Wow Dev have nerfed ferals to the ground since S1. Please revert some of the aoe nerfs. Our Aoe is second lowest beating the Aug but is that something to brag about? Our ST isn’t good unless you go all ST which no one will do for m+. The buffs doesn’t have to move us from Tier F to Tier S buff, but make it so this class can compete for the 0.1% title. Instead of being +15% lowest aoe damage from the top, we will be happy with ~5-7%.
Right now, I am playing as an extra affix when I do keys for any team that plays with me basically. I even go out of my way to not pick up any ferals when I’m tanking. You Wow Devs have made me a monster and a racist to my own kind.

This druid speaks the truth.
To even begin to compete with the damage (much less survivability and party utility) of the havocs, outlaws, and rets Feral would need a 15-20% damage buff in m+.
The form I’d like to see this done with is by buffing Rip, which is massive for our AOE damage but not huge for ST, but would still push Feral back up in the raid rankings just a tiny bit, accompanied by smaller buffs to our actual AOE talents. ToW would be cool if either got some of its conversion back and/or increased the amount of time that can convert to 5 or 6 seconds. If these were stronger, RF playstyles would fall behind so it’d need a roughly similar buff to the Rip and/or ToW buffs.
Though really I’d be happy to see anything come for feral before TWW at this point. Would be a tough sell to even play the fated season with feral in this state.

not gonna disagree 
truth …
guessing devs are ok with this as boomkin is in a-tier… so there is a viable choice?
i dunno. overall, feral is fun and totally playable to low 20s… so ‘good enough’ for most ?
i switched to my dh for keys… and really enjoying it.
if feral keeps taking a beating because of boomie it feels like this next decade is boomies time to be d tier while feral is not a dumpster fire
