Best Gems for Feral Druid
Due to secondary stat diminishing returns, your gems may fluctuate slightlydepending on what is currently present on your gear, so keep this in mind.
You should make sure to have one Inscribed Illimited Diamondas your single unique Primalist gem. To fill the rest of the slots, you willwant Sensei's Neltharite or Sensei's Alexstraszite in all otherslots. Alternatively, if you find you have enough Mastery but not enough Haste,you can use Keen Neltharite or Keen Ysemerald.
Remember, though, especially at higher gear levels, your stats can and willalter depending on your current gear set. This means you may see more benefitfrom different stat distributions, so you should always aim to sim your characterif you are looking for the ideal picks.

In Season 3 Enchant Weapon - Wafting Devotion has outpaced alternativesin single target and keeps up in AoE. Enchant Weapon - Sophic Devotion is stillvery close behind, and your decision here is mostly down to preference.
The Incandescent Essence is acquired following a quest chainthat begins after defeating Gnarlroot within the new Amirdrassil raid. Thisgrants the Igira's Cruel Nightmare proc effect and can be re-used,so use it as soon as you get one on your head.
Cloak, Bracer, and Boot enchants are personal preferences as they haveno direct impact on performance, but we recommend Avoidance and Staminafor the extra survivability.
While Lambent Armor Kit comes with Versatility instead of Stamina, italso had less Agility compared to Fierce Armor Kit, so it should be avoided.
4.1.
Best Phials and Potions for Feral
Currently, there are 2 options available based on the situation worthconsidering for different reasons:
- Iced Phial of Corrupting Rage — this is generallythe strongest option available, giving a large amount of bonus Critical Strike.The downside, however, can be quite dangerous and reduce its uptime,so be wary of using this if you are uncomfortable in an encounter.
- Phial of Tepid Versatility — numerically weakerthan the alternative, but comes with the advantage of being moreconsistent, alongside providing a small damage reduction benefit. It isalso much cheaper!
Elemental Potion of Ultimate Power (or the cheaper Elemental Potion of Powervariant) is your recommended potion in all situations. Thesepotions can also be obtained from a Potion Cauldron of Ultimate Power/ Potion Cauldron of Power,so long as you have five Primal Chaos to convert intopotions.
Potion of Shocking Disclosure has some niche benefits for mass AoEsituations in Mythic+ if you do not want to pay the high price for otherpotions but is generally weaker.
Dreamwalker's Healing Potion is the healing potion of choice. Usingthis has a 5-minute cooldown, but multiple can be consumed in an extended bossfight should it go on long enough. You can also use Potion of Withering Dreamsin emergencies, but be wary of how much damage it deals after being used.
Additionally, Warlock's Healthstones do not share acooldown with other healing consumables. Remember to use it as well ifyou are holding one!
Lastly, Alchemy has some more niche potions thatcan be used even if you are dead. Keeping some Residual Neural Channeling Agenthandy in case you need to wait for a battle resurrection can be usefulto still get value out of your potion cooldown should you die early.
4.2.
Best Food for Feral
Ideally, we use Thousandbone Tongueslicer at higher gear levels, howeverother stat combinations can also work depending on your gear. Alternatively,you can use feasts provided by your group ( Grand Banquet of the Kalu'ak,for example).
4.3.
Weapon Enhancement Consumables for Feral Druid
Your weapon enhancement consumable of choice is Buzzing Runeor Hissing Rune for Critical Strike or Mastery respectively. Yourchoice will come down to your current stat distribution on your gear.
4.4.
Augment Runes for Feral
In addition, if you can afford it, you should use Draconic Augment Runes toincrease your primary stat. Since there is a finite amount of the consumablerunes available, you should make sure to use them wisely and to stock up on themfor when you need them.
Through the new Emerald Dream Zone and its Dream WardensFaction, you can also obtain the Dreambound Augment Rune, which ispermanent!
