I’m sorry, but it’s time to nerf Feral Druids

I know this post likely won’t gain much traction, and people will probably just think/say " oh look another QQ Feral thread", but Feral plain and simple needs a nerf at this point.

The buff was too much.

Meh complex unforgiving rotation is being rewarded appropriately, I don’t see a problem.

The buff may have been more than they had specifically planned on, but a nerf? Are Feral Druids suddenly stronger than Death Knights, Rogues and Warlocks?

Yes actually, they are on par DPSwise but with better utility.

What do you mean by “on par”?

For every buff…

Meanwhile Shadow Priest’s complex unforgiving rotation is not being rewarded appropriately.
Haste scaling on Shadow Word: Pain would already be a 5-10% throughput increase for the top Shadow Priests, and then we can move towards rewarding their rotation by making them noticeably better than simpler casters such as Mages or Demonology Warlocks.

spriest is not “complex unforgiving” in the slightest lmao

keep 2 dots up (swp auto refreshes with mf), use mb/swd on cd, mind flay filler

wow so complex

Keep 2 bleeds up, use shred as filler, press your 60 energy button.

Wow so complex.

Look I can do this too.

It’s the only DPS spec Priest has and a small 5-10% damage increase through haste scaling on SW:P would be welcome for it to remain competitive.

They also have to keep savage roar up while also weaving in bites efficiently. I’m not saying it takes a genius to play Feral but it does have one of the highest skill ceilings for a classic class just beside Aff lock

All of the excuses and rationalizations apply to Shadow Priests as well an yet nothing is done about their performance.
It’s only fair they get a 5-10% buff too.

And noone cares if SP get a buff as well.

Go start your own thread about the issues SP have like people have been doing for feral.

There were several since WotLKC launch, nothing was even acknowledged.
And all that was asked for is haste scaling on SW:P for a minor dps increase.

people arguing for balance on a 15 year old wow nostalgia iteration

So go start another thread about it and see what traction it gets.

/shrug at this point blizzard has made it clear that #nochanges isn’t remotely relevant for wrath classic.

feral bleed damage was ridiculous even back in 2010

They do as much DPS as the top DPS specs right now. They are within the top 4 on everything except for specific caster fights Hodir and Veizax as well as Kologarn because no back to shred.
