I went 5/5 with Feral Aggression. I use Cat form a lot and the +15% damage to my Ferocious Bite is well worth it. Makes the bite better than the DoT Rip.(Good for PvP but also good for PvE)

Honestly, the biggest reason I carry it is incase I get into some trouble be it 2 on 1 (which normally isn't a big deal for me in Cat form now) or 3 on 1 etc. I can switch over to caster, heal, cast rejuv and regrowth, then switch to bear form and use demoralizing roar (5/5 Feral Aggression increases by 40%) and easily take 3, 4 or sometimes even 5 guys at once.

Plus what else are you going to spend 5 points it on? Maybe Ferocity if it decreased the cost by 10 but 5 points just isnt worth it for me in Cat Form.

**cut and copied from the other thread where Meen asked the same question**

The problem with Feral Aggresion is there's only 51 talent pts to be spent and alot of desirable talents.

Here's 3 reasons I personally favor Ferocity > Feral Aggresion.

1) Bear is helped alot by the 5 rage pt reductions... bear is our bread and butter... you can say you favor cat all you want, bear is the power house.

2) How much more defense does bear need? I use demoralizing roar... but with bear's already obscene AC, I find I get enough damage mitigation from gear/bear as is. FB + 15% damage is nice, and if they were just giving it away I'd take it... but as it is I favor Rip as my combo move, particularly in pvp where usually I only open with cat. Now if it were 15% to ravage.....

3) As I already said, what do you give up for it? Furor? Natural weapons? Ferocity?


The only reason to take Feral Aggresions is if you want to be the best bear tank there is... if your worried about DPS... you'd do better getting Furror or Natural Weapons in Resto/balance then overloading Feral.

i chose both ferocity and feral aggression - i guess what i dumped was feral instinct. theres no way we are better tanks than warriors, so i let them do their job and focus on the stuff druids are good at.

I took feral instinct for PvP. I am pretty much never spotted in PvP while stealthing, I can walk up to someone my level from the front and just sit there and they'll never see me between shadowmeld and this talent.
