PTR Feral spell changes.

[Sarmlery]

Hello, I'm here to tell you some changes that will be happening to feral in Shadow Lands. As the level squish is setting us Free to plays and Vets back to level 10. *Note none of this is set to stone officially?*

Spells
Here's what we lost.
Prowl, Tiger's Fury, Rip, Thrash, Aquatic Form, Growl, Revive, Teleport: Moonglade.
We also lost Feral instincts the passive due to losing to prowl. As well as the ability
to moon fire in cat form as level 10 means no talents, which means no Lunar Inspiration
What we gain
Entangling Roots, Wrath, and Mastery: Razor Claws ( a passive that increases the damage
done by your cat form bleed abilities and finishing move.)

I'm sorry I could not provide any more information, as I just installed the beta, but I hope this information helps.

Ouch. No Prowl or TF? RIP.

Rdruid kit legit looks good and fun at 10

It's got a lot of healing. I'm not sure gaining roots is worth losing swiftment / Lifebloom, but it's definitely not going to be weak. The mastery alone is an extremely nice addition, even relative to other masteries.

swiftmend was a class breaking ability. Losing it while gaining roots and substantial bite dmg takes rdruid from lolbrokenbullshit to quality support healer. Good shit, as far as im concerned.

I think they're probably at the top of the healer tier list, still. Assuming level 10 - obviously no clue as far as level 20 goes, as of yet.

I don’t think feral mastery outweighs the sheer bonus damage of resto.

If the kits are the same minus the bleed, resto cat > feral cat imo.

I agree with you on this. But the feral dream will never die.

I don't know if this is still a thing but last time I checked Feral was fucking nutty hitting 1k crits like they normally do
Using this as a basis and assuming it stays like this I don't think TF or Prowl are gonna stop feral from being a stupidly good spec

i would trade off 9% damage nerf and no stealth, (aka no longer a bitch), for roots any day

Def, coming from a rogue main I really hate having no stealth but that root looks like so much fun
the Damage is kinda sad tho but I think feral is gonna get tuned right to do decent damage without the damage buff

Worst trade of all time tbh wtf?

It is a sucky trade-off honestly but they gave us probably the fairest trade out of all. Id take the root from anything else other than wild charge (one can only hope)

nah man roots are fucking hot

losing stealth to get a cast time root that some idiot like me is gonna break in half a second because theyre just mashing dps buttons? i dunno man.

stealth for a rogue is needed because of lack of self heals, but for feral it isnt as mandatory because of the sheer survivability.
no stealth isnt as bad as people think lol
