No way!!

[Xeltentat]

No way!!

Expand on that.
It has eclipse, it has many important balance talents, and it has Survival of the fittest from Feral!
Expand on why you think it wouldn't work.

[shags the penguin]

no... SP vs agi crit just dont work... there is no gains in this spec.

[Xeltentat]

The gain is for the 6% ireaseto all attributes really.

Why suck at two things when you can be good at one?

[Rakydei]

So let me get this straight, you wanna give up on a ton of damage, just so you can spend 28 points in feral to get +6% int and +6% spirit? Hell, even getting just improved motw gives you 2% increased int/spi, while you dont need to spend 25 talent points on useless talents

Because you cant have 2 sets of gear at the same time... if you pick a balance set then feral wont have any damage/crit which it needs for any CC ability, you have eclipse + NG which make up 80% of the damage but due to the damage in pvp you wont be able to benefit as much, you gain 6 % stats + SI.

If this isn't for pvp then why bother duel spec balance/feral and stop caring.

sorry but druid hybrid specs right now aren't worth it ( thats anything over 30 points in another tree )
the normal set are ofc fine... specing a few points into resto for omen of clarity ect..

[Xeltentat]

Well, it was just a thought that came to mind earlier, I udnerstand your points though.

If i used this, id only be using balance gear, as i siad, it's mainly for the increase (horrible typo earlier) of 6% to all attributes.

[Braindamage23]

No, this will work http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?sham...8gtmPpg,,10747

[Xeltentat]

Considerign how I was asking about druids, yes, that would be very viable.

[Cerelli]

why the hell specc 28 points into feral if ur playing chiken? gues a balance/resto combo might work, for PvP.Why? Both of the needs spellpower and int. for feral and balance u will both meele and caster gear to do something, and if u found a way to equip to set of gear at the same time, then you found a way to make this work, if not this will never work

http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?sham...8gtmPpg,,10747

this works. why? because both specc is caster specces

[Cerus]

That spec is NOT viable at all be it PvP or PvE. You gain more from imp MotW, E&M, FoN, CF etc etc than you do from the measly 6% to attributes that you gain by wasting 25 points in Feral.

So to answer you threads question, no, Feral Moonkin is NOT viable.

But what would you actually gain from that? If we look at my pure stats, right now, +6% would give me a grand total of:

25,98 spirit or 8,66 spellpower and 68,82 intellect or 8,2584 spellpower, for a grand total of 17 more spellpower. Staggering!

How do you think your 17-spellpower-for-28-talent-points compare to the +13% damage you would get from Earth and Moon? The 3% haste you lose from Celestial Focus? The 3% hit and crit from Imp. Faerie Fire? Heck, you even have four points wasted in genesis, the crappiest DPS talent in all of the balance tree.

How did you reckon this would be worth anything?

[getefix]

Never assume you have an original thought. It's either A: already thought of and being used or B: really god damn stupid.

Also, Getefix speaks the truth

What Qieth said. The talents you've picked from feral hardly support your main spec as boomkin. You've basically taken the feral survival talents at the cost of a lot of boomkin damage and boomkin survival talents. Trade-off isn't worth it, imo.
