Weapon damage & Mangle

So hopefully i can ask this right...



Here's the tooltip for Mangle "Mangle the target for 412% of normal damage plus 5 and causes the target to take 30% additional damage from bleed effects for 1 min."



What's Normal Damage?
  1. weapon damage (modified by AP and enchants); or
  2. weapon damage divided by speed (and then modified by AP & enchants)?



I would think option 1, but not sure.



thanks.
 
"Weapon damage" to a druid is your autoattack in cat form, and has nothing to do with the weapon you have equipped except insofar as you get AP from its weapon dps.



As far as kitty weapons go, you ignore swing speed entirely and go for stats and max total dps. I understand there is debate about whether Lava Dredger or Riot Stick is BiS, but I don't know enough to weigh in on that myself.
 
Note that it says normal damage, and not weapon damage. Weapon damage has no factor, and i do indeed mean ZERO FACTOR at all, all feral should look at is stats and weapon dps. The weapon dps is normalized to a 1 sec attack speed we have in cat. I would suggest that you, and anyone else curious about ferals take a look at the official wow forums feral dps guide. I'll drudge up a link in a min.

It was my understanding that ferals got wep dps converted into feral ap at later levels but at this level only stats mattered. I know on my 85 druid if I'm in a feral form and I mouse over weapons they show a green text that says "x feral attack power" but on my 19 druid there is nothing. My account is down at the moment though so I will defer to people who can check.

Good point.



I forgot the skill patch was also rewarded from the riot stick quest.



This thread is now moot.
