Which do you hate moar: Feral or Brewmaster?

And why? I feel like people either absolutely HATE one or the other with a fiery passion, or they claim that both are only played by mouth breathers and they have no problem killing them (which I don't think anyone really believes, but oh well). What do you think?
 
I have a pretty "bleh" opinion of both specs, but personally I'd rather go against a feral than a BM. I can potentialy outmaneuver and bring down a feral, although it's not likely. Brewmaster, I can blow everything I've got just in time for guard to come off cooldown again. If I don't outrun a brewmaster eventually he's gonna catch me :p

There are good players who happen to have ferals and brewmasters, but playing those ferals and brewmasters are certainly the LAST thing that makes them decent. I tend to think of having either spec as a flaw which can possibly be overlooked.
 
Feral, a BM can't crit you for 4k+. Yeah BM can spam bubble every 30 secs for their hp doubling it. You can survive a BM long enough to get to help or what no in a bg. Whereas when You face a feral that's a 29 Twink you get stunned and in stun time of 3 seconds they have enough power to kill you. You can't run from a feral cause if u do they just leap on u. U can kite a BM all day.
 
Both classes are just broken but which one is worse depends on the class you are playing. A hunter, for example, will say feral but, as a shaman, BMs are definitely worse. At least I have chance of winning against a feral. There is no chance whatsoever against a BM with my ele unless there is a cliff nearby. I don't even bother trying to fight back and just straight up heal in order to at least keep the BM occupied until I run out of mana and die. So sad how many ferals and BMs I see on my team actually think they are good lol....pathetic is more like it.

Perplex
 
I'm sorry what classes are you playing/what BMs are you facing that you can "just kite"? Unlimited range slow, 2 rolls, and a 60% speed boost that also removes slows?
 
Both. But I hate BM more. I can at least 1v1 a feral on my warrior sometimes
 
I'm going to have to say Feral. My main 29 is an Rdruid (FC), and I can agree that even as resto druids should not be able to hit as hard as they do. However, Feral is on another level. Mechanically, they are able to lock you for a short period and deal a potentially lethal amount of damage within said time-frame. You then combine their mechanics with available gear and enchants, which equals a world of hurt. There is no other class capable of hitting the numbers that Ferals can, and I'm not just talking about Ferocious bite. Shred can easily crit for 1100+, and they can get 2 or 3 of those off in a row before the bite even comes in. They have amazing mobility, decent healing capabilities, and if you're playing a Night-elf, re-stealthing is just icing on the cake as they can double-lock you. For me, as an FC (primarily), it's a nightmare. The stacks pile up in WSG and that's GG if a feral catches you...
Yes, BM is OP, but I don't think they're as much of a pain. In order to maximise their bubble, they stack AP & sacrifice HP. Because of this, more often than not, I see BM's get dropped by range before they can get guard up. Not to mention, BM's cant sneak up on you, stun you for 3 seconds, or burst away into a stealth. Their healing is hard-cast (for the majority), unlike Ferals who can insta-Healing Touch after a finisher.

I can't ever justify speccing Feral for PvP purposes. It feels too cheap. I can however validate playing a BM, as range DPS can easily take you down if you're without a healer. Obviously, the opinions are scattered on this. I see the validity in both arguments, but I suppose my bias extends from being crit for over 7.5k (WHILST I'm in bear form... with stacks ofc) by Ferals; a feat that BM's aren't capable of doing...
 
when i see someone play feral or bm only, in 29, it makes me convinced thats the only way they as players were able to produce some level of success in 20-29

Are you sure you aren't thinking of something else? BM's don't come to mind when thinking of "kitable specs".

Powershift out of every barrel? dash.. pretty easy
A feral just wild charges to me and then i dash, he dashes, gg
 
With ferals, atleast I can take them down if I have trinket available. When dealing with properly geared brews who knows what they're doing however, it all comes down to proc rng. In conclusion, I find bms more of a hassle to deal with. They're not impossible though.
 
I've definitely arrived at the conclusion that BM is more pathetic. Feral actually isn't that bad to bring down as Enhance.
