Spell Summary of a Feral Druid

If you are new to Feral, we recommend reading this page before proceeding to get a grasp of all of the tools available to the specialization. This page explains each specific ability and the tools Feral has access to, both baseline and on both talent trees. It also provides abbreviations commonly used by the community for each ability, which is the best starting point for getting to grips with the moving parts of Feral.

If you are leveling as Feral, you will likely only have access to some of the abilities listed here once you reach higher levels. However, our dedicated leveling guide explains what to aim for and when you will unlock specific tools:

Feral Druid's Main Resources

Feral comes with a dual resource system of Energy and Combo Points. Energy fuels the majority of your abilities, most of which either generate a Combo Point (builders), such as Shred Icon Shred, or spend your Combo Points (finishers), such as Rip Icon Rip. You come with a baseline cap of 100 Energy (which can be altered through some talents and effects) that slowly regenerates each second, scaling with your Haste rating. Combo Points are spent all at once on your finishers, and the intensity of your finishers is based on how many Combo Points were consumed (up to the maximum of 5).

Having access to some quick Macros and Addons that can make gameplay smoother is always helpful, and you can find some on our dedicated page below:
