Whats a good feral Rotation?
1. Build up 5 combo points Rake.
2. Build up 3 Combo points.
3.Pop tigers fury and get 2 more points
4.Ferocious bite
or Change step 1's rake with Savage roar, but instead of 5 CP maybe only 3?
For an EFC, with heals

Idk im new to Feral, never really tried playing it

Mangle, savage roar, rake, shred, tiger' fury, shred, rip, wait, wait, (prolly can do some offheals or roots during this time) rake, shred, shred, savage roar, wait (again with the off heals/roots) tiger's fury, rake, shred, shred, pause, shred, pause, shred, ferocious bite.

Or something like that lol. Playing feral is all about thinking several seconds into the future. Keep bleeds up! Keep savage roar up! shred as much as possible, as it is buffed when the target is bleeding. Only use Ferocious Bite if you are certain to score the killing blow, otherwise you are better served by using savage roar if the target dies before you can FB, or Rip to keep the bleeds going.

Ferals ARE capable of very good burst, evidenced by the SS above, but are actually designed more towards sustained damage. After all, feral is the only true physical DoT spec in the game. (Rogue poisons can be cleansed. Bleeds not so much.)

LoL, that's crazy nice crit Hucklberry. Playing feral before this patch wasn't fun at all because I just found myself to be way to squishy to deal significant damage and stay alive. Does anyone have some good macros? I haven't used any macros on my first 2 toons but it seems like they would be more needed playing a feral druid so I am going to have to learn.

shred dose a crazy amount of damage with full bleads but its hard to use effectively, for example the bust use of shred in theory is with savage roar and after you have applied full bleads, after full bleads pop tigers fury and shred as they run for the hills. sure ferals are a little squishy (gotta love a lil pocket healing from gelly though <3) but if your up against something with alot of damage, like a sv hunter for instance, go balls deep pop everything to get a full rip and rake with tigers fury and savage roar and then use your enviroment and druid skills to kite them whilst your bleads do there work, even if u die before the hunt dose u can die happy because with those bleads he is destined for the GY too. in this patch especialy it has become more uesfull to aply rip instead of using FB, even against healers where in 5.2 a big crit was the only way to down them
<3 feral atm but really want infected wounds and lasarate, i may get some hate for this but i would swap them for ferocious bite?
 
Tbh I think feral's are good but they don't own, atleast from a hunters perspective as from me although I died in feral ticks a few days ago when I had 750 hp.
 
so took this as a challenge

rallying call of the dragons layer + 23,33 attack power and 23,33% crit
crystal of ferocity + 10 attack power
elixir of minor agility +12 agility
bezerking + 30% increased damage
legacy of the emperor + 5% all stats
furious howl +5% crit
savage roar +40% damage delt
tigers fury +30% damage delt

debufs used on restro druid with 40% resili and 634 armour
brutal assault + 100% damage taken
ravage + 4% damage taken
armour rip - 12% armour
sunder armour -12% armour

now i win?
OH MY GOD ! O.O
hows is it even possible
 
5.3 ferals can certainly kill stuff, but personally I'd find the play style extremely boring. SR, Rake, 5cp Rip, TF, 5cp FB, dead target or repeat sequence until dead. That's the crux of it. How boring. Feral is going to be one of those specs that people choose to play when they can't kill anything without crutching on 1.5k crits :p

alot of the time, especialy when against other dps classes like hunters and wariors the play stile is verry different to what u described with dots doing 70% of the damage, FB is all fun and nice but if you really want to put the preasure and damge into a hpally or shaman then its a more dot related rotation.
 
i'm not trying to be a dick, but considering the fact that a druid has to push *another* button five times before they push the FB button, i'm pretty sure that they aren't a one button wonder. yes, 5 pt FB hits very hard. but this isn't prot war circa 5.2 pressing the loludead shieldslam button for 1550 crit every six seconds.
