hey all, got a quick question for u smart droods out there.

Im doing areana/pvp as feral {yea i know, i know... feral?} and currently have 2 pieces of tier-4 for the set bonus. I was wondering if i need to keep the tier-4 or replace it with s3 gear to pvp with. I didnt know if the added resilance and the stats would make them comparable to the sweetness that is tier-4.

thanks guys,
Mac

S3 > T4, imo, If im on my Rogue and i see anyone on the opising team without pvp gear on i know its an easy kill even if its only one piece (99% of the time)

We have a ferel druid in my guild and he says the same, but i think the stats in the s3 gear are far superior to the T4 2 set bonus but i may be wrong

Wear all your PvP gear. If you only have 3 pieces so far, wear those and keep your 2pcT4 until you can get your 4pc arena bounus. The extra speed is def worth it (especially as more arena gear = more resilience as well).

As you gather arena gear, simply prioritize it so you replace slots other than your t4, but you should eventually be in full arena gear. The resil and arena set bonus do a lot for pvp, and you're not necessarily gimping yourself on damage too much with s3 since the stats aren't that bad.

Also, you may want to consider getting a better trinket to replace the Skyguard Silver Cross, to get more survivability (Battlemaster's Determination or Battlemasters Cruelty) or for more dps on command (Berserker's Call, Figurine - Shadowsong Panther, or any others you may get from raids, instances, or crafts)

yeah i was sorta wondering that my self on what gear to use. i am feral atm so went with my buddy who is holy pally we finished 5-5 but we are only like 1340 rateing atm we lost the last two in a row we was up to 1392 rateing. i notice my dps is alot slower than some other combos. seems normaly if we out last the start of 2 dpsers we can take them. if a healer and dps it's alot harder. i'm not pvp spec at all just norm feral set up.

As feral, you need to learn to use all your interrupts to lock down a healer. Get your opener in, maim when they start a heal, go bear and back off so you can feral charge the next one, go cat so you can maim the next one, cyclone the next one, restealth to get in another opener, maim again, feral charge, etc. By doing this forever, you can kill a healer (other than a druid, good luck interrupting a druid) just because they can't cast anything but instants. Ferals are weak against holy pallies, though. Plate + bubble/heal just sucks.
