Feral Stats

Weapon DPS > Agility > Resilience > 195 Spell Penetration > 5% Melee Hit > Mastery > Critical

• Agility is by far your best overall stat. Forget Str, Int, Spirit.
• Reforge Expertise and Haste into Hit (to 5%) and Crit.
• Resilience is your best defensive stat. Your gear should provide enough, but if you need more then you can gem and enchant for it.
• Spell Pen is important for landing certain spells. The Cloak enchant and a couple of +50 gems should be enough.

Gems

Agility gems in all slots, ignoring socket bonuses. Unless you want more Resilience. If you can’t afford the new (as of 4.3) epic gems then dropping down one level is not a big DPS loss and you will save a lot of gold. (If you need more gold, see our gold guide.)
