Weapon effects on feral formsFollow

After reading the Druid 101 thread (which was awesome, by the way), there are still a few things about feral forms that I'd like to know. Bonus points for links to feral guides or previous threads (since I'm way too lazy to search through all the "rate my feral build!" threads).

  • How does weapon speed affect attack speed in bear and cat forms?
  • How does weapon damage affect attack damage in bear and cat forms?
  • How does weapon skill affect attack skill, damage, and crit chance in bear and cat forms?
  • What is the difference between the Bear and Dire Bear forms?
  • Do these pants make my *** look big?
  • Is there any real advantage to different types of weapons (e.g. two-handed maces vs. daggers) in the different feral forms?


Thanks in advance for the help.

Weapon speed has no effect on bear or cat form speed, it is a constant 2.5 speed for bear and 1.0 speed for cat.
Weapon damage has no effect on bear or cat form, bear and cat form have their own base dps.
Weapon skill has nothing to do with bear or cat form, they use feral skill which is always 5x lvl.
Dire bear form is the same as bear form with the exception of added armor, its pretty much our transition of mail -----> plate.
Use whatever weapon combo gives you the best stats, its all that matters.

If you tell me what you are looking to do with your druid i can make a talent build/suggestions for you

In my eyes, Feral Combat is one of the easiest talent trees in the game to figure out, so I should be fine when it comes to my talent build. Thanks for all the info, rate-ups for you.

Just one more question though:

Quote:

What modifies this DPS? Is it the standard Strength for bear form (like warriors) and Agility for cat form (like rogues), or some combination of the two?

It doesn't.

Dire Bear has more armor percentage boost (400% vs 180%, I believe)
No, your fat *** makes your *** looks big.
In TBC, Feral Attack Power tends to be on staves, as well as a couple of 2H maces. Other than that it's just stats.

EDIT: Druids always get 2 AP per point of strength. In cat form we also get 1 AP per point of agility.

Always happy to help. Well, not always to help, but I'm always heppy to whine, and helping people gives me something to whine about.
