It’s really not their loss if they don’t invite a feral druid.
Well I guess that’s your loss for playing Feral Druid 
Play what you want to play, but I guess live with the consequences ;).
PS. I’d invite a feral druid if I knew they were a good player.
Resto shaman has been S tier for m+ this whole expansion.
The OP is talking about dps shaman. Did you read the post?
That statement was powerful and delicious.
You’d 100% take another class when it would come down to it.
I hate tier lists, I’ve seen plenty of not so great performances from “S” specs, and made friends with amazing players who’ve been playing “D” specs. Take the person, not the class.
I sometimes wonder, wouldn’t tuning classes faster & more frequently throughout a tier essentially invalidate tier lists? Who would bother rerolling to a “meta” spec if it received adjustments every ~3 weeks or so?
Same for PvP - if classes were tuned more regularly, you probably wouldn’t see a 15%+ gap in representation between the top and bottom classes…
I don’t think we would like to get playstyle changes every couple of weeks. I am playing a class based on that. I don’t want to find out every 3 weeks my class is not fun to play anymore.
Would small changes in numbers really make your class unfun to play though? Surely that’d only be the case if you picked it because it was a “meta” class?
Well at least now some classes/specs can be terrible for whole expansions. Much better than having it change a little every few weeks
I played with 12 different feral druids during S2. Some were good, some were horrible. Would I another class over feral if I don’t know the feral? Yeah. Would I pick one of the good ferals I’ve played with over a random mage/rogue? Hell yeah. It has nothing to do with the spec and everything to do with the player behind the class.
I never picked a class because it is meta. I played whole legion resto shaman where i was not allowed in any pug, and i played whole bfa till now holy paladin. In bfa it was only resto druid.
But for this season wings got bigtime nerfed with the cooldown reduction on it in mind with the tier set. And that is all for raiding. I play M+. My class is basically destroyed so i move back to my old main resto shaman. I can’t help it last season hpala was quite meta, and s1 and this season probably resto shaman.
But i do not choose my spec on meta. I am going to alt on mistweaver and holy priest too. I played last season also mistweaver. Unfortunately Mistweaver got hit by the class changes too 
If that venthyr change was not made i probably would have mained mistweaver this season despite shaman being the meta.
And what is the reason for this, do you think ? Because Blizzard haven’t been looking at feral at all and just left us in the dust, not to mention our massive nerf on our tierset, AND this statement, bear in mind, I don’t blame you, is the exact way PuGs work.
Now, wouldn’t you rather take that good player that played feral, and instead put that good player on a good class that can be pushed much farther and better ?
You would, any day of the week, you don’t need to deny it, because I as a feral player even feel so, even if I am ”Good”, I could play another overpowered class, like mage, or rogue, and get 100% more out of my gameplay.
I’d rather he played a class he enjoyed because he’s most likely to perform better then and not hate every second he plays. It’s a game after all and I’d much more play with people that enjoy playing.
Then you’re one in a million.
I honestly hate how Blizzard keeps neglecting feral over and over and over again, we have been stuck with the same conduit/soulbind/legendary/talents ever since 9.0, well, okay, it changed when covenant legendary released, but thats about it, but if we even think about going other covenants, or talents, even the mere thought reduces our output to jack.
Meanwhile ret is bottom tier in m+ all seasons and middle of the pack in raids.
but ret is op. and when you stack them its unfair…
Imagine a group a Guardian druid tank and 4 ret paladins. no healer needed at all.
yes u will lack BL. but there is DRums!. now imagine those ppl dieing on rotations to buff each others dmg. and instant ress by the tank.
Not just a loyalist… but a Sylvanas loyalist!
i kid i kid… or do i??
