Fix Druid's Predatory Strikes

by monzey » Mon Jun 01, 2015 8:30 pm

There seems to be a major bug concerning the "Predatory Strikes" talent points found in the Druids feral talent tree.

Choosing 5 points in this specific talent, should give you ~150% additional melee attack power*

Nomally I would think that you have 100% AP at all times, and therefore this talent is something you can add to your current 100%, which would mean = 250% AP total. (when in forms)

So if I am not wrong, which I am not, an item providing 20 AP, should (when transforming into cat or bear) actually give 50 AP? (20*250%)
It has been my exp. that this is not working on this server, and therefore the 5 talent points is a complete waste to use here.

Please fix this soon, the feral druids really needs the increased AP to make it up for weapon procs, poisons etc..
Otherwise it is obvious that they can't DPS nearly as good as other classes.

Use citations on your math as well or else you mind as well have your bug report thrown in the trash.
Here's your formula so you can determine if the talent is indeed working or your math is off.

I am currently waiting for an email to verify my account on the bug repport website.
Thanks, I will post my shit there instead.
That said; I was unable to find an ID to put on the category, any help there?

Regarding your other website link... It is not really answering what I was asking to be quite honest.
It is not providing any useful information as such. There are almost no druid weapons aviable with a DPS higher than 54,8 at this point. Not for the common man, who havent got the time to farm rank 14.

I tested the attack power thing in game.

I have a neck with 20 AP on it. It only gives 20 AP, no matter what form I am in.
This leads me to think that the talent is broken.
The talent it "leads" to [Heart of the Wild] is working propperly though. (20% extra strenght in catform)
I got a necklace with 10 strenght on it. It gives 12 strenght in catform ~ 24 AP.

Another thing Im quite corious about is actually if the Predatory Strikes should just take your total AP from all gear and such (not buffs ofc) and then *2,5.. or if it should only do it with "pure" AP from gear, and not the AP gained from strength and agility..

Use a gmail account. You should receive a verification email instantly. If not, use another SMTP service.
As for finding the talent, I would use the spell for this: http://db.vanillagaming.org/?spell=16972 and file it under "Class".

I didn't really read the feral AP. Suggest using the player AP to determine where it adds the +x% AP by reversing the formula.

I think you might be wrong here. Predatory Strikes says it increases your AP by 150% of your level. So at 60, you gain 60*1.5ap. The talent is unaffected by gear, I believe.
