The Enigma Order

updated with info about new changes to the feral tree

thats a spec that focus on mangle spam?

shredding attacks are just to good to pass up imo.

Pounce, mangle, shred and a FB or mangle to finish up the mob.

also, master shapeshifter isnt _that_ good, that it should eliminate talents from the feral tree

berserk will be changed alot, so hold your horses for the next build

about "farming multiple mobs". from experience i think it goes faster to just run to 1, dps it down and go for the next. With my gear, a mob usually goes down in less than 5 secs.
With our nerf to armor, you will take alot more dmg now, from multiple mobs in catform, so survival vise 1 mob at the time will also be wisest.

its to make it harder for cats to reach the avoidance cap.
Take this talent and you got your cat dodge

updated with the talent changes from build 8970 on the beta

did some testing today.

FFF is now trainable, and have been changed to the better. When you use it in bearform, you do dmg + threat with it, which is awsome.
Barskin is castable in forms. It still looks ugly and going through your head like before, but its a buff to tanks none the less (not to mention catform survival)
Survival instincts - new talent. 5 min CD and raises hp with 30% - usable in both cat and bear

shred and mangle have been changed.
old shred - new Shred
old Mangle - new Mangle

Uhh nice must have missed the part about FFF doing damage too, though it was only extra threat.

Mangle bear/cat don't give buff to shred/maul anymore.

Survival instincts is very nice, that and barskin change is very welcome when leveling close to trigger happy horde.

Haven't done so much testing on PTR, but did try some lvl 71 mobs, got 3 on me and killed them very fast without loosing much hp, so the boost in dps is noticeable.

Haven't really picked a lvl'ing build yet, still "alot" of changes/tweaking going on, but going for max damage and any talents that boost my survival in cat, putting in some tanking talents when/if there is any need for it in any of the leveling instances.

the reason they changed mangle is, that warriors get a similar ability.

its not like warriors get mangle, but they get some ability that does the same "30% on bleeds"
Imagine if that was up, preventing the mangle debuff. that would meen a huge nerf in druid dps.

this actually serves as a buff, since you can be lucky and dont need to keep up mangle that much anymore

some changes in the trees now, so my old builds aint valid anymore.

two new suggestions :

5/0/56
3/0/58

If 3.0 was live today I would have specced the 3/0/58 I think

edit: lol, actually turned out to be the same even if some of the talents had changed

11/0/60

Cant wait to bring my druid to an instance with this spec at 80. (after Boltan is properly set for 80 ofc)
