Which weapon to pick?

[winterpie101]

Hi guys,

I'm only 100 honour shy of being able to buy my feral druid a wrathful weapon and finally upgrade from my tower of the mouldering corpse. I know that the wrathful gladiator's staff seems like the obvious choice but I was wondering if the bonegrinder or pike are any good for feral?

Any advice would be appreciated.

imo get the staff. crit + agil(ap/crit)+ stams the same > just ap + same stats.

edit====

the only difference obviously is the topend but i dont believe that impacts a feral druid( i dont play one)

The only number to look at for determing an effect on a feral's dps is the DPS on the weapon, the bottom/top end are totally ignored.

That is to say, besides the actual stats.

Weapon increases have been normalized with other melee classes; no longer does a weapon upgrade equate to the entire upgrade of the rest of your gear set. Weapon dps now only effects white damage, shred and mangle; all other attacks (which is the majority of our damage), scale with our attack power.

This is actually a good thing; you no longer have to sit there frustrated at how bad your damage is on a new tier until you get your weapon, then blow everyone else out of the water for a month while other people catch up and fill out the rest of their gear.
