you ever both with rake?
also when do you use mangle over shred or visaversa?
thanks:D

I just recently changed from Boomkin 2 Feral for arena pwnage. I do some pretty sweet dmg with an altered spec of 0/58/13. I put pts into PoTP instead of doing the 4% crit but I think I'm gonna go back to this one b/c I don't have enough crit to insta-gib clothies yet
GarnassApr 7, 2009 - 3:02 PM (HideShow)
Gailbait- mangle is only used to get the debuff on the target for shred to do 20% more damage i think it is... or 30%. But shred does more dmg and always keep your bleeds up and mangle up in order for your bleeds and shred to do more dmg.

I believe I got a nice damage spec going for atm, check my armory and my other spec. Granted I didn't take any bear survivability talents, like the extra armor and less damage in bear, but bear in pvp gear is still a fing tank lol. I didn't get Master Shape shifter because I didn't think 5 points was worht getting 4% crit from. And with beserk up I tear through any kind of healer, if its a disc priest and they don't pop Pain Supression when I open on them they are one dead healer. Pallies are fairly easy cause I can keep them stunned long enough, shamies are alittle harder cause they do have insta heals and a hot or 2, druids have hots so they are the hardest to take down for me atm, and if the priest isnt disc or doesnt pop all thier cds they are dead meat.

As for the rake comment I don't use it, I hear it was buffed but it still does not doa significant amount of damage to be worth the energy. All you need really is mangle, shred, rip, then work back up to 4 or so and FB them. I use my energies for shred/mangles, not much to work rake in there unless I have beserk up and even then I just keep hitting shred after rip is up ;)

I find that master shapeshifter is a waste of the 2 points as well as putting 3 points into Natural shapeshifter
my cat form cast is 363 mana atm and it has never been a problem
my spec is nasty for 2s, but i have yet to find a competent partner to run with

for healer,dps teams
what i usually do is get 5 combo points on the healer then switch to the dps, when the dps gets low, i switch to the healer and main, and finish off the dps
i only use mangle and rip usually to burn dps down as well as ferocious bite to finish while healer is maimed

double dps
pressure and cc...i tend not to be heavy on roots and cyclone, but i natures grasp when i can

This is so ironic, that people state that "rape disc priests" and have arena rating at 400 or no arena teams at all or no active feral build.
GishusMay 28, 2009 - 2:06 AM (HideShow)
I'm in full feral pve gear with a holy pally atm, i wouldn't say feral 'rapes' disc priests, but given pve gear they can wear down a priest enough to where they don't have the mana to outlast a berzerk.

PotP Attack power only works in bear form. If you don't believe me, check your cat AP before you invest talents. Its a bear only talent

When doing Arena, in particular 2v2, I am considering going with my JC Stamina gems to build a bigger stamina pool vs Agil, AP, or Stren. Looking for opinions if stilting your gem selection toward stamina is good or bad in concept for arena.

Thanks!

I strongly reccomend maxing out Protector of the pack and thick hide to add bonus dmg and survivability
ShinigamîJun 30, 2009 - 12:09 PM (HideShow)
protector of the pack is imo a must have.
MytharisJun 30, 2009 - 12:27 PM (HideShow)
i don't have brutal impact or master shapeshifter :/ i'd rather have predatory instincts ;)
MytharisJun 30, 2009 - 12:30 PM (HideShow)
oh actually,i see why shin has protector of the pack after noticing you ran feral/rogue
SancctifyJul 9, 2009 - 5:02 PM (HideShow)
I'm playing resto with my druid now, but I'm thinking of respeccing to feral. What kind of sockets and enchants should I get? Should I just spamm shred or mangle?
PnkJul 21, 2009 - 2:00 PM (HideShow)
Sancctify you dont spam anything. Your number 1 priority is keeping savage roar up and while it is up, use get a 5 combo point rip off with a rake after it. if you are bleeding a dps to try to kill him youre going to want to charge the healer and bash+cyclone and switch back onto the DPS you were killing. If he isnt dead and cyclone runs out have your healer throw a CC on him... as far as sapmming goes if you have extra energy and need combo point make sure you have a mangle up and keep shredding...you shouldnt be shredding if rake isnt on the target either.

what r good glyphs do use with this spec?
MarnarSep 8, 2009 - 1:52 PM (HideShow)
I roll this spec with the bleed crit talent. Took 1 off of healing touch that 2% i dont have is worth the point switch. NOW TO FIND good partner
BkSep 8, 2009 - 10:30 PM (HideShow)
what is best to stack for pvp gems. armor pen or agility?
DsdsSep 20, 2009 - 11:52 AM (HideShow)
GUYS!! u are missing a important thing. PoTP only works when u are in bear form.
DsdsSep 20, 2009 - 11:53 AM (HideShow)
DsdsSep 20, 2009 - 11:53 AM (HideShow)
what do u think about putting talents in predatory insticts instead of master shapefister
BrodyonwowSep 23, 2009 - 10:50 PM (HideShow)
in my opinion first off. predatory instincts is a must have. that is basicly 10 % more dmg because high geared ferals crit constantly. with 0 crits we dont really do anything. its why teh class is crit buffed off the walls.on the rake topic, if im fighting a hunter or a pally or a dk or a warrior you can bet rakes up. at 1.7k ticks its pleny of dmg. and tonight mea nd my priest have been k0ing dk priest teams. simple pounce fero rooar mangle rake shred til rip shred til fero bite. with a fear and insta cycloen on priest dk will die FAST even with sacking pet and so on.

ALSO FO RANYTHING THINKING NIGHTELVES DONT NEED FERAL INSTINCT. YOUR WRONG. sm racial is like barely anything. and you need it trust me. point made.
IkillforfunNov 7, 2009 - 12:59 PM (HideShow)
This spec completly sucks! Mangle does way more damage then shred, even with a mangle debuff on shred does slightly more damage, but mangle costs 8 energy less! plus u have to be in back to shred! and no preditory instincts? are u serious? primal tenacity isnt needed! u have berserk for fear, and barksin for stuns! ill have fun raping the nubs who pick any of these specs listed here lol!
