Feral Druid 6.2

[Guest Xunn]

Many ferals are now using a GUI developed in weak auras that gives you very similar information to Droodfocus.

 

It can be found here http://fluiddruid.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=5034

 

*Credit to Pawkets for doing it

Can you make weakauras load only when im in cat form, i dont need it loaded when doing anything else

[Paloro 39]

Yes, you can.  You just have to create the conditional yourself under the trigger section.  Currently, I believe, it is set to load only when you have Feral selected as a specialization.

[Guest Obruce]

Droodfocus now working in 6.0.3

my stat priority crit>haste>agi>mastery (sim 603-3, gear 585.47)

unbuffed crit=58,13%   haste=25,25%  mastery=72,52% agi/ap=1566

sim dps 19610

[Guest ARUHN]

So the guide says to not use omen of clarity procs on thrash if you take soul of the forest, what is a suitable replacement then?

[Paloro 39]

If taking SotF, you will want to use Shred on OoC procs if not at 5 cps and Ferocious Bite if at 5 cp's.

I think this needs an update as none of the T7 Talents listed exist in game now

I'm not sure why you'd say that. They certainly do exist in the game. Are you sure you're in the right spec?

I think he is referring to the chart that contains all the talents and their icons in Section 1.  The wowhead server is giving a "null" response.

[Guest Pewzekatt]

Could Glyph of Savagery be worth using when using Bloodtalons. Or am I just being retarded thinking this?

[Paloro 39]

Glyph of Savagery is roughly a 5% damage loss.  If you are using Bloodtalons properly, you have enough skill to maintain Savage Roar as well.  Not to mention, Glyph of Savage Roar cuts out that first application.

Why is Moonfire in the feral rotation?

[Guest Exar]

The evaluation of Tier 4 talents in this guide needs to be revisited with the WoD launch. The information is accurate as of Level 90 in 6.0, but the Improved Rake perk drastically affects this tier. Soul of the Forest is no longer the best in every situation--in fact, Incarnation is actually stronger in almost every situation.

 

Pawkets has a discussion, complete with simulation data, in their guide at FluidDruid here. My own simming backs this up, but I'm a nobody so don't take it from me.

 

Also, for what its worth (given how they are name dropped at the start of the guide), Stenhaldi is currently using Incarnation as well.

[Guest Ryecoke]

"With regards to the damage-increasing buffs, it is only Rake that is worth talking about. Whenever the new Rake would be stronger than the existing Rake (for example, you find yourself under the effects of Tiger's Fury), you should refresh it."

 

Does this mean that a recently applied Rip should never be refreshed to be more powerful? For example, apply rip and a few seconds later you have tiger's fury up and 5 CP's... you should not rip and use FB instead? Thanks.

Why is Moonfire in the feral rotation?

 

It is only in the rotation if you take the Lunar Inspiration talent.

Could you point out exactly where it states this?  From everything that I can see, the guide lines up exactly with what you are saying (which is correct).

My comment was submitted and awaiting moderation before the guide was updated last week, and is no longer relevant.

1.1. Opening Sequence

Below, we list the ideal way to start the fight.

1. 5 seconds before the pull, cast  Healing Touch, if you are using the  Bloodtalons talent.
2. Immediately before the pull, use your Agility potion.
3. Enter  Prowl.
4. Once the boss is pulled, open your rotation with  Rake.
5. Cast  Incarnation: King of the Jungle, if you are using this talent.
6. Cast  Berserk.
7. Continue with your normal rotation.

 

You can now use your Agility potion while stealthed/prowling, so it may be beneficial to switch steps one and two.

[Guest Osito]

Newbie question, why is rake higher prio than moonfire although they do the same damage (112% of ap) but mf does it over 14 secs rather than 15 secs (rake)

Thanks for pointing it out. I'm fixing it now :)

The two have basically the same priority, the order doesn't really matter.

[Guest Khalidah]

So when are you fixing the stat priority ? Because everyone feels that haste is more needed as well as mastery unlike multistrike and versatility. So yeah, stop giving people fals things to lead with.

Are you referring to a stat priority in particular? As you know, we list several depending on a few factors. Thanks!

[Guest Thanks!]

Thank you for all the work that went into this guide, I have been wondering what I was doing wrong as I thought my DPS should be higher (still good but not good enough).  I can now see I've been doing things wrong on so many levels.

[Guest Guest]

I was looking at the enchants and gems that are best for feral druids. In my head it was full crit gems and enchant. For the weapon I was either going to use Mark of the Frostwolf (mastery enchant) or mark of the Thunderlord (crit enchant) and I was surprised to see that the recommended enchant is the bleeding enchant and I was wondering why.

 

I went to look at Stenhaldi armory and he is using Mark of the Thunderlord ; I'm so confused right now

At lower gear levels, <670, the bleed enchant is slightly better.  As you get more gear, Mark of the Thunderlord becomes the best option.

 

You will have to simulate yourself to see which is better for you.

[Guest Tervalas]

I've been trying to do healing macro which works this way :

1 : Heal the target of the target

2 : heal the target

3 : heal me

 

I did this : 

#showtooltip spellname

/cast [target=targettarget][target=target][target=player] spellname

 

but only point 1 and 2 work
