@Ndriukas19 some are lower gear, some are similar gear. Its not the point of movie thou, gear should not really matter. This is movie over year old so now damage would be lot higher if i would redo the movie.
@ProPkerTheWar i think only normal ppl? who the hell can listen to a repeating drum rythm, taking 30 mins long, without anything, then after 60 mins a bass starts doin' a single note in the entire song, then another 60 mins of drums... how can ppl dance on that? this is normal music -_-;
nice clip. have some of you guys checked out the wow cheats pack at warcraftbotsXinfo (replace X with .) ? it is incredible, i recently down loaded it. it's got totally everything inside it, gold guides, bots, hacks, glitches as well as the new arena glitch. i perhaps shouldn't tell folks about this but at the very least it gives you all a fair chance to obtain it before i pwn you all
Hi, great video! I tried the link to your armory but it doesn't show you, in fact I can't find you though I would really like to see your talent spec! Keep representing us feral's! (even though your ally I can deal) :p
@taucarlos1 Thx, I changed server and faction after this movie so I updated them now. I keep changing specs quite often to play on different ladders so might be that I am not using the spec what i used on this movie at the time you check the armory.
@Sint66 Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Alliance for the win!! But you play in the same pool like my Horde Hunter. It's a pitty we can't play together, I play on a German server. :'(
have you guys seen the brand new rogue hack that will let you cheat in arena? its awesome, my rogue is now in complete arena pvp equipment 2200 rating! i dont actually really want to talk about this but what the hell.. you can get it at wowcheatsYnet (replace Y with . ) however dont tell too many people!
How the fuck did you do that at the end? that was epic! can somebody please tell me how he did that? im a 66 balance druid now but i was planning to respec to feral at 70ish GOD that was epic
what in the hell was this SHIT?! O MY FUCKING GOD im gonna restart playing on my lvl 42 cat. WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS DMG? i mean no offence but gear aint BEST u have no wrathful offset which i have it on my all 80's but u have instead full relent set and i have furious. its like the same...pretty arena starting gear.5/5 great vid!!!
omg , first time im watching your videos and they're great dude ! instant subscribtion :D btw nice mount :P really love it to bad i couldnt get my hands on 1 ( the amani war bear)
my cyclones + roots + hibernates about never gets resisted, thats the reason why. Without spell penetration and hit cap change to resist cyclone cast on same target is quite high 5% from hit and if target has motw which is 75 nature resists it causes quite high persentage of misses without spell penetration.
Hey sint, i finally decided to force a shred spec upon me, it's definitly the way to go.. bursting with my rogue partner hasn't been easier.. i can actually kill healers now >.>
Sint, i love ur vids. they are all extrodinary done and music blends in with the OP-ness. have u ever tried playing 2v2 with a resto shaman? and what server do u play on?^^
Nice video, enjoyed it. Might even level my Grand Marshal Feral druid from vanilla. Was this filmed before or after the feral dps nerf. I believe in 3.1 some time.
Really nice video :P but feral seems a bit OP in wotlk. I played feral druid through whole TBC just PvPing or tanking heroics :P I remember how I was full s1 with pvp acessories (or how it spells) and pwning s2/s3 people in 1v1 :P it was awesome, like 90% of all druids were resto back then :D 5/5
Ferals have been good on 1v1 for a long time, I played feral on tbc as well and have 2 pvp movies from that time as well(not so good my first ones). And now when we got instant nature spell procs its even better in 1v1. Can't say that ferals are op in 3v3 thou. One of feral weaknesses is that peps can stun you in caster form when you cast instant cyclones for example then you take loads more damage.. But yeh have some changes at least against every class with same gear in duels.
Feral was hard to play in TBC. We had no fucking slow effect so every single class could just run around and kite us, so annoying! But I had experience in my class and I knew really how to PvP back then as a feral. Too bad I didnt have fraps so I could fraps some and put out on youtube. Back then feral was the worst dps of all classes - now theyre one of the better :)
hea m8 i play feral druid and i just cant seem to hit for what u do yes i dont have great gear maby thats y but i know how to play feral i love raping people. i use rip when i get 5 combo points. can u give me any tips m8??? thanks
really high crits man , i believe you mentioned in the description this is the T1 2nd talent 5/5 skill for the 15% ferocius bite chance , whats the tree gonna look like in that and is it worth on medium feral gear , 6400 fap, 44crit , hit capped ? as a bg spec or arena
i added link for the spec in more info. yeh spec should work on lower gear to some potent as well, since you get +25% crit to FB when you got bleed on, so be sure that you have rake on at least when using fbs.
its on wowinterface now. Direct link can be found on more info. If you just want to see addon list there is addons used picture which shows every one of them.
Think of all the druids in the world. Now think what is the percentage of ferals out of druids (in terms of pvp). Yeah, that's right, no need to nerf.
This movie is for entertainment only, you should not think it showing how feral really is, since it doesn't show it. My gear for PVP is best possible atm, and that vs low geared opponents is the result shown on this movie. It took about 200 gigs of raw material to get footage for this movie so thats quite a lot. Every class can do this imo.
Shred just doesn't seem to work for me, could it be my connection and framerate?
Cause i can never seem to get behind my opponent :(
a rogue warrior pally dk will never let me get behind them!, shapeshifting to remove there slow effect blows the global cooldown and they usually reapply the snare :(
You can try mangle spec, my spec currently is mangle spec, liking it quite a lot in 3v3 at least. So no need to care about getting behind target. And can focus on other things more. Ofc you don't get much big crits there but at least its decent burst to hit around 5 mangles in row with tiger's fury.
Okey i dont know what bererking talent does but i acctually think that if you crit 16k in pvp while wearing pvp gear you should get nerfed... but that is Blizzards problem, and you definently know how to play so nothing against you ;)
Other than that i thought it was awesome! very fun to watch :)
Hi there sint, i been watching all ur pvp videos and meh i gotta love them as i play feral druid aswell. i play fera/rogu at patch 3.1.0 about 1.8k rating but i cant find out any good partner now since holy pally feral wont work. Could u give me any tips. Oh keep it up good work :)
Yo, I think feral + mage should work fine. and best healer with feral is imo disc priest. disc+feral is not so hard combo as well, you just need to help the priest to survive quite often.

BUT!..... I don't do anywhere near as much damage.. seems all my damage comes from bleeds, none from raw damage like your druid is doing :S

Pounce>Mangle(till 4 points)>tigers fury>rake>rip>Bear
in bear i'd mangle and maul and fairie fire till the rips got about 5 seconds left..
then either blow, bash or barkskin and cat it out to restack the bleeds, i rinse and repeat this and it actually beats most plate wearers
for arms warriors use barkskin when they bladestorm I actually go cat while they bladestorm to stack bleeds XD since they can't stun/parry/dodge
as long as i barkskin they can't crit me
