[Video][Druid] Pericth 2 - LegacyFollow

Warcraft Movies stream.

Delicious Feral Druid PvP video. Excellent editing.

Contains some Battleground action and some dueling. Comes with helpful notifications (telling the viewer what happens off-screen on roots and such).

I should probably add some more information, but really, the stream loads fairly quick and if you're interested in Feral Druid BG/1v1 PvP, it's a good video. It's the last video from Pericth as well, I think. Apparently he or she is leaving the game.

Edit: Silly triple consonant names.

Burst during berserk is just stupid, he cut Theed down like he was nothing and i know that player likes wearing 1400+ resi.

I think he's pretty good, the video just isn't anything like as entertaining as Deep's videos. 1800 ferals wont pay attention to stuff like cyclone on shadowfiend or using clearcast procs for lifebloom. carried by racials a little though, shadowmeld is kitty vanish.

Also, he dies somewhere in the video. I know, right?

Some people like to edit a million hours of footage into 20 minutes of "Look how perfect I am", others just take random stuff and slap together. Personally, I prefer people who don't sugarcoat it. It adds a sense of realism. And yes, not Melding to avoid Lava Bursts and such is lame and very unprofessional, and every other decent Feral Druid would have done it, because everyone knows that Feral Druids are omnipotent and ****.

Again, it's just a nice morale booster for those Feral Druids out there wondering just what the hell Blizzard was thinking when they gave us mediocre damage vs survivability in PvP. And it's the closest video that shows what I enjoy doing in Battlegrounds, namely capping and holding bases for several minutes against multiple opponent. The 1v1 is useless, as are most duels.

And finally, it was all an attempt at getting you to reveal the name of those Deep videos, Theo. Couldn't remember the name.

You should level a Druid to 80, get some PvE gear and then go crit someone actually wearing armor for 15k with Ferocious Bite. Next, go do the same on someone with 1k resilience. I'll be here when you come back.

Hint: Let's start at 6k in full PvP gear, with survivability gems and trinkets, and work our way up from there, okay?

Druids sacrifice damage for survivability. You can't get 40k health and crazy mitigation and push out 15k crits. It's not doable. You'd need close to ArP cap and 11k attack power. And then there's matter of having to blow 5 talent points on a talent that isn't useful for anything except Ferocious Bite. Yeah, no, it's not going to happen. You'd probably be able to get off one of those if you're lucky with procs, but you'd die if a PvP geared player looked at you.

The Druid's strength is its versatility. Our ability to pop in and out of combat, do some damage, leave or take up the fight in Bear Form. Apply bleeds and soak up the damage. That's why I'm running around with stamina gems in my PvE pieces and tank trinket. 15k Bites are no good if you can't survive until you get one off.

More often than not, a 5p Maim is better against healers than a 5p FB, simply because the Maim allows you to get off some Shreds. Rip is preferred against non-healers. Just Rip, Healing Touch/Regrowth and go Bear. Win.



Yes, stealth, heals and plate armor mitigation does that, hence why 1v1 are useless.

Rogues get much better survivability against casters though with cloak and vanishes. Druids can tank melee better, but using heals against caster damage is just a terrible idea cause you'll go oom so quickly. We tank melee and lol at them, burst casters down before they get a chance to breath. Spellcleave is horrible to play against from what i hear.

Ferals are a supreme bg and duel class though, you can go about fighting a given class in a dozen different ways. The instant cast cyclones you get after every 5 point finisher is incredible for 2v1.
