Feral Druid DPS Gems, Enchants, and Consumables — Midnight Pre-Patch (12.0)

Welcome to our Consumables page! Here we will cover the optimal gems, enchants, food, potions, and flasks to use for your character. If you're looking for stat priorities, please check our dedicated page for your Feral Druid.

For all consumables (excluding food) in the lists below, if you are looking for a cheaper alternative, look for a lower rank of the same item listed. The price difference is often significant for a small loss in stats gained.

It is recommended that you simulate your character for gems, as individual gear pieces have a big influence. As stats are very similar across different builds and content, we have a one-size-fits-all approach:

• Use Culminating Blasphemite in your first socket.
• Aim to have one of each color of gem to maximize its effect, focusing on Mastery. Use a single Masterful Emerald, Masterful Ruby, and Masterful Sapphire.
• All other sockets should have Masterful Ruby / Deadly Onyx.
• Pre-Patch note - You may also find at especially high gear ratings that Haste or even Versatility gems are recommended to round out your stats. This is quite common due to diminishing returns, so follow your Sim!

You can also optionally substitute the Culminating Blasphemite for an Elusive Blasphemite. This trades a small amount of DPS for additional movement speed instead.

For weapons, Enchant Weapon - Authority of Radiant Power is the general recommendation for all content due to the increased value of Agility in Midnight. You may find, depending on your gear, that some secondary enchant options might be worth considering - if so, follow your personal sim.

Your ring enchants are determined by character sims, though Mastery is consistently a good choice.

Cloak, Bracer, and Boot enchants are personal preferences as they have no direct impact on performance, but we recommend Avoidance and Stamina for the extra survivability.

With the release of Midnight on the horizon, it means it's almost time for everyone to level again to 90. To help speed this up, there's a few optional consumables you can start picking up now to speed things up.

To be as prepared as possible, look to acquire at least some of the following items and enchants:

• Charged Phial of Alacrity — A Phial from Dragonflight which persists through death, giving bonus Speed for 30 minutes. If you're already geared, it's often about moving between pulls rather than a bit more damage.
• Exquisitely Eviscerated Muscle — A food item from The War Within, grants a large boost to Speed for 1 hour, but is lost on death.
• Elusive Blasphemite — If your gear has plenty of sockets, switch to this Algari Diamond and each of The War Within's gem colors for extra speed.
• Enchant Boots - Scout's March / Enchant Chest - Stormrider's Agility / Enchant Bracer - Chant of Armored Speed / Enchant Cloak - Chant of Burrowing Rapidity — Switch all of your armor enchants over to extra Speed effects if you were previously using Avoidance or Leech.
• Gunshoes — A tried and true pickup for leveling, these are always nice to have to get through areas where you can't mount, and even work across water. These can't be activated while in combat though, and are cancelled when taking damage.
• Goblin Glider Kit — These can mitigate fall damage if you end up getting dismounted or need to get down from somewhere high without the ability to use Flight Form, so are great for emergencies.

There are two options for your flask of choice depending on the situation:

• Flask of Alchemical Chaos — is slightly more RNG than the alternatives, but is a net positive in stats and also leads to stronger Tempered Potion uses, so it is recommended.
• Flask of Tempered Aggression / Flask of Tempered Mastery — Slightly weaker, but more consistent due to providing a bulk of a stat we prefer. Remember though, it leads to a weaker Tempered Potion.

You can also obtain a flask of your choice from Algari Flask Cauldrons provided by Alchemists.

Tempered Potion is your best option, and should be paired with major cooldowns and Bloodlust / Heroism. You can also obtain Fleeting Tempered Potion from Algari Potion Cauldron provided by Alchemists.

Invigorating Healing Potion is the current best healing potion. Using this has a 5-minute cooldown, but multiple can be consumed in an extended boss fight should it go on long enough. Additionally, Warlock's Healthstones do not share a cooldown with other healing consumables. Remember to use it as well if you are holding one!

As Agility is back to being the most valuable stat in Midnight, you should be eating a Feast of the Midnight Masquerade if possible. If this isn't provided by your group, stick to Beledar's Bounty personal food instead.

Your weapon enhancement consumable of choice is Algari Mana Oil for the additional Critical Strike and Haste.

In addition, if you can afford it, you should use Crystallized Augment Runes to increase your primary stat. Augment Runes are expensive, and disappear on death, so use them wisely!

You can also buy the permanent Ethereal Augment Rune once at Renown 18 with the new Season 3 K'aresh Trust faction or use the Soulgorged Augment Runes that drop from the new raid and persist through death.
