In this Episode of Cat Chat we look at the upcoming new raid, Battle for Dazarlor, discuss new traits, how the 8.1 changes have turned out in regards to talent balance (Small Sabertooth Rant), and talk about what we think optimal setups will be.
Apologies for the delay in schedule but with BOD on the horizon we should be back to the normal monthly schedule going forwards.

Spreadsheet Link
For proper Bloodtalons usage, you want to buff the abilities that will do the most damage per cast, also known as damage per execute (DPE). In a single target scenario, this is easily done by using it on your finisher and Rake (which will be your second most damaging ability). However, with more targets the priority will change.
This spreadsheet will provide both the DPE and damage per energy (DPR) for all abilities including talents.

In this Episode of Cat Chat we look at changes in 8.1 PTR and some brief discussion of yesterday’s Azerite hotfixes. It’s important to note as we do in the video but these changes are datamined, and as such they’re not final. If you have any feedback please submit it on the forums!
Datamining can be found here

General Feral Opener Sequence Note about openers An opener is not a big part of your dps. To most this might be immediately obvious, but a lot of people tend to vastly overrate the importance of a good opener. With that caveat out of the way, here is the current reference opener which we intend to keep up-to-date through the expansion. If you have any ideas about how to improve this opener, feel free to contact me.

In this (emergency) Cat Chat Xanzara and Guiltyas discuss the 5 minute old feral hotfixes and their notes for the future.
Quick summary: These are not primarily number changes, they don’t intended to buff/nerf us. Its more about gameplay feel. These type of changes would typically occur on PTR or during Betas - it is very rare that Blizzard do these kinds of changes mid-patch via hotfixes. We should probably be grateful that Blizzard is at all willing to make these types of adjustments right now and we look forward to near guranteed “mini-rework” in a future patch.

In this episode of CatChat we’re joined by Nick and Tettles from Moonkin Monthly (also found on Dreamgrove.gg) to talk about who “won” prepatch and some other thoughts on BFA.
With the PrePatch live now and no changes since last episode we thought we’d have a bit of a fun episode with our owl friends and just talk about some of our thoughts on BFA.

In this episode of CatChat (Which is a little late sorry), we discuss Feral’s AOE going into BFA and how we feel about it.
We discuss (and rant a bit) about AOE, Utility and our concerns for Mythic+, as well as some discussion about tuning (which who knows could fix everything). With the added bonus of our views on the new animations in the third episode of Cat Chat!

We discuss (and rant a bit) about the current state of changes, just how much we dislike the GCD change with regards to Tigers Fury, our opinion of Tigers Dash, and much more in the second ever episode of Cat Chat.

Ferals! We have decided to ~~totally rip off the boomkins~~ create an ongoing, probably monthly, chat between Me [Guiltyas], Xanzara and possibly various guests for the Dreamgrove.gg site. We intend to cover a wide array of feral-related topics and hopefully create good discussion/share our thoughts on any relevant feral news. This is our first episode, where we discuss the 7.3 changes to feral and our thoughts on them, what was good and what was less good.
