Post 16: Miscellaneous Information

The Druid's class-defining ability is shapeshifting. A Feral Druid is a Druid that concentrates on making his or her shapeshifted forms as effective as possible. The definition varies but there are basically two types of Druids that call themselves Feral:

* "Pure Feral" involves ekeing out every last bit of utility in forms. This means focusing on Str/Agi/Sta, loading up on feral talents, and generally playing as a substitute for a Warrior or a Rogue with the ability to shift into an emergency caster.

* "Feral Hybrid" changes back and forth as necessary, and therefore can make use of all five stats (although exact playstyles vary, Str/Sta/Int are definite wants). An example of this type of Feral Druid is the PvP-oriented "Swift" build that includes Swiftshifting, Feline Swiftness, and Nature's Swiftness for maximum versatility.

This aims to be a complete list of high-level equipment that may be of interest for a Feral Druid. In the current state of itemization, most leather armor is "Rogue armor" (physical stats) or "Druid armor" (caster stats). All four of the Druid sets (Wildheart, Cenarion, Stormrage, Haruspex) are caster gear that is useless to us. Feral Druids have to cobble together a personal kit of random blue items with the stats that we like. This is both a blessing and a hindrance. We can tailor our stats completely to our tastes, but do not get a set bonus. We can choose based on appearance and will never look like near-clones of one another (as many classes including caster Druids often do), but kit-bashing can also result in a walking fashion disaster. As long as Blizzard sees fit to make Druid sets all caster-oriented, we may as well look on the bright side and enjoy our individuality.

(As a set, Shadowcraft is decent but too low on attack power since unlike Rogues we can not concentrate solely on Agility at the expense of Strength. As a matter of etiquette, if you are with Rogues please pass on SC pieces or at least ask if it is okay to roll! It is their set, and there are better options for us in most slots. Any other leather with physical stats is fair game, but let them have SC if they need it.)

Str: Strength. 1 Str = 2 Attack Power (Atk). 14 Atk is about 1 DPS.
Agi: Agility. 1 Agi = 2 Armor (AC). At level 60, about 0.05% crit and 0.05% dodge, or 20 Agi for 1%. As of 1.7, 1 Agility adds 1 Attack Power for Cat Form only.
Sta: Stamina. 1 Sta = 10 Health.
Int: Intellect. 1 Int = 15 Mana, 0.01% Spell Crit.
Spi: Spirit. 15+(Spirit/5) Mana regeneration every two seconds. Also affects Health regeneration out of combat.

Other mods:

+x% Crit: Directly raises critical hit rate with melee attacks.
+x% Hit: Raises chance to land a successful hit with melee attacks.
+x% Dodge: Raises chance to dodge.
+x% Parry, +x% Block: Not applicable to Druids at this time. Unless the other mods on an item are very compelling, ignore.
Atk: Some equipment raises Attack Power directly. Unless you have Strength of the Wild x Atk is the same as x/2 Str.
Def: Defense skill. For us, 1 Defense = +0.04% Dodge, +0.04% chance to be missed, -0.04% chance to be crit by attackers.

SP: Spell Power. "Increases damage and healing done by magical spells and effects by up to X." Sometimes called focus.
+x% SpCrit: Raises critical hit rate for spells.

AR: Arcane resistance. Mages, Druids.
FR: Fire resistance. Mages, Warlocks. Also very useful in parts of the Molten Core and Blackwing Lair.
FrR: Frost resistance. Mages, Shamans.
NR: Nature resistance. Druids, Shamans. Also very useful in Maraudon and presumably Ahn'Qiraj.
SR: Shadow resistance. Warlocks, Priests (of the face-melting variety).

Since we can not cast any spells in forms, Feral equipment focuses on the physical stats. There are also some very nice leather pieces that give a boost to all of your stats (Bone Ring Helm, Death's Clutch, Songbird Blouse, Wildheart Kilt, Boots of the Shrieker), which may be particularly interesting for PvPers that switch back and forth between forms more often.

In general, good choices for Bear Form include the gear with unusually high AC. Stamina is a must for tanking, of course. Strength and Agility are both useful to Bear Form, as Bear abilitie

* Note that the Alliance and Horde epic PvP pieces currently have slightly different stats. I assume it is a bug. Both rare PvP chestpieces have spell power so my guess is that the epic Alliance one is also meant to have spell power instead of attack power.

Chest Enchantments

Greater Stats (+4 to all five stats) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=20025
Stats (+3 to all five stats) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=13941
Major Health (+100 Health) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=20026
Core Armor Kit (+3 Def) http://wow.allakhazam.com/item.html?witem=18251

If Greater Stats is available on your server I think it is clearly the best choice. Otherwise, a fairly tough decision between 10 Stamina points' worth of Health which is very nice for all classes, or 15 points spread across all of your stats. In my opinion Stats is the better choice for a hybrid class like the Druid, even a full Feral build. Core Armor Kits are one means of raising Defense, but we get less benefit from Defense skill than other classes (no parry or block) and so I do believe the stats are the best choice.

Enchantments that directly raise Armor (and Leatherworkers' Armor Kits) are not multiplied by the Dire Bear bonus. 10000 Armor becomes 10040 Armor if you put on a Rugged Armor Kit. It's not worth it. It is a better idea to get high-Armor items with low stats and then make up the difference in stats with enchants.

Bracer Enchantments

Superior Strength (+9 Strength) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=20010
Superior Stamina (+9 Stamina) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=20011
Deflection (+3 Def) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=13932

Strength or Stamina, whichever you need more. I can't think of any case where Deflection would be better than 90 HP, but as with the Core Armor Kits it bears mentioning as Druids simply do not have the options that Warriors do for raising Defense skill through equipment. Maybe if there were a nice +7 Greater Deflection that would be a more viable alternative, but once again I recommend stats.

Glove Enchantments

Greater Strength (+7 Strength) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=20013
Greater Agility (+7 Agility) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=20012
Core Armor Kit (+3 Def) http://wow.allakhazam.com/item.html?witem=18251

Greater Agility is cheaper and much more readily available. It may be a choice between +7 Agi and +5 Str so unless you value Strength that much more point-for-point I would stick with Agility. Attack Speed Increase is a +1% boost, which is basically nothing. Minor Mount Speed increase is a useful but small boost; unless you routinely chase down mounts in PvP, I recommend carrying a separate pair of "riding gloves" with the riding enchant.

Boot Enchantments

Greater Agility (+7 Agility) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=20023
Greater Stamina (+7 Stamina) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=20020

Minor Speed Increase (+8% walking speed) http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?wspell=13890

Minor Speed is reported to work while shapeshifted but does not stack with any other movement bonuses (Feline Swiftness, Travel Form). My preference is for stats, and Stamina is much cheaper between these two. Mithril Spurs are also an option, but as with gloves I recommend a pair of "riding boots" and keeping stats on your main pair.

Mark of Tyranny and Smoking Heart are the two biggest Bear trinkets. Many Druids switch to Enchanting and raise skill to 265 just to make the Smoking Heart (you can drop Enchanting afterwards and continue to equip the trinket). For Cat, Blackhand's Breadth is good but I would choose the Mark of Tyranny over it. It is easier to find a substitute for offensive trinkets than for defensive since there are so few that raise Armor directly and since we take such great advantage of them. Counterattack Lodestone would be an excellent choice if we could Parry, but half of the trinket is wasted for us. Horde Druids are in luck with the wonderful Rune of the Guard Captain.

Weapon selection is a peculiar matter for Feral Druids. Unlike armor, a weapon's damage has no effect on damage while shapeshifted. Blizzard has stated that they have no desire to revise the current system, which unfortunately means that as other melee classes find new rare and epic weapons Druid damage output is left behind. This is not too bad for Dire Bear Form which can fill the Warrior's tanking role regardless, but Cat Form has a real problem as it does not come anywhere remotely close to the damage output of its parent class.

Generally higher DPS weapons have higher stats so we want stronger weapons like everyone else, but there are some real low-level gems. The Warden Staff (epic 43) is the best weapon for Dire Bear with Unyielding Maul (rare 57) close behind.

Thank goodness for the new Str/Agi enchants with the 1.6 patch! 'Chance on hit' effects (eg. Crusader, Lifestealing, Fiery, Icy, Unholy) do not proc while shapeshifted. Impact and Striking enchants that add damage per hit also do not function. Crusader was my previous choice because the buff carries over to forms if you shift after it

Beginning Quest: http://www.thottbot.com/index.cgi?q=1740
More Information on the Series: http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?wquest=5942

In Eastern Plague Lands as you come into the zone from WPL after a short way in you will see a small little bowl to the south of the road if you look on the big map, that is Darrowshire. Once you get into Darrowshire find the Inn type building. North West of that there is a ruined home. That is were you find Pamala Redpath a little dead girl who wants her dolly. You get 3 pieces of the doll (to make the doll) from inside the inn, you have to fight one guy per each item you pick up.

Once you pick up all three pieces right click one and it turns into the doll. GO back and talk to Pamela, she then sends you to find her Uncle Carlin, found at Light's Hope Chapel (Flight Path), and her auntie marlene? who is found in the inn type building near the cemetary by Uthers tomb. She send you to get a ring off a tomb in the graveyard right outside. Go to the little intersection there and it is NW from the center of the intersection just a tad. You bring that ring to cromie.

Cromie is the little gnome found in the Andorhal Inn, top floor back room, she and a night elf are back there. She sends you to another building in Andorhal (I believe) it is near the center of town by the Litch. It is a town hall type of building, long front room with pedestal/podiumn in the back, lots of books on the floor, open them until you get the Hisory of Andorhall (Name?). Each book that doesnt have it spawns 2 non-elite 56-58 ghouls. You kill one and the other dies, so focus on one.

At this point I believe you go back to Cromie, who fixes up the Book and send you back to the uncle at lights hope chapel. He gets excited about history and send you after a broken sword and a skull.

The skull is in a tiny little lake in the middle of WPL. Read the quest on this one it is VERY descriptive. The skull is at the bottom of the lake, you will see undead ghosts (Go figure that for odd) and human ghosts fighting eachother eternally. At their feet is the skill, you have to get close to even see it.

The sword is in the Pestilent/Infected scar, forget the name either way it is the DEEP one (farther from lights hope chapel). Look for a glowing little item with those same (as in the lake) non-aggressive ghosts standing around by it.

Head back to the Uncle. He then sends you after two more items. Davil Libram, and Redpath's shield. The shield is in front of a barn in some placed called Gahrron's Withering (Spelling?). As a druid you might have to kill one Mob to get it.

The Libram is in Hearthglenn Town hall. Personally Stealthing doesn't work and I have points in improved prowl. You cant get anywhere with it, they see right through. I took one paladin with me and it was NO problem. If you want you can have the paladin run in, get aggro and run out, meanwhile you wlak in loot the book and run out, the paladin uses his shield you use cat-> dash, and you're done.

Ok, so back to Uncle Carlin once again with these two new items. He is still excited about history.

I believe at this point you need to get the skulls (Resonating skulls) from Scourge Champions who fought in the battle of darrowshire, kind of cool, int he quest vengeance aspect here, the quest overall is pretty sad, the little girl doesnt even realize she is dead yet, killed by the undead. Anyway. This portion of the quest SUCKS. READ the quest again this time for the locations of the Scourge Champions. They are 58-60lvl mobs. They are found in areas surrounded by LOTS of other mobs so you do have to be careful to get single pulls.

After you turn this in you get "The Battle of Darrowshire. Get a raid group. Makes it fast. Keep your named NPCs alive, they have a blue glow. Kill the mob named guys as soon as possible. Did this with 12 people. Turn it in to pamela, the chest is behind her busted house. Loot. Woot. Done.

Notes: If you do it as a raid, make sure to disband from the raid when you talk to the spirit guy at the end. He won't give you credit until you do.

b. Dire Maul Tribute Run Information -

Base Druid Stats at Level 60

Night Elf

62 Strength
65 Agility
69 Stamina
100 Intellect
110 Spirit

*still need elf substats*

Tauren

70 Strength
55 Agility
72 Stamina
95 Intellect
112 Spirit

2124 Health
2389 Mana
120 Attack Power
110 Armor
3.65% crit
3.65% dodge

Cat Form (1.6): 57-78 @ 1.00 (67.8 DPS including 17.1 DPS from 240 Atk (70 Str))
Cat Form (1.7): 64-87 @ 1.00 (75.9 DPS including 21.1 DPS from 295 Atk (70 Str 55 Agi))

How Feral Talents work

Improved Prowl raises your stealthing ability by 3 per point. At level 60 with 5/5 IP you therefore have a "stealth factor" of 315 and are as difficult to detect as if you were level 63. This is identical to a Rogue with Master of Deception 5/5.

Predatory Strikes only affects the bonus attack power from Cat Form, not including Agility. This means that at level 60 the bonus Attack Power is raised from 120 to 144. No, five talent points for +24 Atk is not huge. Hopefully this talent will be revamped.

Strength of the Wild affects all of your Strength, including base, items, and even temporary buffs like Crusader (if it procs before you shift) and Mark of the Chosen.

Your normal Armor value is: (Agility x 2) + (items) + (enchants/armor kits)
Your Dire Bear Armor value: (Agility x 2) + (items x 4.6) + (enchants/armor kits)
With Thick Hide that becomes: (Agility x 2) + ((items x 4.6) x 1.1) + (enchants/armor kits)

How much damage reduction X Armor gives you:

X Armor reduces damage from a Level 60 attacker to 5500 / (5500+X).

5500 Armor = damage reduced to 1/2 (50% reduction in the character window)
11000 Armor = damage reduced to 1/3 (66.6% reduction, repeating of course)
16500 Armor = damage reduced to 1/4 (75% reduction, the theoretical cap)

How to Get 10000 Armor

Get a Mark of Tyranny
Get a Smoking Heart of the Mountain
Get a Ring of Protection
Get Thrall's Resolve if Horde
Get a Cloak of Warding
Get Atal'ai Spaulders
Get Slaghide Gauntlets
Get a Cloudrunner Girdle
Get good high-level blues in your other armor slots, or Volcanic gear if you are desperate for more Armor.

How Much Armor You Can Get

183 AC on Stormrage Cover, +125 for tenacity
258 AC, 18 Agi on AB shoulders
392 AC on Malfurion's Blessed Bulwark, +40 for rugged kit
122 AC on Zandalar Haruspex's Bracers
207 AC, 15 Agi on Slaghide Gauntlets of Tiger/Monkey, +40 for rugged kit
223 AC on Lava Belt
296 AC on Dark Heart Pants, +125 for tenacity
286 AC on Boots of the Shadow Flame, +7 Agi enchant

214 AC on Cloak of Warding, +70 for enchant
30 Agi on Preston's amulet
150 AC on Ring of Protection
150 AC on Thrall's Resolve
180 AC on Mark of Tyranny
150 AC on Smoking Heart

260 AC on warden staff, +15 agi with enchant
------
3117 Armor from items in caster = 14338 in dire bear, 15772 in dire bear with thick hide
400 Armor from enchants and armor kits
280 Armor from 140 Agility

current unbuffed maximum possible = 16452 Armor (74.95% damage reduction)
improved mark 5/5 adds 416 armor including the increased agility for a total of 16868 (75.41% DR).
unless anyone can think of anything else :)

[bCombat[/b]

All "chance on hit" effects work normally while shapeshifted EXCEPT those on weapons. This means that Darkmoon Faire cards, Red Whelp Gloves, Green Whelp Armor, etc, all work normally.

With 300 weapon skill against 300 Defense (ie level 60 Druid against level 60 enemy), your base critical hit rate is 5%, adjusted for Druids' low Agility (Tauren 3.65%, Night Elf should be 4.15% but unconfirmed). Your miss rate is also 5%. Crit rate is modified by your Agility, equipment, and the Sharpened Claws talent. Reducing the miss rate can only be done through equipment.

Critical hit rate is a percentage of your total swings, not just the hits. 5% crit and 5% misses means that 5% of your swings will be crits, not 5% of the 95% that hit (which would be slightly lower).

Each extra point of Defense (whether from equipment or a higher-level defender) does the following:

+0.04% chance for defender to dodge
+0.04% chance for defender to parry (n/a for Druids)
+0.04% chance for defender to block (n/a for Druids)
+0.04% chance for attacker to miss
-0.04% chance for attacker to crit

Defense is also supposed to reduce the chance of being hit with a crushing blow and/or increase the chance of being hit with a glancing blow in PvE, but this is still being tested.


Itemization Formula: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.aspx?FN=wow-dungeons&T=143561&P=1

As a general rule, between two items of equal rarity and level the one with higher stats will have fewer total points distributed. This means you should generally be on the lookout for items that give as many different benefits as possible rather than waste an equipment slot on something that raises one stat by a large amount.

Reserved 1.

Reserved 2.

Good guide.

One suggestion: Perhaps put a (B)ear and a (C)at before the item that is best for that role for each slot.

ie. Put a (B) before the Warden Staff description so people can see that is the best Bear weapon available.

This means it'll be quicker for people to scan the list and compare the item they have / want to what is considered the "best".

This list is out of date. Now I see that the updated one is no longer available, but google still has it in cache, might be an idea to copy that one instead?

I will make sure to update it, but the thread in the US forums does not contain items links which is something i don't link. I have saved the thread and will do something about it when i get time.

Thank you.
