![]() ![]() Here is an example of a very good agility stacking feral. Grind out as much PvP gear as you can and use the Titan-forged Rune of Determination to help increase your ap if you need it. Gearing this way is simple since you just stack agility on PvP gear and use PvE offset pieces that have agil on them(rings, cloak, neck, possibly a set piece if your gear is lacking). With this you can stack more resil since PvP gear has a massive amount of agility on it. This is a good way to go still, especially in 3's and 5's. You need around 8000 AP in cat form(skill dependent) now to be able to perform over the 1600 rating range.Īgility stacking for more stable dps thru bleed damage. ![]() There are many ways to stack armor pen, and it really depends on what gear you have available. It's nearly priceless when you can push armor pen soft cap in a PvP setting/gearing. This is why I put emphasis on telling you, Grim Toll is an amazing trinket for feral PvP. PvE gear with hit rating on it will still have agility, and possibly crit, while PvP gear with hit rating on it has no agility or crit on it, only straight AP, resil, and a lot of stam, which isn't the greatest for feral. While you are grinding heroics, do the heroic daily and get Idol of Mutliation with 25 Emblem of Triumph. The hit rating allows you to stack more crit out of your cloak and/or neck slots, so I prefer Grim Toll. Run Naxx 25 until you get it, otherwise use NEC. You need to stay as close to 164 hit rating (5%) as you can, and Grim Toll is an incredible trinket for the PvPing feral. My personal recomendation, is to stay above 800-900 resil(I stay around 844 in current gear) as you mix and match your gear. If you want to stay away from raids and heroics, try the crafted chest. The extra run speed is what gives you the advantage in most fights as feral dps has always been shred based, and that doesn't change in PvP.Īfter the 4 set bonus, a piece of PvE gear with armor pen on it is a great addition. I recomend keeping the 4 set bonus from PvP gear. You need to have an armor pen proc trinket in order to get away with stacking armor pen. You have to mix in PvE gear, and therefore reduce your resil. The benefit to armor pen is you have massive direct damage against non plate and plate wearers. That' a very large bit of burst you lose with agil stacking. Why would I recommend Armor Pen over agility? You get an extra 8-12k worth of burst during your pounce. If you have an offensive dispel on your team this route is also viable, but keep in mind, it's pretty tough to play and you'll have points in a match that feel like you aren't doing any damage. If you like dueling, armor pen helps a lot for massive direct burst. Gear has always been a mix and match depending on what is available to you. You have less survivability as you mix in PvE gear, around 2-5 pieces, to get enough armor pen on your gear to make it worth it, and you need an Armor Pen proc trinket to go with your gear. However, stacking a few PvE pieces and having around 200-250 armor pen on gear does help offset resil a bit for your direct damage.Īrmor Penetration- Less consistent, more bursty, and requires a lot of AP(at the very least a very good weapon). Take note, the buff for this talent IS Dispellable! If you are fighting a priest/shaman, Use this instantly or it WILL get dispelled.Īgility- More consistant damage thru bleeds and quicker CP generation. Being able to throw control out instantly against these control teams is a very big step in the right direction! This is huge for helping ferals CC, especially when you have a DK or rogue on you and standing in human form casting cyclone is a very vulnerable state. The second, and biggest buff since 3.0 came out, is Predatory Strikes. This is a very good buff IMO and puts us in line with all the other snares of the game. ![]() Our energy reserves are rather small, so having to stack twice to slow people back down to our speed was pretty terrible. Having Infected wounds proc off one hit instead of 2 is a big step. I have over 50% crit in cat stacking full armor pen, so I'm not complaining. The nerf to armor pen does hurt, but I believe it's still advantageous to stack armor pen. With the change to resilience and the nerf to reduce Feral output in raid, which was mainly cosmetic in the higher tiers of gear, armor pen works better for massive direct burst.Īfter 3.2.2, we have 2 buffs, along with one nerf. After 3.2, agility just doesn't cut it if your looking for massive burst damage. Feral is one of the most challenging PvP specs around, but is quite viable in many cases. ![]()
