Feral 11.2 Rework - when?

You can massively change Frost DK and do nothing for Cat.

Amazing.

What’'s wrong with feral?

For a more streamlined rotation all they have to do is get rid of snapshotting, then remove Brutal Slash and Blood Talons. Tiger’s Fury could also get the Thistle Tea treatment to remove another keybind, but i think it’s not really necessary.

Well they removed Tiger’s fury reset and they took our attack range, leaving us with nothing in their place.
We got two new talents in TWW that literally nobody uses.
Don’t you remember the first months of The War Within?
Feral Druid’s play rate was abysmal, they had to buff it, buff it and then buff it again for people to start playing it.
Feral was just made boring, left in the gutter.

Nothing wrong with either of those two talents. But Swipe is 100% dead for AoE content which blows mega chunks.
Issue is no Bite refreshing Rips below 25%.
Issue is all you do is Bite, Bite, Bite, gets boring and tedious.
Why did Ret keep their 20y melee range but Feral, whose had it since Vanilla, lost their 5y? Devs are just awful.
Tiger’s Fury needs GCD reduction and Zerk/Incarn needs the same and need buffs.
Being able to get multiple Apex procs instantly and only ever use one.
Energy and Haste talents are decent but not great.
Why doesnt Double Clawed Rake function for Lunar Inspiration and give 2 Moonfires?

Adaptive Swarm is mega boring and Convoke doing healing spells isnt fun for a DPS player.

I really miss Tear Open Wounds from Dragonflight. The Primal Wrath reapplication playstyle was way more fun than just bite bite bite. Tedious AF.
If I wanted to I cud reroll to Arms Warrior and spam Execute.

brutal slash is clunky, swipe unplayable

brutal slash only there to compensate the slow energy reg, wish they just buff energy reg to some extend or nerf the energy cost of bite/swipe.

and this + healing spells what dont even actually heal.

Meh I don’t see enough wrong with feral for it needing a rework, a buff to regrowth healing would be nice but i think in terms of gameplay its in a very good spot at the moment and the new tier sets looks very cool and interesting

you realise this would cause us to bite more right? which you labeled biting as “boring”

Single worse suggestion I’ve ever seen

No it doesn’t why would you give a class that doesn’t use something every gcd an effect that reduces their gcd :man_facepalming:, also berserk is already insanely good and is a large part of our damage it does not need a buff.

Because it was essentially a maintenance buff that provided very little in terms of gameplay similar to how everyone hated pressing slice and dice constantly on rogue.
Not sure why people have this fixation on swipe, Brutal slash has always been the more interesting option if you want to spam swipe on aoe maybe try out feral in mop i guarantee you will get bored instantly

They need to make Rampant Ferocity trigger all vines fr it’d complement the new tier set so well.

They also need to make bleed strength trackable through default UI.

Those are the ‘reworks’ I’d do to current feral, really, the gameplay itself is good and fun. (also aura buff by +100% thanks)

Zerk isnt good. Its a wet noodle if what it used to be. And Incarn is even worse. 1 Re-stealth opportunity down from 3 in BFA?
Its a sh!te 2-3min in a spec that doesnt really need a big CD.
Design spec around TF.

I’d have Bite refreshing Rip and less procs as execute than what we got now - just mindnumbingly spamming it.

You know, we all have different opinions, there’s not just yours. Grow up.

missing already the old feral 4set… was a good time
