Does HoJ work with feral druids

I am puzzled at whether this works with ferals or not. Some people say with confidence that it does, then some people say that it doesnt. Has anyone gotten HoJ and used it as a feral druid?

I doubt it, considering it means giving up either Mark of Tyranny, or Smoking Heart of the Mountain, both of which are amazing for physical damage encounters.

It's flat 2% chance on hit. That means every time you hit something, there is a 2% chance it will proc and give you another white hit. That just means that, on average, you will get 2 extra attacks out of every 100 melee attacks that land.

It will be a 2% chance in bearform, catform and casterform. It some times procs twice on two consequite white hits(so it doesn't seem to have any internal cooldown), other times you can beat on something for a long time without it proccing, it's the same for both bear and cat.

It is not worth it to use for threat generation, I'd keep on your normal tank trinkets and use a DPS weapon (like bonecrusher mace(+30 str and +1% crit) or Impervious giant (has 30 armor, +1% hit and +2% crit) for threat generation, then switch to your tanking weapon when necessary. Switching weapons instead of trinkets has the advantage that you can switch back to a tank weapon even while you tank.
