Feral by Night - The feral druid addon (only for level 80 Feral Druid) Thanks to Daefecator from EJ forum who fixed trinkets and glyph! THANKS TO KAELBEAR FROM EJ FORUM, FBN IS UPDATED TO THE LATEST PATCH (4.01)! This version is just a 'working version', the cycle doesn't take into account some of the newest talents but atleast it works! Please be patient, it will be updated soon for the Xpac! In one addon you will have a suggestion monitor for the next move, debuff/buff monitor, stat frame, trinket monitor, energy, omen of clarity, rage, casting bar and many other goodies. You can access interface options with '/fbn' from the console.
Give a shot at the Video guide by Beefbeater: Remember to lock the frame! The addon has different component: - proc tracker: it will automatically track temporary buff (hysteria, ToT, MD), your trinket procs (with hidden CD) and your weapon proc. - suggester panel where you can see the best move to do. For the cat version embended with the prediction frame where you can see the next move 1 second in the future depending on 1 cp or 2 cps generation, while on the left side you can see avaible dps cd like Tiger's Fury and Berserk. For the bear version, you'll see on the right side, insteead of future move, the barkskin icon when avaiable and the 'maul suggester'. - a 'real stats' panel (your real crit vs. Bosses, your real armor pen value considering sunders, etc.
And so on, the panel change on the fly and it's used to compute the best ability for the suggestion panel). It works only if you target something. - an hud: mana, energy, rage, threat, life, boss casting bar. Al with color changing due to status.
- 3 cooldown monitor: 1 for survival and long CDs and the other 2 that switch between bear and cat and take care of timers. - An Omen of Clarity graphic frame (the large frame at the center of the screen) - A Savage Roar / Cooldown frame (numbers) center high.
- A Combo point / Lacerate stack to the left high. - An Energy/Rage Frame to the right high. - a notice frame with different icons near the hud, combined with the boss mod: hourglass: wait for energy to regen. Lifebelt: use survival cd round arrows: turn to the back alarm clock: is time for someone else to taunt your mob up arrow: out of range down arrow: go away from here! Right arrow: kitte the mobe or strafe green check: go all out with dps!
Forbid: can't use that now bell: pay attention at this situation! Yellow allert: 90% tank threat red allert: 100% tank threat - A boss mod that let you select some energy saving for particular situation, boss to interrupt, boss with mangle only and some cycle change due to particular fights. - 2 boss mod frame that let you show boss fight specific buff/debuff (left), and yours fight specific buff/debuff.
From the interface option you can: show/hide each frame change font type and size of each frame change size of each frame lock/unlock the frame and move them Change the cycle selecting the expected number of SR combo point, if you want to use shred and so on. Everything else (rake vs. Shred and everything else) is autoselected based on your gear, spec and buffs. To Do: add a profile manager add a grow up/down/left/right and bar for the cd monitors Known issue: the addon can crash if you are not feral specced if you deactivate and reactivate the addon (before logging) it reset the frame position to default. Boss Mod is still under testing.
The Cat Guide Cat Form First off lets take a look at Cat Form. Blizzard describes it as 'Cat Form Shape shift into Cat form to increase attack speed and gain the use of various Cat abilities. This form has an innate threat reduction component. The cat is much like the Rogue. You should read the Rogue Basics page for more details on how to play a Rogue. Many Cat abilities are similar to Rogue abilities. Cat form is best for soloing and for party use.
If you're a Rogue player, you can appreciate how useful this form can be. Feline Swiftness regains its speed increase when moving from indoors to outdoors. ' I find this pretty ironic since Feline Swiftness works indoors now and was renamed to Feral swiftness (correct me if i'm wrong though.) Anyways there's also a basline formula to how Cat AP is derived. It is #Attack Power is increased by the formula: (Strength x 2) + Agility + (Character Level x 2) - 20 Now looking at that you may say well Strength is 2 times as effective we should just stack that right? If this was pre-3.1 the numbers would agree with you. But since 3.1 both Armor Penatration (known as ArP from hereon) and Agility (Agi from hereon) are significantly better then strength.
Reason behind the numbers - Since 3.1 both Savage Roar (our main uptime buff ability) and rip (out main DoT) have been overhauled. Our Rip can now crit (making Agility more favorable in itself over Strength since Agility gives Crit rating as well). Our Savage Roar is 30% Damage increase instead of 40% attack power (AP derives directly into Strength ergo making Strength more favorable pre 3.1; Since it is a straight damage increase AGI > STR because of the crit.) Also on topic of druid form to cat form ratios; our weapon gives us Feral AP directly from the weapon's DPS or ilvl. It's 14 feral AP per DPS point - 54 If i remember correctly. This will let you figure out what's best for you as you progress through the game.
