It's feral dps, it's the way it is. I haven't seen ferals do much more tbh. Also wrong section

Cat DPS Rotation I'm assuming the following talent build, which should maximize DPS in a raid setting. I'm assuming that an arms warrior or bear tank is not available, and thus that Mangle is necessary and by extension, Improved Mangle worthwhile.

Build: Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft

Obviously this isn't a hybrid build viable for tanking. A typical tank build would drop Feral Aggression and probably Master Shapeshifter in exchange for Feral Instinct, Thick Hide, and Protector of the Pack at a minimum.

As I understand it, the best DPS rotation for a cat with this spec is determined by a priority chain of ability use that works like this:

1. Keep up Rake
2. Keep up Mangle
3. If both are up, Shred for combo points
4. Use Tiger's Fury at 25 energy or less
5. Use OoC procs to Shred over a Rip/FB
6. Use only 5-CP finishers
7. Keep up Savage Roar
8. Keep up Rip
9. If Rip and SR are up and Rip has more than 4-5 seconds left, FB
10. Berserk on cooldown, ideally when at 80-90 energy with TF up

Is this approximately accurate? Is Mangle worth using over Shred with Imp. Mangle? With Imp. Mangle and 2pc Tier 6 (for a 29-energy Mangle)? Where do we go from here?

The cycle I've been settling into is basically to keep Mangle and Rake up and rotate 5-CP SR, Rip, and FB finishers. This is putting me in the top 5 of the DPS charts when I'm in full DPS gear and don't have to offtank anything during the fight. The cycle is a little tight and seems like it would be much smoother if I had somewhat more crit for extra CP generation. Any thoughts?

I figure we can use this thread for discussion and analysis of the cycle and optimization on the current models and simulators. Go nuts!
