I never played it, and i always wanted a stealth cat form. Are they hard to play ? Are they good in mythic dungeons? Let me know thank you.
Unfortunately kind of clunky (due to TWW changes) and a bit complex but talents can be moved around to reduce some of it, one of the major hurdles is probably going to be wrapping your head around Snapshotting your DoTs, which is something only Feral has at this point
They do pretty great M+ damage though due to their effectively uncapped AoE with Primal Wrath for example
Snapshotting exists so yes.
No, and yes.
I’ve been playing guardian and Feral on my druid since cataclysm and I can tell you that once you’re familiar with the rotation, it’s very similar to playing a rogue. You’re building up your dots and then executing it full. based on your talent tree and your preferred place style you may want to mess with it just a bit to figure out how to build your dots and then what you’re finishing move is going to be after those dots are there.
They aren’t hard to play per se.
They are hard to master. But that comes with practice and understanding. Tbh I would look up a guide so you aren’t going in completely blind.
I can’t speak for mythics , but pve isn’t bad if you have like the rake talent , which is like an aoe, so you pretty much three hit non elite npc’s and aoe the garbage and make quick work out of a world quest.
I recommend having a pole arm equipped with some crit chance, which seems to have better stats than staves.
You are in luck. If they keep it the way the PTR is, the one button rotation for feral parses better than anyone but the top players can achieve.
I was kind of wondering what was going to happen with that on a class/spec that doesn’t necessarily need to be hitting the GCD timer every single cast in the first place, that’s crazy if that’s the case
Huge myth that feral is complicated to play. Snapshots has turned into this buzzword that makes people think it’s insanly complicated to play but you can largely ignore snapshotting and lose only around 2% damage, if you want to master snapshotting then downloading a bleedtracker weakaura is pretty mandatory, then you just follow the numbers. Feral in keys is extremly simple. The only complicated part is when you get to the super min maxxing single target rotation but i wouldn’t worry about that if you’re new to the spec.
This! If you’re wanting to be in the top push groups and getting the best parses then yes it is tough… if you just wanna pick up and do really well that you can learn quickly.
The loss of a few percentage points won’t matter unless you’re cutting edge of content, and anyone who is at that point is not asking wow forums for advice
