As far as Ledendary items go

[Lilako]

Every class and specc has had one? No ofc not! Where is the Feral druid one? How about something for tanking while they are at it to >.>
I am aware that Thunderfury was a good tanking sword for Warrs back in the day but druid tanks couldn'y use it -.-
We are on the 2nd caster staff and Blizzard don't want to make a one handed tanking mace? Or even a polearm for ferals? (yes I am aware that other classes can use polearms to but it would be the sorta thing with stats that makes it clear to be a feral druid item so hunters who wants all the epics QQ somewhere else.)


Now I know each item needs lore behind it but there have been so many ways they could of added one to date but haven't!?
When you think about it WoW is kinda almost over so how about giving them their items before its to late :c I don't play a feral druid or anything tanking anymore I just find it really unfair for them right now.

I would love to see more love for other classes right now and really our tanks should have something nice by now ...


And if anyone brings up the matter of the LFG tool I will smack you as it has nothing to do with Ledendary items >.<

What the hell has this got to do with anything?

What the hell is your problem?

She just wants to say that feral druids are long over due for a weapon. And let's face it, if ferals have a weapon, we all know hunters will be all, "Lol. Look, totally a hunter weapon. 8D" You know that nifty staff that turned druids into flamey cats? Hunters were all, "HUNTER WEAPON." and druids were all, "Guys, look. It has extra special effects for US. Back the hell off."

And tanks, she says tanks deserve nice things, but I'm not a tank. But I forget, this is a hunter forum and anything not about PETSPETSPETSPETSPETS is irrelevant and pointless. :\

NEED MOAR QQ!
Love anz-nya <3
And its in WoW GENERAL! lawl c:
Ands its not like WoW is coming to a end soon either.
AND MOST OF ALL! Its not like I was talking to someone about this before but in a certain topic you can't de-rail it so I was saving Mods time :B

Common sence is hard :c

I think there was actually a Blizzard comment on this topic somewhere else (or maybe it was a logical user comment, can't remember). Said something about planning a tanking weapon, but that it's gonna be a while. I think the big reason they gave was that because ferals spend all their time in shapeshifts which don't SHOW weapons, it would seem almost like a waste to spend all that time developing a really neat, unique looking weapon just for some awesome stats when no one is ever going to actually SEE it.

Now, with the staff that turns them into a fire kitty, some people have suggested that they make the legendary have an effect that modifies the shapeshift form (again.. this could have been a blizzard post.. not sure if I saw this on the forums, or one of those watercooler posts). The problem that I see with that is that it's going to take well over 3 times as much work as any other legendary. The weapon itself would have to look cool, with an epic quest/raid experience. Then they'd need to do modified versions of ALL affected druid forms, and their animations. Now, I know from personal experience that while quite fun, 3D modelling, and texturing, does take some amount of time. I don't even know about rigging and animating yet as I haven't quite got there yet.

[Azunara]

Well, obviously they need to make ferals carry their weapons in their mouths. :3

"My Problem" is that, while I could certainly list in exceptional detail all of the very many things that I find wrong, unfair, or unjust about the state of resto druids and cataclysm healing in general, this is primarily a hunter board. I would be better served at plusheals or restokin, rather than petopia.

While we are certainly capable of playing alts; alts rarely acquire legendary weapons at any point when said weapon would be remotely relevant.

Second, we are players. No matter how well reasoned or well intentioned your arguments, for or against, may be, there is absolutely nothing we as players can do to make a piece of gear turn orange. In essence, there is zero potential for a positive outcome. What does or does not happen is not, in any way, shape, or form, affected by this thread.

However, there is PLENTY of potential for this thread to negatively affect opinions, cause general dissatisfaction in the game or Activision, and get people to quit playing WoW. Some people, like myself, are already on their last Azeroth trip. We want to enjoy the time we have left, not be constantly reminded that our next, and potentially last, rage quit is only one bad weekend away.

In short, the OP is the sort of post that one is most likely to find on the battlenet forums, and I, for one, come here to avoid that cesspool.

[Azunara]

First: Not once in anyway, shape, or form restos mentioned. This is entirely about ferals and tanks. Cata healing is not relevant in anyway, nor did it have to come up.

Second: OH MY GOD A POST ABOUT OTHER THINGS ON A HUNTER BOARD. I know, if people have issues with it, let's get rid of everything except Pet Discussion and Taming Stories. Then we'd have a primarily hunter board. Till then, that whole "this board is for hunters!" argument doesn't hold squat.

Third: I like how you're assuming my hunter is my main. Cute. Believe it or not, it is not a requirement to have a hunter as your main on this forum. So a feral weapon would be completely relevant to me, as I play a feral druid. The best argument against it so far I've seen is that it wouldn't show up because we shapeshift. Seriously.

Fourth: I fail to understand how you assume as players, we can't do a single thing. Look at Chitter, a spider that was given a name BY PLAYERS. Look at several NPCs named after WoW Players because they had an affect on the game. (The Creator of Rawr, the guy from Wowhead who likes tacos and has a NPC in Shattrath, several Beta testers from WotLK in Icecrown...) So yes, players can and will change this game, and a well thought out suggestion or argument can, in fact, cause change. I know we have a supposed dev here. What if he finds this thread and goes, "Hey! Tank legendary! Damn good idea, I'll tell my buddies and see if they can work on that." BUT WAIT. I forget, this is a hunter primary forum, of course other classes are completely irrelevant and if you dare post anything about anything else, you're wrong. Whoops, sorry folks.

In short: I think you need to realize that just because you don't agree, play the classes, or quitting, doesn't mean other people don't give a damn and you shouldn't snark at them and be all, "What the hell are you talking about? How does this matter?"

Love it Azu,

A feral legendary would be incredibly awesome I think. I kind of think that Fandral's staff should have been bumped up to a cool questline kind of like how the Ancient Purified Leaf was in MC. It would have been fitting since that the Leaf was dropped from Majordomo Executis and since Fandral is the new Majordomo... maybe a cool epic questline to get the staff, instead of the staff just dropping... I ono

[Carnacki]

Actually there was an Atiesh for druids. At the time, druids only rolled as resto. Feral/balance were utterly horrible.

[Cerele]

I don't mind much for legendary items, i just wish theyed make one unbaised

[Insert name here] have a staff and a one handed mace (mace would have different stats)
Melee damage(not sure how to balance this)
socket
socket
socket
socket
Socket bonus (10 of each stat?)
Chance on auto attack, auto shot, and spell cast to proc highest stat (agility, str, intel, spirit) by XXX for XX seconds.


i have no idea how to balance it but this would be a wrough version of it, im pretty sure everyone could use either a 1 handed mace or a staff, sorry rouges be really just for combat ones cause its not a dagger. Feel free to edit this as i again, dont know how to balance said weapon

[Kalliope]

Wow, tone it down. The early posts in this thread are way out of line.

A feral stat stick is relevant to hunters, since it'd be a lovely stat stick for us too, most likely. I'm kind of hoping that there will be a legendary in the future that gives agility options, so druids, enh shammies, hunters, and rogues are covered.

[Kurenio]

Actually the legendary that is said to come in 4.3 is going to go to a low amount of class/spec. So its either a legendary mace for rogue/enhance shammy, a feral druid/hunter staff/polearm, or a hunter ranged weapon.

[Demonium]

erm that fire druid staff. the irony is the stats are far better for hunters than druids.

[SgtMakkie]

The only way to make work is to make the item class specific, just like other legendary items!

As for the hate, read the forum rules!!! Debate is fine, do not attack the Op:)

I also thought that Fandral's staff should apply to any Cat-Pets that the Hunter has. Hunters and Druids can share the love!
